Hey guys I'm new here to dpselfhelp, I guess i'll just lay it out all on the table so i seem more transparent. First. My father became ill of cancer in January of 2018, after a long and hard fought battle he passed away in August of 2019. I was unbelievably close to my dad as he was my best...

Hey... Since over half a year I suffer from DP/DR, anxiety,panic... If this and my fear of developing schizophrenia wouldn't be enough, my mum told me yesterday that she has ovary cancer. I don't want anymore... I'm only 16 and I can't lose her! My DP/dR got stronger and I have constant fear and...

Hello! My name is Alex and I am 21 years old. I woud like to share my dpdr experience. I've recently been diagnosed with this condition called Derealization and Depersonalization and I am going through some really difficult times at the moment. I realized that I suffer from this for over 5 to...

Hello all, A little background on myself: 20 years old, great family life, no trauma, great life prior to DPDR. I am not going to get into how I got DPDR too much since it's the same for the majority of people, smoked some weed on a normal August night at home, made dinner, watched TV then...

Well I'm back again. The funny thing is I had totally forgotten I had even posted here before until I tried to create an account. My first occurrence with dr/dp happened in June 2016. My psychiatrist upped by dosage of Zoloft to 200mg and I have been fine ever since. Then last week, I just lost...

Okay since I have DP/DR (because of a panik attake) I became obsessed with my feelings and thoughts... I'm so scared that I (will) develope(d) schizophrenia (what if I'm in prodome phase??) or a psychosis?? I mean there's a chance that I "just" have anxiety + OCD (i have a history of anxiety and...

I am going to keep this post as short and factual as possible. First cause I haven't opened a DP forum in many years now, and I don't want to. Leaving all those online resources behind is what started my journey to recovery. I will not come back on this forum to reply to any question. I said...

Hey, guys. I'm a European guy in his 20s. I've been battling depersonalisation and severe anxiety and anhedonia for at least four years now. It's weird that I don't even know the first time I got DP. It just came unnoticed. Perhaps it's psychosis. I don't know. I'm currently on 30 mg...

Hello all, I thought I would start a thread on my experimentation with tDCS because I have seen very few posts about it on here. For those who don't know, tDCS is a non-invasive brain stimulation therapy that runs a direct current from a positive electrode (anode) to a negative electrode...

My Recovery Story First, let me say that the reason you'll see more bleak stories and comments than positive ones is that once you've recovered, you're back to living your life and you've moved past it, so generally speaking you don't feel like taking the time to revisit and write about your...

Hi Everyone, Sometimes I go through good periods where I am treated to a half normal existence and can do every day to day stuff and then there is times like now where I just want to sleep, literally just sleep and wake up when I am feeling better but most of the time I don't. How do you all...

Hi all, I have had DP/DR for 3 years but made big improvements. I started to adopt a healthy lifestyle and focused a lot on mindfulness. I saw big improvements over the months and years but almost two years ago, something happened. I got ill. It felt like a heavy flu and I just tried to give...

So basically a year ago, I had a bad and uncomfortable trip on my first weed brownie. About a week later one night I began having some existential thoughts about myself and my life, which I quickly dismissed and they went away. Then the next day I started feeling off and "out of it." I was...

Hey guys, I've (F25) made this account because I finally feel truly normal - there's no longer a risk of me browsing this forum and slipping back into the "simulation" DPDR mode. You CAN achieve this, too. It hasn't been easy. It's involved going about my day, surrounded by others, submitting...

Hello! I have read many posts on this forum over the years but have now just decided to create an account and make a post of my own, mostly because I feel extremely alone and am not sure what is going on with me anymore. Anyway, I have had DP/DR three times prior to now, once when I was 12...

Hey everyone. It's taken me a while, but I think iv'e finally found a somewhat simple (okay, not that simple) way to describe my DR. It basically feels like I'm the main character in a movie that I'm acting in, and that I memorized the script in my head to a t. But when it actually comes time...
