Hey everyone! You can ABSOLUTELY recover. I promise you! Just try your very best to go about your life as normal and trust that everything will be okay, because everything IS okay. You got this and I believe in you. I went through hell last year and now it’s difficult for me to fully remember exactly what that felt like. I can’t believe I’m able to say that now because I had soooo much doubt. You WILL recover. I know it. Love you all!

"Unnecessary anxiety and DP/DR will take up only as much space as you give them." This is so true!!!

I´m currently going through this. It´s tough, really tough, but your videos are so calming to me, even the comments. Everyone thanks for these comments it´s really good to know that someone got through this. Everyone who has DP/DR.. you´re not alone and we will recover. Thank you guys.❤

I absolutely love the part about the overly-analytical part, and overthinking. That was me two years ago, and learned so much since then!!!

Guys, no one in my life knows I have Dpdr, I’m battling on my own. May we all recover by God’s grace. Don’t lose hope , I know it’s difficult situation

I HAVE MADE A 100% RECOVERY. I haven't even thought of derealisation for half a year now, even though I went through hell with it last year. Everything fell apart around me, I thought I had gone insane, entered another dimension, everything felt absolutely terrifying, dark, devoid of hope and I felt like I got stuck in a place that I couldn't exit evem through death. I had brutal intrusive thoughts all day every day about dying, freaking out about philosophocal questions of consciousness, reality and afterlife. I thought I was gone forever. But day after day, I actually spent more and more time with my normal self. By following Shaun's guide, not stopping my life and gritting my teeth even though I thought I am literally going mad actually helped me make a COMPLETE recovery. Stop researching, stop looking at forums, stop analysing your thoughts, stop trying to engage with and interact with your scary thoughts. They mean absolutely nothing, they are a symptom of anxiety. You do not have to address the content of them, ever. I have forgotten so much about derealisation, that I have only come back to this channel to leave this comment here to give hope to others. YOU WILL MAKE A COMPLETE COMEBACK AND YOU WILL BE A 100% YOURSELF. You might not believe it right now but believe someone who had it so bad they wanted to kill themselves and STILL MADE IT TO THE OTHER SIDE. It's beautiful on this side and I can't wait for you guys to arrive here as well! Life is beautiful, you are NEVER alone and nothing is as dark as it may seem now. Hold on, the darkness PASSES FOREVER. ❤

I find that constantly checking my mental state and questioning how I feel is keeping me in the loop. I’m just not sure how to quit doing that.

This man has been so important in my life its crazy.

Yes, I felt that I thought I couldn't remember what normal felt like but when it lifted it felt like heaven 🎉

Dear Shaun, what a blessing you are! I have a suggestion for a video, on how we experience emotions and experiencing some but not (yet) others. Understanding that will be helpful because it's confusing. For me the DP is just being in my own bubble all the time with severe focus and memory issues and a bit of an empty mind with less emotion. Does that sound like DP? It's like I can't take in any information, remember ANYTHING but I do feel real or pretty much myself, but just like I can't really remember my identity. When it first happened I felt like I was unreal and all my emotion was gone and I thought I was dead or in psychoses. That faded pretty quickly and now I can feel love sometimes, although it feels weird and a bit detached, but I still can't really feel emotional PAIN. And when I feel love, it's sometimes hard to understand why. I used to have ptsd and big triggers, now I don't feel those at all. It's like I suddenly don't care. Is that normal? It feels like I don't have ptsd anymore but I actually kind of miss it, it was better than this. And that was authentic. Will all that come back? Because I still want to actually to deal with that. Have a lovely day!!

