Is feeling more and more emotion a sign of recovery? I got so pissed at my boyfriend yesterday and it made me happy that I could actually get pissed off. Or even when I cry, crying for me feel like a release, it makes me feel real. Also my memory is getting better, the first few weeks are all...

Hi, I suffer mostly from Derealisation (DR) and visual symptoms. Need some encouragement. Does anyone have any experience recovering from DR and getting rid of visual symptoms you could share? Thanks so much Cheers Nathan from Sydney

Trigger warning, I guess? Maybe? If you're feeling really unreal/anxious, don't read this, it may make you feel worse (probably). Okay, now that I have given sufficient warning, I'd like to ask you guys about how you deal with doubt. I always say to myself when I'm feeling really panicky or...

Is DP/DR simply a symptom fueled by anxiety or is there always an underlying phycological root cause that has be repressed that needs to be faced in order to fully recover?

I am going to say something here that might shock people. Depersonalisation and derealisation doesn't exist. I know, right? Sound crazy? Well, give me a few minutes to explain. DP and DR is an obsession disorder. It is an obsession with the self. The vast majority of people think outwardly...

I just wanted to share an excerpt of a simple little down-to-earth book I am reading called "There is Nothing Wrong with You" by Cheri Huber. As I am starting to face my suppressed emotions, I am realising that my fear and negativity is connected to self-hate from all the invalidation I...

I know that in order to get better we have to let go and not think as much, but I love thinking. But thinking scares me. But I love it. What do I do?

How am I supposed to take baby steps (like, walk around the block and try not to freak out) when I have all these responsibilities like school and a job? I mean, yeah, it's not much, but it's overwhelming for me. I have trouble leaving my room to go to the bathroom, let alone go to school and...

Anyone else here freaked out by sleeping? It's like, I finally feel better and then I have to start all over again. Every single day. Also, sleeping itself is really weird, you know? Anyone feel the same? How do you motivate yourself every morning?

I just feel so alone, even in a large group of people. Especially with loved ones. How do you feel less alone? I feel like shit even when I'm not panicking because of this.

So, I see a lot of post that tell us to stay away from things like the new, depressing TV shows, horror movies, etc. I find this very difficult because I love things like that. I love watching the Walking Dead and the news, I like reading about serial killers. None of these things give me...

How long should I wait before I take a lorazepam to calm myself down because of a panic attack? Should I take it as soon as I feel anxious, or just when I feel like I can't stand it any longer? I don't wanna build up a resistance, but I also am incapable of calming down and staying calm a lot.

When I'm on the computer is about the only time I can relax. When I'm not on the computer I can't stop focusing on myself and how weird it is to see/move/exist, and I get scared. Anybody else feel this way? How do you stop relying on the computer so much?

I've never told this to anyone, so here goes. When I was 10, I banged my head on a radiator, in order to relieve some anger. Makes me sound so crazy, I know. Anyway it was just a little bump but when I stood up everything had changed. I instantly told mum wat had happened, describing my feelings...
