Hello everybody! ;-)

Does anybody know how Harris Goldberg (director of the DP-inspired hollywood-movie "Numb") recover from depersonalization disorder?

I know he overcame his DP, but how did he do it? Did he take medication? Did he see a therapist?

Thanks for your help!

DPD is DPD. It does not matter if it was triggered by weed or by something else. Therefore you can't say that weed-triggered DP is cured differently than non-weed-triggered DP.

And btw, I don't believe it was simply time that cured Harris Goldberg's DPD.

I thought he never fully recovered but lived his life with low level chronic DPD. But I could very well be mistaken. I hope it is true that he fully recovered, could you share where he states that he "fully recovered from depersonalization disorder" that would be great to hear. Thanks

In a german book about depersonalization disorder by Matthias Michal, the author mentions Harris Goldberg's movie "Numb" and says that Goldberg overcame the illness. However, he does not mention a source for that statement.

But in the video-interview that "thanksforbeingalive" posted, Goldberg (if I remember it correctly) says that he is cured. But I might have to watch it again.

Why do you think Goldberg lives his life with low level chronic DP? Do you have any sources?

Does he mention what he did in this video? It's very long lol I seem to recall him saying clomipramine helped him and he recommended it to others? I am taking imipramine at the moment. It has been about 6 weeks I think now... slow progress, hard to tell if it is placebo, but I am eating and sleeping better at least. I will update my thread if there are any significant changes

Edit: it was Jeff Abugel that recommends Clomipramine I think he describes it in his book. Getting DP super stars mixed up lol