Man I love u! I personally suffered from DPDR are just one month ago for me. It really was my drinking behaviour. I had my first panic attack being strongly hung over in the Metro, and after that I had to deal with anxiety for about one month. the anxiety went on and off, so when I was feeling good, I went out to drink like I would normally do and every time after I would wake up with a bad hangover and a really strong feeling of anxiety. Then after a couple of weeks when I thought I had cured my anxiety I went out drinking once again and that time I had the biggest anxiety attack in my life, after that the DPDR kicked in. strangely I knew that feeling from somewhere. it was because I already had to deal with DPDR one year ago from a bad weed experience, which lasted for about 3 month, with only one symptom, which was I was afraid to look into the mirror. After a couple of days, I could finally recognise this feeling and knew it was DPDR again, which led me straight to your channel. The only weird thing was that this time the derealisation was really different then from the weed experience( By the way I quit smoking weed since I had the bad weed experience) and the DPDR, which I had back then went by pretty quickly, but this time the derealisation was linked to anxiety which was really weird and a really new way of derealisation to me. The scariest symptoms for me were that when talking to my mum on my phone, I just zoned out and was thinking about like how she’s not real and how it is possible that I know this person and stuff like that. The other very very frightening symptom I had were the weird thoughts I always had. always when I was watching a movie, or looking through social media. I questioned everything I saw the whole existence of humanity. Everything. sometimes I would even get an anxiety attack from those thoughts in my own room And then the walls were closing in on me so I really didn’t know where to go if I already get a panic attack laying in my bed which then resulted in more panic. It felt like I was stuck in my head with these scary thoughts and the only way to escape seemed suicide to me in these moments even though I never was or have been suicidal in my life, but after I found your channel and followed your depersonalisation manual and informed myself enough, I knew everything I had to know .then I quit the alcohol drinking, and since then I am nearly fully recovered. I get better every and every day I learnt a lot about anxietey and depression. I learnt about how to accept the feeling and how to not be afraid of it, even though sometimes it was hard to manage. but yes summing up I can say that this was the scariest experience in my life, but I’m telling you guys never give up never lose Hope. I really hit the rock bottom of my life and thought this wouldn’t get better any day soon and look at me now I’m super happy again living life to the fullest and I’m telling you guys that you will recover 100% for me, what helped was listening to a lot of music, painting, A lot of cooking, eating healthy, mediating, going for runs (everything which helps anxiety) and facing my fears, meeting up with a lot of friends, even though it’s not really a comfortable experience. I still did it and that would push me forward so much, which I think made me recover so fast. but believe me when I say this once again I was laying on my bed crying talking to my mum. The worst feeling was that was while I was crying on the phone talking to my mum. I had a feeling of talking to a complete stranger which is also really weird and a frightening experience, I thought I was stuck in my mind forever, I even had suicidal thoughts but I’m telling you guys as hopeless, As frightening as it is you will recover! It’s just a question of training your mind into accepting and being patient. What also drove me insane that, even for a short period of time I had to deal with DPD was that I had specific set backs were I thought everything I build up with my recovery broke again, which then led me to being scared again that this is going to last forever, but as soon as this happened a couple of times and I watched some of this guys video. I knew that it was totally normal to have some setbacks that the recovery is not a linear line so you also have to keep this in mind that recovery means you’re gonna have set backs and if setbacks happen you shouldn’t be afraid of them or think everything is going downhill again. You should just know that setbacks mean that you are recovering.You will get through this. Love you guys and thank you to you DP Maunual 🥰

Shaun may God bless you! Can’t even express all the thankfulness I have for what you are giving us.

Thank you so much for your Videos man! U literally saved my sanity! I'm hopefull again 🎉

You just answered a whole 2 months overthinking Ive been in this spiral for almost 3 years Feeling more confident just from this video Thank you!💕

Thanks for the Input. I am just starting to inform myself about the issue because this is already causing so much stress and anxiety. Is that also a normal response? I have been avoiding it. But now, i get sick of that detached robot feeling. I am just so scared it won't work, or that it will last for another 10 years. And what you said is exactly what I am thinking - damaged my brain with drugs severely and now it cant change anymore. I am very insecure about it all :( However, glad to read so many encouraging messages.

I barely think of my DPDR sometimes yet I still have it and have been experiencing it for 2 years now.

