Has anyone recovered from constant (24/7) DP or DR or know of anyone that has? And is the recovery process usually longer for people that have it constant?

Yes, many people have. And yes it will probably, though not necessarily, take longer - but it's still very possible.

Yes, me. I recovered from two year long bouts of chronic DR. And while it's possible that the prognosis for long term DR/DP isn't as rosey, just look at people like, for instance, Janine - who suffered from this crap for 20 years and recovered !! It is by no means a lost cause...not at all...the problem is figuring out what helps you, individually, get out of the mess. And that's the trick.

Good advice. Thanks

yes i have.

when it started to ease it was still 24/7 for quite a while but the intensity of it eased significantly over time until i started having periods of time when i wasn't 'tuned' in to it

Ive had chronic dp in the past and am well over the worst of it.It doesnt bother me much any more,except the business of my mind keeps me awake at nite sometimes.What triggers it back to the bad old days is if I go on a bender of drink.BAD IDEA for sufferers
