Dpdr won’t go away because of fear of dpdr

I believe at least that my dpdr started from ocd over my breathing ( which has gone away a long time ago ) but my dpdr has remained. Everyone says work on why you got dpdr in the first place and once that goes then dpdr will go... so why hasn’t mine gone? Is it because I fear and hate dpdr so much ? It’s the worst thing in the world.

I honestly believe that the only way to never suffer mental ill health of any kind ever again is to not fear it ever returning...

Unfortunately for most of us even if we do improve and get better there is always the fear that it will return again one day....This in itself is enough to keep the anxiety in place that DP and other conditions need to feed off....

No fear = No DP Its as simple as that....

Now how the hell do you stop yourself fearing this crap coming back again after going through the trauma of it already ??????

Or more so how do you stop the obsessive fear when you are in the throws of full blown DP ????

Those are 2 of the many million dollar questions when it comes to curing DP...

I also believe that knowing what caused it in the first place is useless knowledge as regards curing it....Its like the smoker who gets lung cancer and then quits smoking...They are still left with the lung cancer...We are all much better off focussing on how to fix it rather than what caused it in my opinion...