I'm terrified I'll never recover. I feel so out of touch with reality and earlier I saw the tree in my garden look like it was moving, like there were bubbles of air around it. I'm trying to stay positive but I don't think I can get better, I feel my case is too far gone.

I greatly appreciate all the content you produce, helps me very much get a grip on the rational thoughts and continue towards a more normal day to day mindset.

Perfectly summed up 💯

the way you discribe it is so calm and relaxing! just what you need when you have dp/dr. thank you for doing this! video tip : a video that we can show to others on how it feels. i found it really hard zo explain it without thinking im gonna sound like im crazy

hi there everyone. i recently went to the eagles open practice and it was the worst derealization ive ever experienced. i am still having the thoughts i did that day. it’s hard to get out of bed, start the day, and talk to my family. the only place i really feel safe is my room. (where i’ve spent 4 days straight in), i haven’t seen my dog in days 😞. ive been obsessed with finding answers. and i came across your channel. and today… i had a slight bit of hope. i thought it was just me and not to talk to anyone about it. but i learned.. i am not alone and i have had derealization before while smoking weed with friends. but never this badly. i am trying to move forward and your videos are really helpful right now

This fella should have such a bigger following what an amazing channel

I have started watching your videos and i think it is helping ..even as i type this the negative side of my mind is saying there is no point .. i had it when i was a child especially before i went on holiday for some reason .. dont understand why i love going on holiday. It went away for years ..and came back when i was in my mid teens ..and lasted for a few years . I went to the doctor and felt like a proper idiot telling him i font feel real ..i was referred to a phycotherapist .i told him the same , and that i was scared i had sczophrenia ..he assured me i didnt as he was very familiar with the condition ...just having him tell me this helped massively . It went away for probably 10 years or more then it happened again when i was going on holiday to slovakia ..whilst on holiday there was a lot of stress my wife ended up in hospital ..looking like she might have a miscarriage.. ..i suddenly clicked back into DP/DR mode ..thankfully she did not misscarry and a few days after we returned home the feeling if DP/DR dissapeared . .. it returned when my father died for a month or so ..now im 48 and i have it again for around 5 months ...its not that clear why ? I have a lovely wife and two wonderful sons ... i do hate my job however and my Elderly mother is getting frail and scared she will go blind ..( she has advanced AMD ) .. Si i do associate this miserable condition with anxiety and stress. Funny thing is i neber remember how i "clicked" out of it in the past ..i just did . For me its the fear one day i will lose my mind ..and the fear of losing the love i have for my family . Its like im questioning everything thing i say and do .. over thinking everything .. Am i reqlly here ..over and over .. I found your video about alcohol very interesting .. i oftern feel a lot better after a few beers or a few glasses of wine ... its like a tightrope .. if i have say 6 pints plus i have awful DR/DP .... im on sertraline which seemed initially to take the edge off the panic ..now im not so sure .. i just wish there was an injection/tablet or something that instantly beings you back to rhe "real world" Many thanks for addressing this horrible conditiin .. i will continue to watch tour videos .

Hi Shaun, I recently purchased your manual. I’m not sure if I’m hitting any records here but I’ve been dealing with this for 22 years now and I’m really trying my hardest now to recover. I am trying my hardest to believe I can recover as it’s been so long I’m not sure what that even looks like anymore. My story I believe is pretty interesting and would love to have a chat if possible as I do have questions about my recovery and would hopefully like to share my story if I do?

Thank you, sir.

I did some sort of self-injury to me and then my mind just basically ,,died,, and im left with this ,,blessed,, silence for 2 years 24/7 which is destroying my life. Before this i suffered with anxiety and depression.

so helpful, thanks.

Hi, thanks for this, I’m bound to think it’s not going to go away - I have had severe derealisation for over 4 years and it hasn’t changed at all for even 1 second in all that time. I am trying to live my life as normally as I can but it’s so hard when everything looks distorted and flat with no depth to anything. I have no stress and I’m not feeling any unnecessary anxiety. I have followed all the advice in your manual but nothing has improved. But thanks for reassuring me that I won’t always be living in a dream, needed to hear this today.

