If anyone chooses medication route it’s all trial an error. Some SSRI will work better for others. Some ppl even experience no side effects while starting them. Everyone is different. Bottom line is if you are able to find a medication that can alleviate some anxiety symptoms or depression symptoms...that’s a huge Start. It gives you room to work on other things. For some alleviating anxiety symptoms will alleviate dp while others maybe it’s depression that gets alleviated giving some room for anxiety and dp to be relieved. Medication definitley can work but it’s a matter of finding the right one at the right mg. Just because one combo works for one doesn’t mean it will work for the other. I would say there’s not a cure for dp but something that can be taken to help with anxiety which in turn helps dp. The cure would be reprogramming your brain to handle stress better and not be such a negative thinker always focusing on the bads.
