bah.. After 16 years severe 24/7 dp drugged with highdose clomipramin and clonazepam and no respond other than "less anxiety" I know for fucking sure there's cases where there's more than "anxiety" involved. People have been helped by Lamotrigine and Naltrexone and of course naloxone. What does that have to with Anxiety? It does of course help not to think about it, but recovery pff.
thank u so much.ima try this.and any of u sufferers out there can talk to me cuz we are all going through the same thing and we all need support so add me guys :)
@pr0wnageify Yes, all my therapists say but when you don't think about, do you not feel normal? and no, even though I am not thinking about, I know it is still there because there is never a time when I feel right, I am either spacey or just running on auto pilot :( I'm scared, my dad had this and was in a hospital to have ECT, which helped him, he said to me it was like a band had been lifted from his head and his whole perception returned, but I have had it for 4 years, and the NHS is rubbish!
Being part of a support group can help a bit. Well, it'll help with feeling like you're not the only one who has it, at least. There are some DP/DR groups on Facebook as well as dpselfhelp[dot]com.
I want to know how come people like us [me and the other ones that suffer from it] come to realize and start thinking about this? I was on a soccer field and sudddenly I started screaming from panic. They send me to a mental institution and they told me that I have this. DP. You are a wonderfull person, thank you for your help.
This can be the opposite. U can be doing something and OH MY GOD, what am I doing? Why? Where am I? Who am I? IT'S HERE, there's nothing U can do. I have fallen to the floor sreaming, but I am now where. Just gone!!! It's HORRIFIC! Please someone help me I can't go through another full attack of this again! : (
@shawnme08 Dont worry man just hang in there...im JUST like that...dont do anything stupid...it will fade i will take a while but it will go away...i feel the same way. just go hang with friends and smoke some ganja! helps me sometimes.
Try Pineal gland activation frequencies. Look it up on youtube the noise, to me it feels like a reset button and I snap bk in for some amount of time till my next episode which is frequent lately.
to me DP has its bad but it also has its positvives. we see reality as something really special, we want the best of it, we aprreciate alot more, it can be horrible but once we snap out of it reality is like a higher reality.. u feel as if u just popped an ecstasy pill. and i have experienced this natural high, that is how i learned i had dp! i am so glad i have learned it is a disorder and that im not the only one thinking like this.. good luck to All people with DP. hit me up lets talk=)
i cry and laugh at this , so mixed emotions :) , well its a true fact if you can forget about it four 5 sec THERE IS HOPE! i have it but im struggling hard to not surrender! even if sometimes its sick hard i know i have it my self
Maybe when this problem happens and you feel outside yourself you just need to take a break 5 mins,have something to eat or something to get back to your senses.Sometimes l get the feeling im not in my head or l dont know what im doing everything seems blurry and l cant think im not sure if this is depersonalization but maybe you just need a breather to get over it l dont know...
I have only had this for a short time. I don't believe it is fully anxiety related but i believe because it is so debilitating that people can't see above water and get themselves the help they need. This is a condition. It's not a disease that is incurable. The numbness is real. Look at this negatively and it's not going to do anything for you. Look at it positively and you might get something out of it. Don't feed the fear.
If this helps people, then absolutely great. I've had DPD for 30 years and I think O'connors observations barely scratch the surface. I use various grounding techniques all the time and while they do make you feel a bit better at times, it is way off to say you're cured. OTOH, a while back, and for the first time in 30 years I had a 2-second flash of what I would call a full recovery. On a scale from 1 to 10 (10 = normal), that experience felt like a 100. This is a complex disorder.
There is no way this guy has DR disorder. I get pissed off by finding stuff like this. I wish he could visit my reality in a bad day and see how long it took before he killed himself.
@unrealhorror Hello again. May I suggest you stop posting comments like this. Your comments are incredibly negative and unhelpful to those seeking help and relief from these feelings. As I said to you before, I suffered from derealization for 3 years without any let up. It was people who posted videos like this that gave me hope in times when I just wanted to give up. Conversely, negative comments would often have a very negative impact on me.
i don't think this person has DP. it is a lot more complicated than anxiety. anxiety may have gotten us here but it is not just about reducing stress to get us out... it is something the brain does as a response to anxiety, yes... but the anxiety is 'stuck' in our brains, we can't even access it... read "feeling unreal", it explains it really well about the amygdala and early trauma and why this occurs.
I bought the linden method and it did nothing for me. It might work for anxiety but DP and DR are two completely different animals. A lot of methods, such as the above, don't fully understand the dissociative disorders.
really. after 35 years of this, i can honestly say that am 'distracted' from my DP *most* of the time... i don't think about it. but i am not recovered, and i still have it constantly. i know it is constantly with me because when i do think about it and reflect back, i realize that the time that had proceeded realizing it i was always in the same deep fog i am always in.

@jtsc4l The best way to help is to suggest that people go to a psychiatrist if they have a problem. Stop spreading bullshit like this.

@unrealhorror May I ask, what qualifies you to say someone does or does not have a disorder? Are you a mental health practitioner?

i don't think this person has DP. it is a lot more complicated than anxiety. anxiety may have gotten us here but it is not just about reducing stress to get us out... it is something the brain does as a response to anxiety, yes... but the anxiety is 'stuck' in our brains, we can't even access it... read "feeling unreal", it explains it really well about the amygdala and early trauma and why this occurs.