Hey man. I just want to say that thank you for everything bro. Rn I feel like I slowly getting into recovery and everything. I need to work on ways to cope and not think about this. I’ve realized there’s a pattern in my worrying that’s causing this and it’s catastrophic thinking that’s getting me. And I just need ways to stop thinking about because I suffer from adhd and anxiety. And when this out of real crap happens that when I’m like 😶 and it’s hard to live life with this. Can you please help me with ways to stop worrying about these thoughts. I mean I would just constantly think that I’m actually going insane. Like I mean I will worry about everything possible and I’ve got to stop.

hey Shaun. Your videos are amazing. I know when trying to recover you shouldn’t be looking up/researching the condition but sometimes I cave. I have a question. have you worked with anyone with grief induced DP/DR? my mother recently passed away and when I tell you I feel like i’m on the brink of losing my mind because of this condition, i’m not joking. I hate this and I feel like it will never get better because my mothers death is permanent ya know? this really has been such an awful time and I know you can’t rush the grieving process but man this is so draining. I miss her so much. i really want to be okay.

I suffered with DP/DR back in the 90's, now recovered. Way before the internet. I wish I had your reference, information & manual back in the day. Your doing God's work. Big love, kindest regards, Richard U.K

i've had this high feeling since 7th grade, im now 23 and remembered i've stuffed down this disorder for years and never wanted to find out the truth of recovery. post malone recently was on joe rogan and mentioned he went through the same thing after a bad joint. now im determined to fixing this

Thank you so much foor this explications the dpdr is very hard but is juste a symptom of anxiety

It is good to know that you can always recover, even if you are a perfectionist.

I hope you know how much your videos are great! Your content always makes me relax .. Thank you so much for being here for us and wish you from the bottom of my heart all the happiness in this world 🤍

just felt like chiming in and say, as so many others have said in the comments, and just add on to the tons of confirmations and notes of recovery that people wright, and say that you Shaun, really are helping tons of people with this channel and your book. Im totally recovered from the condition, and its so weird to stumble across this topic again, and remembering the way i felt back when i was suffering, and how funny and crazy it is to compare how i feel now compared to back then. No matter how mind-bogglingly bad your symptoms feel, you will recover from this (:

Thank you 🙏

Its like im not even living anymore. Don’t know if it’s DP or DR but people close to me like friends and family feel unreal and like strangers. I can’t look my parents in the eyes without feeling terrified.

Do you have a video about how to get out of - or to accept- the endless negative, depressive FEELINGS that I am trapped in with this experience? These aren’t just thoughts. These are feelings, like “everything feels hopeless but I don’t know why” and “I can’t access joy, only negative feelings.” It's like I got some glimpse into the darkness of humanity and now I can't "unfeel" or "unsee" it. It's SO depressing. And while I know intellectually it's not true, it’s very hard for me to accept these feelings, and because they’re so frightening, THEY are what’s causing the anxiety response. I know that for a FACT. Externally, my life circumstances are amazing. I have very little to feel depressed about. It's so hard for me not the HATE this experience. Hate what it has taken from me (access to basic joy, meaning and connection), and having to wake up with this miserable thing every day. Thank you.

It’s not just anxiety. It’s complex trauma.

