Hi - I have had DP/DR for 7 years now, induced by a panic attack after smoking some really strong weed, like I think many people have had before. I never recognised myself as being a particularly anxious person but since that day I have had multiple panic attacks and had to learn to be myself...

Hi everyone, I hope non of you feels this way now, but I was hoping for an advice for my own struggles. Even though I've gotten better the past few years, it's still too hard, and in the last couple of days I've been more dangerously playing with the idea of killing myself in some way or...

Hello everybody - i struggle with strong depression and comorbid DP since 3 months now. A question which very often comes to my mind is: How is it possible to not be depressed with dp ? Like.. your emotions are numbed so for me that means you can't enjoy things as you can't feel joy so as a...

Hello everyone! ♥︎ I'm an 18 year old girl who first developed DPDR due to anxiety when I was fifteen years old. I've had ups and down, but as everyone knows, at He start it is excruciating to slowly feel as if you're slipping away from yourself and all things familiar. Most days it seems like...

I don't know about dp/dr but I'm just feeling really down today. How do people feel in terms of their mood? Does their dp/dr co-occur with other disorders? Can anyone give examples?

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...

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...

Is anyone else dreading Christmas? I have two small children but I feel so not here and not alive, that I know I am going to be so sad and down this year. Everything is brought me to my knees and I don't think I can get up again.... Sean

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 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...

It has been a while since I posted on this site since I tried to leave it behind but something interesting happened so I thought I would come back and share with everybody. So I have been trying to really change myself in hopes to kill off my DP/DR once and for all by doing things like...
