    Hi everyone! This is really hard, just being on this forum makes my heart pound. But I really want to help, I know how hard and just hellish going through dp is, so if I can give even one person in here a tiny bit of hope it's worth a bit of discomfort on my part. First of all, English isn't...

  8. Mental & Physical Health
    So it's been a short while since I posted here and I felt now more than ever it is something I should do. Just to share my story (selfish right?) and also to see if anyone else is out there that is having a similiar journey. So around a month and a half ago I reached my breaking point with...

    So for the past week EVERY NIGHT I wake up an hour or so after I fall asleep and I wake up confused and scared with thoughts rushing through my head pretty fast. I go into an anxiety mode where im so scared. It takes a while to wear off (usually wears off when i focus on something else like...
  10. The Daily Forum
    For a while I've been plagued with the thought that for some reason, spontaneously, the world I am observing and living in will slip away and I will either A) Fall into an abyss of pure nothingness and blackness and spend eternity in this isolated hell or B) I will just die and lose all...

  12. Discussion
    So lately I have been dealing with depersonalization and derealization. It all started about 4-5 weeks ago when a girl from my hall was in my dorm. I looked at her and thought to myself, "What makes her her? Why is she the way she is? Why is that her personality?" and as I was doing this, I took...
  13. The Daily Forum
    I've had dp/dr for over 3 years and have always handled it. But my anxiety has been acting up the past few months and everything that was going on, has just progressed. I have so much fear for myself and my mind. I'm so alone, the 2 people that I loved the most left in the same night. No one...

    I'm female myself, and I don't know how many girls there are in this forum. But I've noticed that during or before my period my DP/DR is notably worse.

    I made quite a few accomplishments recently. Ive been driving to work alone (MAJOR DEAL FOR ME) and I've been working and I've been going to the grocery store alone (ALSO MAJOR ACCOMPLISHMENT) and I didnt hardly have ANY symptoms at work today. I had been a severe agoraphobic. I refused to even...