Hi there , My name is Mo and I will tell you my story and I hope you had the same experience as me , in order for you to feel less alone , and also for me :) , it’s gonna be long but I’m sure you will read it ! 20 jan, my first time smoking w ! The first time nothing happend really, even tho it was not plesent , I did it again smoking from the same nug I had , the first minute I was experiencing symptoms of high blood pressure ( dizziness, can’t walk straight…) then It went back to that plaisent feeling of being high , few hours later I had these feelings of anxiety (it was so unpleasant and thins I think it was due to before smoking , I was so anxious and paranoid and I was afraid that one of the guards smell the w and I don’t know what’s gonna happen next so I was so paranoid and I was always checking if they were coming ) then I start having this idea of omg I’m I going crazy, and I’m alone and I don’t have my family around … wish you expect made things worst , and then suddenly I start having halusination of the three guards walking they were not walking to me but it seems like a bunch of people walking at first I thaught omg this is fun 😂 silly me and the I had this idea of what if this is not normal and boom anxiety hits ! And then i don’t know I turned my head and had this vison of two eyes looking at me with a smile ! Because I was sitting in the dark trying to sleep ( I’ve always been afraid of demonds in my room at night since a kid ) and then I had this shock and I felt this boom in my heart like when someone scare you ! After this I slept ! The next day when I woke up guess who was there … no not the demon just dp/dr ! At the beginning it was sooo scary because I never heard of dp dr I didn’t know what is it and I think you know this feeling of fear I was thinking that I am going crazy and I missed something in my brain , and that’s it I’m dead somehow ! I spend the whole day searching ( i feel weird after smoking w ) and the swan appears at the bugging it was hard to believe that this is just anxiety and just to let you know ( the first time I understood what anxiety means it was after my bad trip) , I spent my whole days searching what is it and yeah you’ve already been here don’t y’a. After few days with this feeling I was praying that it will leave and everything go back to normal ! But anxiety and the fact that I always kept thinking about what happens and why did I halucinate it’s not normal ppl usually don’t halucinate on w ! But guess what it’s totally possible ! People smoking and having hallucinations ! And so at the beginning I was soo afraid of that I was thinking what if the w was leaced with something , but it’s not logic right I already smoked the same nug and I didn’t halucinate ! But at the time I couldn’t believe I was certain that something is wrong with me and with what I smoked . I spent days and weeks searching and having these existancial Thaught . And pfff it’s was so exhausting, and now I’m tired of typing , so just to let you know you are fine and don’t worry you are just experiencing anxiety, and for the rest of the story if swan want to make a video with me I will be more than happy to tell the whole story. Forme someone who was about the let his whole life down and studies and go back next to his fam to someone who feel much more better to you : you’ll be alright fam .

Hi Sir! I hope you are well and I would like to thank you for all of the content you push out for us. You truly are saving lives. I have a question for you, I’m dealing with shortness of breath which results in me needing to continuously take deep breaths. How can I go back to breathing normally? I’m as healthy as can be.. I just suffer from anxiety. Thanks!

Have you worked with anyone that has long term DPDR and is working through complex trauma? If so, have they recovered?

Will you make a video on dpdr and suicidality?

Please do a video on the intrusive thoughts their so scary

I took SSRI and benzo And i felt better

This really answers the exact lingering questions !!! My issue is though, that I seem to be so emotionally detached that even hearing this information I don’t feel a relief. I hear it, and I’m glad to, but I don’t make the emotional switch :(

Omg it’s so hard to recover from DP -DR

Hello! How can I buy your manual as a Russian citizen? I can't buy it on your website because Pay Pal isn't working in Russia

For me there is a sixth thing preventing me from recovering that you didn’t mention. The feeling/sensation of feeling disconnected itself. I feel like I can’t connect with my usual set of hobbies and interests, or even the sensation of being an autistic human being myself. That makes it really difficult to take my mind off of the condition. It’s incredibly difficult to find something to focus on that will take my mind off of DP/DR long enough to feel like I’m recovering. It feels as though my special interests have all faded for one reason or another, basically almost immediately, after this second round of depersonalization had set in. My interest in video games, animals and biology, science in general, being out in nature, birdwatching, researching random topics, art, watching anime, dungeons and dragons, the movies I like, and (this may sound cheesy and weird, but watching V-Tubers especially, since that was the new hobby that pulled me out the first time I had depersonalization, and since that’s faded too, it feels hopeless now)have all felt like they’ve faded away or are stuck behind a barrier, triggering even more distress and anxiety. It’s difficult to find something to distract myself with when it feels like all of my major special interests feel so faded and far away. There’s also the fact that my perceived cognitive decline makes it hard to do anything with some sort of intense thinking, and the fact that I feel so disconnected makes it hard to connect to the characters in a story/comic or even just the subject of a silly meme my friend sent. However, the other major concerns of mine can be folded into the reasons that you did provide, I felt like I couldn’t recover because my ADHD and autism brain make me quite neurotic and obsessive, and that it’s really hard to find a new distraction, either because everything has either been rejected as “boring” by my ADHD, or rejected for not being the same things that were on the pile of special interests I can’t reach. ADHD also makes it hard to ground myself because it’s so hard to focus.

