How incapacitating can DPRD be for you?

I am well used to pacing slowly through my DPRD symptoms to get basic practicalities achieved, though it is so trying. I am patient with myself, taking things slowly to interpret body and environment enough to find some path each day. However, often I have to stop for a day, when DP and DR preclude ability to move about and interact with 'reality'. There is just not enough awareness. I then have to lie down all day, which is boring but necessary. Then I get more done the following day. How frequently does DPRD stop you like this? I.e. it 'removes' you so much that you have to rest from trying to have a presence in the world and just allow a crash out day? Thanks.

when i read something like this i begin to question if i have really dpd. my symptoms can not stop me from anything. the anhedonia is kicking in frequently but i do force myself or try the fake it till make it style. but when it comes to the capacity for daily tasks it is just usual
