    Hello, Due to being alone for 2 weeks now, my solipsism thoughts and feelings are very bad right now. I was like 80-90% recovered, because I had a lot of work to do. I kinda felt "real" again and I slowly began to "believe" in consciousness of other people again. That was 3-4 weeks ago. I even...

    Hi. Sorry if this is too much of an information dump but I'm trying to figure out my brain and could use some help from others who understand. I'm 18 and have been struggling with mental illness since my childhood... Panic attacks, severe social and generalized anxiety, depression, PTSD, etc. I...
  3. Introduce Yourself
    Hey guys I'm new here to dpselfhelp, I guess i'll just lay it out all on the table so i seem more transparent. First. My father became ill of cancer in January of 2018, after a long and hard fought battle he passed away in August of 2019. I was unbelievably close to my dad as he was my best...
  4. Treatment Options
    I doubt anyone keeps up with me or my story. But regardless. Diagnosed in 12/2014. Crippled me for several months. Was on here every day. Solipsism, nihilism, feeling like I'm "In The Matrix", feeling like the "Truman Show"..... Cant remember the majority of my life, mainly my childhood. People...

    Hey everyone. This is my first post on the forum as I really wanted to try stay off. But I need some help before I can officially remove all traces of DPDR and solipsism from my life. First off I'd like to say: Yes I know solipsism is a philosophy and I know it's not a psychological condition...

    hi! it's been a while, hasn't it? the uh, reason for that was because i thought i was doing better- which i was, in a sense. I stopped having anxiety attacks and stuff (thought it's mostly because i had them so much i became emotionally repressed), and i was just, generally happier i guess...
  8. Recovery Stories
    Hi! So I am a 20 year old female, and I recently started having existential thoughts + DP/DR last month. I remember what triggered it, I was watching a video of WWYD (The TV show) and in it, they discussed the amount of people in America with alzheimers and how serious of an issue it is. I...

    Whelp. I've been suffering with this for about four-five months now. I never thought it would go on this long honestly. I have a doctors appointment on October 3rd to see if I can get a psychiatrist and hopefully get some sort of medication. Yay. Oof, so into the actual post For the entirety...

    Hey everyone. It's taken me a while, but I think iv'e finally found a somewhat simple (okay, not that simple) way to describe my DR. It basically feels like I'm the main character in a movie that I'm acting in, and that I memorized the script in my head to a t. But when it actually comes time...

    I know it's been a while, but i've just been going through some real shit recently. I wanted to talk about a new symptom/side effect?? that i've been getting with my solipsism-type derealization. (I have nothing else to call it right now). Basically what will happen is i'll be watching YouTube...

    I know it's been a while since iv'e posted, but... I just can't bring myself to even get on my computer anymore. Everywhere I go there's just coincidence after coincidence. Someone will say something and i'll subconsciously think something, and then another person in the room will say that exact...

    Hey guys, this is my first post and I'm not entirely sure how I start but I'll do my best to keep this as brief as I can. My name is Josh and I'm 26 years old. I've had anxiety my whole life basically but about a year ago I had the worst anxiety attack after a night of drinking. During that time...
  14. Introduce Yourself
    Hello everyone, Chris again. I posted earlier today because of the same problem I currently have, which is this terrible terrifying existential crisis I'm going through at the moment. I have never felt so terribly derealized and detatched from the world than I have before and I'm scared that...
  15. Introduce Yourself
    Hi guys. Im so happy that i created this forum in my imagination so i could heal myself from DpDr and get some help from people that i created in my imagination. Haha. I don't think that we should loose out sence of humor, even though the state that im in right now isn't exactly the happiest...
  16. Discussion
    Hey Everyone, I have dealt with solipsism thoughts before where I doubted if people were real or not and have overcome them but now they have come back different and stronger. I started to think what if everyone wasn't real and they were just ghosts of people from previous lives. I know this...
  17. Recovery Stories
    Hey! it's been a while since I've been on here, I'd say 5 months? So I'll start this off with my story. one night before school I was getting ready for bed, I just got super smash bros for my 3DS and I was having a blast playing it but then as I got ready to sleep, something happened. I felt...
  18. Introduce Yourself
    Hi everyone, I like to get straight to the point. I have no trauma history, a bit of emotional abuse as a child. I am very attached to my parents(especially father) and very dependent. (28 years old) since I was 4 I began having paranoid thoughts, questioned my parents about poisoning my food...

    Laterly I am seeing a Philosophist/therapeut (do not know the word for it in english) weekly. We do not talk about philosophy, but rather about what I want, what I need, and my relation to the world. Also we are backtracking my personal history. The problems that I have had and how I dealt...
  20. Discussion
    1. How could the only being in the universe ever be lonely? Loneliness is the alienation of the part from the whole. If I am the whole, then I would be incapable of loneliness and thus would have no need to create anything for the purpose of relieving it. 2. Even if I was an eternally lonely...
