Feeling SO much better

I have had DP for 1 year 6 month 3 weeks and 1 day and I feel SO much better. I contribute it to taking vitamin D3 and reading Overcoming Depersonalization Disorder by Fugen Neziroglu. It's interesting to me how every week I notice a part of my dp that has just gone away and how I am starting to feel like the old me again. I've gotten to a point in my recovery where I honestly feel that I could be ok if it never went completely away. I feel so well and have such meaningful experiences that I could live a full and happy life with dp at this level. I think that's pretty good progress.

I'm happy for you! I had a minute or two last night where it seemed like my dp was thinning out a little bit, and it was wonderful (and scary, since I've had it for over 8 years
. I'm reading Neziroglu's book, too; my therapist was kind enough to take a look at it, and express some healthy skepticism, since it's not really a set of tools that have been thoroughly tested and found to work, but the mindfulness-oriented activities seem helpful. Now, I just need to do them

Yay!
Overcoming DP is very very possible. I healed myself after about 3 painful years of DP. ValleyGirl, havent read that book... how do you compare it to (Feeling Unreal)? thats the only one I read. So this author had DP and cured himself? I was actually wanting to write a book about it myself!! I might do some kind of free, online-book with useful tips and thoughts i found helped me with overcoming my DP. anyone is free to contact me in the meanwhile see how i can help. good to see that other people have recovered as well
