Hi there,

Many therapists just peg it as disassociate symptoms from anxiety: they couldn't be more shallow.

They don't understand thoroughly what we go through: no emotions, cloudy minded, and just an overall feeling of down and out.

Like you, I've exhausted Google and this forum with my many questions. I know it's derealization and depersonalization and they're harmless, but come with a great deal of mental exhaustion and just desiring to feel better.

I'm also going to look for a therapist or someone to vent to, if I can start feeling some better.
And like you, Idk or have had much luck finding one that knows derealization and depersonalization in extention of study. And I don't need any more medicine....just talk and therapy.

I'm sorry I don't have the answer to your question: where's a good therapist that knows about derealization and depersonalization in depth of....

But definitely can relate within your quest to find one.

You would think therapists would be educated more in derealization and depersonalization. I don't really understand why they aren't these days...or even early last century when it was more so talked about.

None of my therapists of the past really knew anything about it either: they would just call it disassociation, and brush it aside.

Maybe in the future, it will become more recognized.

Only thing that worked for mine was Klonopin, but it burned out on me. I had to get off the stuff...

That tells me, mine is because of anxiety since a tranquilizer reduced it to level 1.