I am very gratefull for this video of yours and you are really a great guy and your videos help a lot. But the only problem(question) that I still have is that if I really do not exist and if my whole life is just some dream, programm, playroom or dream I will never wake up from, how can I actually believe in something or thrust to someone if you are also not real, if this recovery also doesn't exist, if you all are just playing tricks on me and I am still trapped in the same unreality I will never get out from, and something or somebody just doesn't let me go out of it. I can also not be sure if all of the people have the same view when they are watching or seeing something and that they are also the persons inside of their head. Maybe I am the only one who sees the world like that, because I'm trapped in this body and I will never know if you all are real. How can I be recovered completely if I will never know what's the truth. How can I be a human again if I never was human, if I never was born at all. This is just some madness I am in, and if you somehow can help me to come out of this or explain my whole life to me, I would really be grateful. Thanks, you are the best.... God bless you!!❤

Hey, I'm commenting on this video as a way to seek help not to frighten anyone so pleade if you are currently suffering, don't read this comment. I don't want to freak you out, haha! So with my derealization, my biggest problem has always been the really bad existential thoughts. Something I've found that had always helped me overcome my fears from derealization is imagining a time back when I would be doing something fun and that I felt happy from such as drumming, performing, being with friends, etc. But lately due to my existential thoughts, I will begin to think in depth to why do I feel happy from these things, and whats the reason why i feel enjoyment, and most of all, will being aware of the scientific reason I enjoy these things prevent me from taking joy in them? I know from a normal person's perspective I sound insane but I just don't want to feel alone. That's why I came here wondering if anyone else who has recovered has experienced the same thing. Sorry if this didn't make sense. I can try and rephrase it if anyone has any questions! (Please ask i am very willing to respond!)

Shaun i got it on the first day of school(sep 8)after smoking a weed pen(cart)and had a panic attack(green out)and for like 2 weeks i was questioning why i still felt”high”until i found your channel and learning so much about it and accepting it an living my life.its been 2 weeks after now i haven’t been scared of it or care for it yeah i still think about sometimes but i don’t get scared or panic ever since.but the one thing i still have is i cant focus or concentrate on stuff.just wanted to tell you because your the professional am i goin through recovery rn?? Any more tips help

Is there any medication you can take to speed up the recovery processes? Mine started going on 5 months ago one day out of NO WHERE and I’ve been trying to find answers ever since. My therapist tells me because it’s all the trauma I have been through in my life that I have never dealt with and that is was going to come out eventually, that she’s surprised it took this long but I’m just so ready to feel like a human again. My time perspective is so off all the time. Constantly second guessing if life is real and how did I get here and how are other people just living normal lives. I’m deathly afraid to take any sort of anti depressants but I’m also getting so desperate to make this go away. I’m in the 24/7 stage where unless I am out being a drunk idiot with my friends I’m constantly thinking about it and second guessing the world. I’ve read so many comments about how you recover from this but it’s so hard to see it right now.

Do you know if anybody has ever had to go to a clinic to recover? I looked it up and there are a few clinics and I am really, really feeling stuck.

