i've had this dp/dr crap forever it seems, i'm only happy when i've been drinking, i always think i have brain damage, i always think i'm schizo, i constantly think about what i've been like before i had this mess, i get depressed over how i used to be because i'm such a wreck right now and don't feel like i'm a normal person at all that can function, i feel like i have a lost ego, a lost personality, i constantly worry, i constantly think about how i'm feeling and it will never stop. i just want to be able to look at whats in front of me without wondering 'man, i feel like such a drain right now, how come i used to could feel this way and that way, whats wrong with me BLAH BLAH BLAH'. i can talk to no one about this, except some therapist, which i can't afford. whats the point of living life if everyday you're in constant worry and fear.
i don't know what to do anymore

·You say you cant afford therapists? your obviously not from the UK then where we have NHS, which should stand for (NO HELP WHATSOEVER)
This is definately the right place for you, pop into the chat room and you may find comfort in realising your not alone in this. Your not crazy.
*hugs*

read the recovery stories and reread them.print then off and have them at hand.they are not made up,they are real stories from real people who have had the same thing you have.if you struggle,keep looking for a way out.it will come if you allow yourself the freedom to find it,stay well clear of drugs,booze or harmful addictions
Stickdude,
Everything you've just said could have been from my own heart - well, apart from the drinking bit because I don't tolerate alcohol too well
I feel exactly the same. I do find that coming on here and reading other people's experiences is almost as good as getting professional help.
I've been suffering for 5 years now and it feels like it'll never end, but I always read posts on here and remind myself that there's a good chance of coming through it.
I really do think you should try and get an appointment with a doctor, even just one appointment, just for reassurance. When I was told by a psychiatrist that I wasn't schizo, it was like a huge weight was lifted.
