Please show me example sentences with jag mig. In The Life of Pi that is translated to Swedish, the first sentence is “När mitt lidande var över kände jag mig sorgsen och deprimerad” why does it say “Jag mig”? doesn’t that mean “I me”? . Tell me as many daily expressions as possible.

It's reflexive. Think of it like "myself". I gave myself a treat. I asked myself if this is what I wanted.
You'll find several more verbs that do this frequently.

@Faye_K The order of the sentence is changed.
Normally we would say:
Jag känner mig trött.
But if we add something that can change the order of the words, for example:
Då känner jag mig trött.
In English we don’t do that, so I understand that it’s complicated. You should look up some exercises on the order of words in a sentence compared to English because I can’t really explain it very well even though I’m Swedish :( It’s just one of those things that you have to learn.
