Is there anything we can do? If enough people took it seriously there would probably be some type of “cure.” But psychologists may know about it , but the textbook version. They never know the in depth , no one takes it seriously cause it seems so stupid from the outside looking in but on the inside it’s life ruining .. is there anything we can do to shed more light to this??

My therapist just danced around the topic of depersonalization and focused on the depression when the fact is I'm depressed from the depersonalization. They just don't take dp serious. All they have to do is watch a few YouTube videos to get a better understanding of it instead of just writting it off like it's no big deal because it really is. Not all but most therapist are a waste of money anyways they really don't have a clue besides textbook knowledge.

Therapists will avoid using labels and giving diagnosis because they are actually afraid of giving the wrong advice and being sued....Often doctors and shrinks will do the same thing....

How often have you heard a Therapist say "We can come back to that again in the future" Its an avoidance technique because they havent a clue what your talking about and also its a clever technique to keep you coming back...Guess what??? When you keep returning to a therapist they make more money!!!!

When I used to walk into a Therapy session I only wanted thing...To walk back about with less DP and anxiety and panic and fear.....It never happened....As a result I gave up on therapy because I couldnt put my life on hold for 2 or 3 years in the hope that therapy would rid me of this crap....

When it comes to this horrendous condition EVERYBODY wants it gone NOW.....I dont know anybody who actually wants to sit with chronic DP long term in the hope that therapy will cure it or that it will just go away on its own.....We have lives to live and the quicker this crap is fixed for us the better...
