:twisted: i think i am depressed right now and i am wondering if after i am depressed the dr or dp will go away. if any one has ever been cured from having nothing feel real and also being depressed and than getting out of depression and having everything clear up please feel free to express your opinion or story here. thanks

Hi,

Yes I believe dp and depression are connected. I think depression, anxiety, and dp/dr are all related to low serotonin levels. Ive boosted my serotonin levels with the use of serotonin drugs which in turn took away all depression, anxiety, and dp/dr.

I think that both can not exist without the other. DP is Depression in some way, except when you feel depressed your mind is not alert and you don't care what is real and what is not.

so what your saying is that everyone that has depression has dp? can you tell me what the difference betweet dp and dr? do u think that if i become undepressed the dissillusionment will go away also?

do u think that if i become undepressed the dissillusionment will go away also?

No. But your outlook will become more positive and you will be able to manage the DPDR better.

No, life is not (does not seem) worth living if you no longer have any instinct for self-preservation for some reason. Despair is a secondary emotion.
