    Hi all, Firstly, having read a few of your stories I am so sorry for what you have been going though. It really is something that I wouldn’t wish upon my worst enemy. The variety of things that can trigger DP is fascinating. Sadly, many triggers are caused by the actions of others, most of whom...

    Hi everyone! For about 8-9 months, I don't feel normal like I used to. My emotions are physically numb. When I try to feel an emotion, I just feel physical numbness. I have strange thoughts in my mind. Why do I feel myself, who am I, why do I have a brain etc. It feels weird to feel myself...

  4. Introduce Yourself
    Hello everyone. I've had this disorder for quite some time now. I would say roughly 2-5 years? Not sure. And for the most part, I'm able to be at peace with my mind. I'm able to settle the physical numbness my body creates. I'm able to combat the thoughts that go through my head over the course...

    So first off I'm really glad I found this group! Second, I was recently diagnosed with depersonalization & anxiety & panic disorder. I have been feeling the effect of depersonalization for quite some time, and for one I don't like it! I was in a car accident a few months back and my Drs think...

    Hi guys I'm Alex 31 from the UK I started getting these symptoms which I think are DP/ DR about a week ago . It came on very suddenly I was asleep and woke up about 4.30am and as I did for a few seconds my brain felt locked/frozen like I couldn't think and when I did I was like oh who am I...
  8. Introduce Yourself
    I'm 16, and I was born with depersonalization. I had always wondered why I never felt like I was on the same plane as everyone else. And I've never been able to explain it that well, until recently. I was just an amazingly self-aware kid and I still am. And sadly because of this, I lack the...

    Hey everyone! I would like to start off by saying I've never sought help for DPDR! So PLEASE don't let my intro into this community worry, upset, or discourage you in anyway into your own journey to curing/living in peace with this disorder! I guess I'll start by explaining how I first awoke...

    Hi. I am not diagnosed with DP, but I have anxiety and it is sort of a secondary symptom. It really varies; when I was younger, I would have short, incredibly intense episodes which i called "third person mode". Since being on medication for depression and anxiety, I haven't really been dealing...
  11. Introduce Yourself
    Hello, I'm new to this site (unless I signed up a while ago but I haven't been a regular member.) I'll make my dpd history brief. I first felt depersonalization when I was 8. I had it chronically for a little while during that time. I went for a bunch of testing but couldn't get a diagnosis...

    I have a constant feeling like something isn't right. Dealing with this "disconnected" feeling nonstop for the past 2 almost 3 years has really beaten me down and I feel like I'm stuck. I'm really feeling depressed lately because I'm in a constant state of not feeling like I or anything around...

  13. Introduce Yourself
    Hello, so I don't really know where to begin with this. I have been a anonymous user of this site for many years. My dp/dr started about 5 years ago, growing up I had many short moments where I felt depersonalised when I looked in the mirror but quickly snapped back to reality and thought...

    Hi everyone, I'm Jake, and I've been dealing with this pretty awful affliction for about 9 months now. I decided to make an account and post on here finally as I need some insight into other people's experiences. I just want the reassurance of not feeling alone in my symptoms. Brief background...
  15. Introduce Yourself
    Hello everyone, I'm new to this community and just wanted to talk to people who I may be able to relate to in how I've been feeling...maybe make some friends to talk to during these times and share stories. I remember it like it was yesterday, about a year ago I woke up one day not feeling like...
  16. Introduce Yourself
    God, what else can I say? I've been struggling with this for a couple weeks now but it's total crap. I literally only want to play sports, draw, read, and write but no. This shit came to me. It doesn't help that I live in America and I'm constantly afraid of what's going to happen; hopefully...
  17. Introduce Yourself
    Hi! I'm hoping I can find help here, since doctors are pretty much all busy this time of year. Family doctor is on holidays until February so I got a new family doctor since it's an emergency but my first appointment with my new family doctor is in mid February. So, I went to the hospital and...

  20. Introduce Yourself
    Hi, my name is Katelin and I have suffered from DPDR for as long as I can remember. It is near impossible for me to make new memories and if I do, it feels like they aren't even my memories. My earliest, and only, childhood memories are the ones of my abuse. Memories between my childhood and...
