hello, I am a 15 year old girl and I was just wondering if anyone could help me identify whether or not what I have felt was DP.
Around last summer I had a few drinks while I was out with friends (yes I know it was wrong but that's beside the point) and got drunk for the first time, after this I remember feeling really out of it for two or three weeks and I couldn't quite place what the feeling was, I just thought it was my hangover lasting longer than it should have but during this time I felt like I couldn't control my body and that nothing was REAL. I was really unaware of my surroundings (for example if something happened I wouldn't notice for about 5 minutes) I was forgetful and began questioning whether things were actually happening like if someone said something to me I wouldn't know if r they had actually said it or not.
So after I snapped out of it I figured I was okay and that it was just a sleep problem or something and I carried on and the few times I drank afterward (and I mean few, it couldn't have been more than 4 times) I felt the same thing for weeks after. Eventually I couldn't cope with the feeling and linked it to the drinking and now that I dont do it anymore the feeling has gone away almost completely however there are still some moments where I find myself wondering if I'm real or sort of "is this really happening?"
Please don't be horrible about it, I'm doing this to find out if what I felt is normal, does everyone feel like this after they drink? I know people have it worse and I'm so grateful that I don't feel like this all the time but I wouldn't be asking if I didn't feel something was wrong
