·I am in no way suggesting that for some women dp or dr is a result of hormonal imbalance.
As Dreamer has mentioned just about any mental or physical health problem can be exacerbated by female hormonal activity.
Just to show that other women who are most likley not aware of depersonalistion express experiencing many of the same symptoms as we do.

>lately, i'll have a day where i feel very lightheaded adn weak all day..then the next day it seems to get worse...then the next day I might get a full feeling in my head all day and feel very anxious, where it feel like I'm right on the edge of having a panic attack.<
then the next day i feel like my head is separate from my body adn i'm kind of floating through the day...then the next day it's pressure in my head and weak again, feeling faint etc..this keeps going on and on...<
>feel exactly the same, to the point that I only go outside around the house or for a short walk. The head symptoms are debilitating. I also have this separating from the body experince quite often and I know it's scary.<
>Beside the days of crying, 24/7 dizziness/spaciness, my memory was fading fast. One day one of my students asked me my daughter's name and I almost had a panic attack. For about 5 minutes I could not remember my only daughter's name. I could remember the first letter of her name and even her nickname, Talk about PANIC! <
>It 's happening again. The obsessive thoughts. The "what if's"! The terrifying thoughts. I was at church tonight and though, "What if I just blurted something out in church?" And on the way home I thought, "What if I just opened teh car door and jumped out." I don't desire to do these things, it is what if I would loose control and did. It is a scary and terrifying thing for me. <
>I can't deal with this anxiety anymore! I feel hyper vigilant (sp?), sensitive (like my skin has been peeled off), shaky, feeling like I can't get enough air (air hunger?), jumpy and basically feeling like I'm going to lose my mind any second.<
>All this week, I have had horrible general anxiety. I am unable to get in any kind of social conversations with my co-workers (whom I like) or my stomach goes in a knot. The other day, I got stuck in a commuter's worst nightmare (a snowstorm). I was in my carpool and had a major panic attack.<
>Today, when I got up I just felt shaky and anxious. I got to work and got worse. I finally just had to turn around and go home. It's like I'm on speed.<
>I seem to have floaters in my eyes. Has anyone else gotten this????? I have had my eyes feel like they are darteing all over and very sensitive to lights and colors but lately i have been getting floaters in my eyes. I start to get scared and the panic happens. HELP!!!!!<

I feel like my head is going to pop off and I am a big pair of eyebals floating around. Do any of you get numbness anywhere? Around your mouth or you eyes?