Any more recovery videos soon? :)

Since it started when I look out the window and I know that other people live, it creates a very strong anguish in me, as if before I was like in the matrix and suddenly I had awakened in this world. When I'm out and about I feel detached but many places trigger nothing for me. the problem is thoughts that seem radically changed and what previously seemed normal to me (reality) now seems absurd and frightening and distressing. is this derealization? I am very frightened by these new thoughts of my brain

SHAUN please help me i am calm and foeget about dpdr still it persists and it came out of nowhere i didnt get any stessful event i am totally disconnected i am always in my head but i dont have any axiety i feel that i am in a video game and i dont even believe in anything please i dont have money help me ⚠️⚠️

Hey! Im currently going through what im hoping is just DP. Im pretty much experiencing everything that has been listed almost (Feeling anxious that i wont wake up out of this, brain fog, weird/blurred vision, my thoughts are at a low volume then before, somedays i dont feel real, or i feel like im not "awake") Im just wondering, is it normal to also feel a sensation of numby/tingly or pressure on your eye sockets, your forehead, and in general the entire top half of my head. Is it normal to experience this if you have weed induced DP?

hello Mr. Connor i've been suffering from DPDR since May 3 2023 cause of bad drug experience and yesterday i saw your video and it really helped me but the only problem is everytime i'm eating i feel dizzy is it common?

what a pity that I don't speak English, I speak with Google translate I don't know what to do and I've been suffering from this problem for two years non-stop😢😢😢😢😢

Hi Shaun What if the existansional thought dont scare u? Could that be possible? But u still have those questions in ur head and feel disconnected. Trying to focus on other stuff. Instead of how does memory work, how do i talk, is this normal to think about, what is this place, hey i have a body, etc its all i think about and i feel empty i keep saying to my self yes all of this is real like the past. It just seems off i feel off. Like i lost my self like im inside saying to myself to do something. I also griefed to my former self. I keep looking at photos. But don't feel a connection. I say that was me.

Hey I’m from Türkiye and my English little bit bad sorry. I have it,this disorders and we don’t have to any think(Turkish people) I researched but I don’t find the any videos and any doctors because they don’t believe this disorders. But finally find you. You believe me I learn English for you. You don’t have to Turkish translation and I learn english😅 I feel lost my mind and very anxious but I listening you and I try to understand Please this disorder going to away because I can’t stand it😢

I actually have a remaining question! Is it possible to have this anxiety based condition, but not -feel- the anxiety all the time? I had a long period of extreme anxiety before it happened and after it happened I was just numb and often feel detached, disoriented but also relaxed and okay. Which kind of scared me actually. Yes, I became obsessed with finding myself again, like the rest but I wasn't anxious all the time. It happened to me because of braintraining, called neurofeedback, which tries to train the nervous system into relaxation (ironic) but I now understand it's not brain damage but DP

I feel like my mind is not mine or like i’m not connecting with it. Is normal to feel emty inside and out of control . This feeling is terrible 💔😩 . The more im trying to think the more my mind feel fuzzy . I can’t even feel my mind is like i have lost myself . Please answer

Does anyone have any advice on how to recover? Have had DPDR for 5 years after having a panic attack smoking too much weed. To be honest it nearly feels like my new normal now, I've worked, gone on 1 holiday recently (wasn't enjoyable due to DPDR) and have had some ok times, but it is driving me crazy now because I just want to feel like my old self again, 5 years feels a little too long. P.S. anyone who is suffering from it now and reads this, don't worry yours can be much shorter just don't do what I did and avoid medication and therapy for years because that's more than likely why it's been this long for me. Thanks anyone positive feedback would be GREATLY appreciated. Sam ~ Wexford

I’ve had dpdr on and off for 7 years I’ve experienced - disconnection, loss of sense of self, panic attacks, loss sense of surroundings, loss of awareness of time, emotional disconnection, and physical symptoms like : panic on standing, feeling like a puppet, feeling like I don’t exist, as well as ocd symptoms

I struggle so bad with dpdr, and I am seeing a therapist that works specifically with dpdr and she tells me that existential and philosophical thoughts are normal when experiencing dpdr. But I can’t stop thinking about these thoughts and I don’t know what to do. I also suffer from severe OCD.

It was most scary thing I ever went through.. but it will fade away trust me

Hello, thank you for everything you do. I have existential scary thoughts about what it means that i can be imagining i have multiple personalities and not being myself anymore.
