My name is Brooke. I am 18 years old and I had panic attacks that started in September. Since Christmas I've been experiencing what I believe is Depersonalization and Derealization. I feel so weird I just don't know how to explain it. As bad as this sounds I feel like I'm dying. I don't feel connected to anything, these thoughts are so awful and it just makes me want to cry all the time. I started Zoloft 3 weeks ago and it has eliminated my panic attacks but I still have this. It also gets worse right before I start my period. I just need reassurance and help. I'm so low right now.
Your post is from almost a month ago, and I'm sorry someone didn't reach out to you sooner.
Don't be afraid. You can message me any time if you just want to vent about your feelings, or want to know if I've felt the same thing. I'm here to try and understand my disorder better, and I'd love to help you do the same.
