Have you switched from Tegretol to Lithium? This will help a lot.

Depression and anxiety is a mixed presentation of bipolar disorder. The feeling you are having that you are losing touch with reality is called 'derealization' and is a common symptom of anxiety.

Also, the feeling you are detached from yourself in conversation, as if someone else is speaking is called 'depersonalization' and also comes as a consequence of high anxiety states. Depression can also cause this feeling.

Don't worry about being psychotically depressed-you'd be deluded or hallucinating.

You need a better mood stabilizer and something to help with your anxiety.
