    Hi guys, new here. Hope you're all as well (as you can be with this DP/DR nightmare). I've only realised recently that what I've been going through (23F) for 5 years now is DP. When I was 18, I suddenly was unable to connect at all to my (now fiance) for 2-3 weeks. Of course, I searched online...

    Hi all, This is my first post - mainly just to say hi to the community. I'm in my early thirties and have had DP/DR as long as I can remember - since my early teens I'd guess, though my memory of that period is fairly poor. I suffer from the depersonalisation rather than derealisation part of...

    Hi all! I've just joined - I know it's a bit silly, but I'd never even thought of forums before. I've always sort of felt like I was on my own with my Depersonalisation journey. So, a bit about me. I'm in my final year of University, and I've been suffering from depersonalisation for about...

    Hi everyone, I've been suffering with severe DP/DR since May 2015 after a bad experience with weed (a bad experience that I now realise was an incredibly severe panic attack). I suddenly felt a feeling I'd never felt before; my arms didn't feel like my own, my mind felt entirely numb...

    I urge all of you who are suffering from DP to get you thyroid checked. I know you may think that "I got them checked" , just see the TSH level, it should not be above 2 for a normal 30 year old or less person. people who are above age of 40 get TSH level 2 or above. If you have your TSH above 4...

    Hello guys! I've been watching over these forums for a while now maybe almost a year but never really thought about making an account myself. I have had DP for the last year or so as a serious side affect that I had from smoking marijuana. I smoked twice, both times I had the worst experience...

    Yo, my name is Robin (but a lot of people call me by my middle name Kailand) and I'm very new to forums, so I've probably messed up somehow already haha. I'm still a teenager. Unlike a lot of people on here I don't have much experiance, and that's why I'm here, I guess. Everything's been...

    Hi I'm making this post because this morning I have realised something very important. I have just realised that I suffer immensely from Pure O and OCD. I have had OCD/Pure O since being a young child, having very distressing and uncharacteristic thoughts that I could never control, and on some...

    I am in my mid teens and have been living with DP for the last 8 months after 2 bad weed trips. Looking to talk to other young people, particularly those who are new to DP/DR and to offer advice and support.

    Hello everyone, I'm Laura and have had depersonalisation since September 2013. Halfway through my first year of university in February 2013 I started to suffer from heart palpitations. Tests all came back negative, but my mom suggested that it was anxiety. Fast forward to August of that year...

    I am currently working on a project that will aim to increase public awareness for DPDR and educate people on the condition who have no idea what it is. I'm reaching out to people to provide contributions of their personal experiences with DPDR. Either respond to this forum or message me...

    I want to get an insight into what DP/DR looks like! There isn't much photography on the subject and I'm curious in what you would capture if you were to photograph it! What does it look like from your point of view? Thank you.

    Hi there, new to this forum. I developed DP two years ago after smoking a good amount of weed/drinking. I am fully recovered now, and will probably get around to posting my recovery story and how I managed to get over it in 5-6 months, but I had a question. Has anyone here recovered and been...
  19. Introduce Yourself
    hello, I am a 15 year old girl and I was just wondering if anyone could help me identify whether or not what I have felt was DP. Around last summer I had a few drinks while I was out with friends (yes I know it was wrong but that's beside the point) and got drunk for the first time, after this...
