Vampire?
That's something I've never understood - How do vampires ever manage to get a decent shave when they don't have reflections?
That's why they have underlings. It's like the scene from The Untouchables.

Oh, it can be absolutely terrifying. I have a huge mirror next to my computer, and I'm getting nervous just glancing at it, without even being able to see my reflection.

I know, that's why you should never look in one, not even for a second. Sometimes you can fall through.
Not to another dimension. Usually just into the wall, as pieces of glass imbed themselves in your skin.

When I look in the mirror I have to fix my hair 'cause I can never get it the way I want it.

And I creep myself out.

I get lost in the bottomless pit of frigid black that is my heart, if that's what you mean.
But depersonalisation... Nope, never.

And feel slightly frightened as you peer into the eyes of the person looking back at you? So you're compelled to look away, and when you do, you just have to look back again even though you know you're only going to creep yourself out?
Wow. Just wow. I look into the mirror to do my hair, shave, and see if my nose is clear.

It sounds to me like you are describing "the uncanny" - a sense that something is both familiar and foreign, and therefore unsettling.
There's a lot of literary analysis about it out there - even Freud wrote an essay about it (of course, he related it all back to fears of castration - typical Freud).
