drug-induced depersonalization

I know a lot of people have dp that was partly drug-induced. I was told today by a psychologist that most people dont recover from drug-induced dp. It made me want to kill myself. Can anyone offer any hope or info on recovery from dp that is specfically induced by substances?

That is the biggest pile of shite I've heard in a long while. Your psychologist needs shooting. In my experience, the prognosis for drug-induced DP'ers is better than those with chronic, long term DP. (Diclaimer - that is not to say that non-drug induced DP'ers cannot recover..)

If you are not 'prone' to DR/DP, that is without any serious underlying neurotic problem, I truely believe that once your brain chemistry has returned to somewhere near normal after taking drugs, you have an excellent chance of recovery.
