Can we?

[PositiveThinking!]

After all this time, I'm still not sure of what both of them are.. I mean, DR is when everything around you looks unreal right? And DP is when you don't feel real or feel like you're sort of a robot that does things without intention?
I always have both of them so I wouldn't really know.. but I guess things around me looking unreal freak me out a little more, so I'll pick DR as the worst.

I experience DR more than I experience DP. I think I have DP because of having DR. I sometimes feel like I am dragging my body around, or even that it feels absurd to have a body. I almost always experience DR to some degree, and on the bad DR days, it stinks. I feel like I am not really here, everything is two dimensional like I am watching tv through my eyes, and I feel like I am about to fade away. I do think DR sucks because I think out of DR, comes the worries about why we exist, and why we are here as a species. I will be curious to hear what others have to say!

I would have to say Yes, because when you feel semi-blind half the time and can't ''see'' things as clearly or as sharply as before, it plain out sucks! When you're walking around in a dream-like state and don't feel human, that also sucks! I'd have to agree with 2deepathinker and say that I believe my DR causes my DP. To be honest, I feel as if this ''veil'' or this ''fog'' that we all refer to as DR would lift, I would be THISSSSS MUCH closer to ''reality.''

Dr gives me more anxiety, and it's partly th reason for some of my dp

[FoXS]

yes.

DR is much worse,at least for me.

[EverDream]

DR is worse than DP for me too. I experinced both of them very strong. Even though DP makes you feel dead among other things, it's still easier functioning and communicating with it comparing to DR.

[S O L A R I S]

I think im one of the minorities in this poll.

I would say that DP is more challenging that DR. I do not really care about my external environment as much as I care about having deep emotions and connecting with myself and my experiences.

[ElectricRelaxation]

I feel like DP is worse because I got DR last summer and was actually able to cure myself with in two weeks by running every day and strict diet. DP can't really be cured like that.

I guess it depends which you have worst.

Since it's so subjective, I don't think you're gonna get a unanimous decision on this, and really, what's the use in making that observation anyway? Doesn't help you at all.
