I always wonder myselve.. how do y'all see colors since you have DP/DR?
Vivid or more grey? or?

Looks more intense more fake more 2d plus static visuals

More intense, almost neon colours. It depends what the light conditions are like. Overcast days for me make contrasting colours quite unpleasant to look at. A bit like looking at the television or computer with the colour saturation turned up too high so that everything looks unreal and cartoonish. However on a nice sunny day in late afternoon, the colours can be more normal to me. For some reason, if I ever see red next to a green, the colours seem to jump out at me and they are quite harsh to look at. If I move my eyes quickly across a bright colour, I will sometimes see trails. This usually gets worse if I am really tired or hungover or am starting a new antidepressant. I'm yet to work out a definite way of improving it. Probably being rested and feeling content over a long period and avoiding anything that upsets the chemical balance in the brain.

Just realised I spell "colors" differently to you lot. I say "colours". It's a UK thing

Does anyone else get a sort of less sensitivity to light? Like even in bright rooms you get this visual haze that you would usually only get in pitch black?

I think for me it depends on the type of episode I am in. Sometimes when I am derealizing everything looks brighter and more vivid, but when I am depersonalizing the world looks more grey and monotone
