    Recently I went into a frenzy of cure-seeking research and found myself re-reading the wikipedia pages about depersonalization and dpdr. To my surprise i found them totally re-done with some information like rTMS removed (thank god) and some added. The added information in question was about...
  2. Introduce Yourself
    Hello. I have had intense symptoms for 15 years but only recently have heard of DP/DR. I am wondering if I have it. My symptoms are mostly physical though... I don't have anxiety or racing thoughts. I don't feel like I'm out of my body or behind a pane of glass. What it feels like is...

    Hello, I am writing these lines because I am "clearer" again today and I know from my times with very strong derealisation symptoms how often I researched on the internet and the partly very negative reports of experiences influenced me in an unhealthy way.

Is there anything lowers this neurotransmitter? p.s I decided to quit pristiq after being on it for...

  8. Introduce Yourself
    Hi! I'm 21. For two weeks, I was in the hospital because of bacteremia/sepsis. I had never been so seriously sick before and you know people die from this, often. Doctors and nurses were looking over me constantly and gave me lexapro and ativan for anxiety, but that didn't really help the fact...
  9. Introduce Yourself
    I've had feelings of depression and anxiety since I was a little kid in elementary school. I've always been able to live life and still function though since I could distract myself and just brush things off. The only thing that was crippling and unpleasant was my hypochondria, when I was a...

    Hi my name is Jordan, I am 21 and I have been suffering from chronic DP/DR for 8 years now. This is my first time posting on any sort of forum. It started when I took too much marijuana when I was 13 (very young I know) and was instantly overcome by a severe feeling of disconnect like I'd never...
  11. Managing DPD
    Hey DPSH DP is seriously devastating. I suffered from it 24/7 for over 4.5 years- January 2010 to around October 2014. I know how miserable it can make you feel. Like your mind is 10,000 km away. Like your body is an empty vessel. Just remember, misery loves company. You may gain strength from...

    Hi everyone, I have been suffering with persistent DPDr for about 2 months now since taking MDA once. sometimes I notice that I don't just feel strange, but I literally feel like a different person. I don't change my demeanor and other people can't notice, but I feel separated from my normal...

    I can appriciate people will disagree with drug taking after getting DP/DR and thats totally understandable as it is more than likley a step backwards when it comes to recovery and if this is you please refrain from hate commenting!

    Hey guys:) I've had constant DP for around 2 and a half months now, along with pretty bad anxiety. I understand that Depersonalization is caused from unprocessed trauma and anxiety, and I plan to work on that to get to a full recovery. I don't mind the DP much because I understand why it has...

  19. Recovery Stories
    Hello All, I apologize for a long post. but i know I always wanted all the details when reading other recovery stories so I thought I would do myself justice. I think most recovered DP/DRers would tell you that you need to find a system that works for you. A new way of thinking, OR breaking...
