Since i had a break in school for 3 months at being alone in my house and having covid in january my dr/dp came back but more intense on March 21. Im watching my childhood home but it’s like i can’t see enough everything, can’t access to the whole reality, there is a distance and my memories feels distant from me but i can recall what i did or which road did a exactly take but it feels distant, not to someone else but distant. what happened yesterday feel like it was 2 days ago but still in a really distant way from me, the more you feel derealisation the more you have an discomfort feeling like you can’t feel totally relax, it’s like because the distance make you lack concentration so you can’t access to the relaxation, few years ago i had permanent derealisation but i think it vanished over the time, my symptom was still feeling a bit distant from my memories but it wasnt even noticable and so i felt maybe 95% into reality, what i hate the most is this distant feeling like you see what you did 5 minutes ago in an alterated way like it didnt happen but you still 100% know what happened but of course this distant feeling can occur short/immediate memory problems, i feel my emotions a bit numb, it can happen that i struggle learning things like learning a new game with friends but for school it never really was a big problem but i can’t really tell now because i didn’t went to school since february.
Also of course things you know seems a bit not familiary because you have like a glass on your brain
During DR/DP i always feel like i have my eyes above their initial place but in a philosophal way lol if that make sense, i feel like i have to put them right in the right place
I obsess over what can be the causes…
everything that happened before derealisation came back and stronger :
  • covid
  • i stopped birth pill on March 6
  • stopped school and so seeing peolple (i was outside like one hour a day just to do basic things like buying food and walk a bit
  • i didn’t saw friends since february and was a lot! on my phone
  • Stayed up very late while being tired the night before
  • took something with chamomile during 5 days (it has proprieties for detox fungus etc apparantly ‘-‘
  • was thinking about difficult things in my childhood the night before
  • But dispite all of this im was really happy these times

- Does anyone relate to this horrible distant feeling, i mean i know it’s certainly common but people more often talk about emotions, distorted vision so im scared

also sorry for the bad english lol im french.

I don’t have entirely the same symptoms as you, but i’ve heard of people experiencing them. I also obsess a lot on what can be the causes. I also quit the pill, and other things in my normal life to see if it could be the culprit. we are in this together! i hope it gets better for you soon.

Yes! My current symptoms are dizziness/lightheaded, feeling out of my body, confused like I don’t feel real sometimes and everything around me feels off. Also, I have a lot of anxiety with it all, because it feels so scary feeling this way. I’m hoping going off the pill may help some too! glad it has helped you!

what do you specifically mean by confused ?
it’s so easy to say but don’t worry remember it’s just derealisation and it will never last all your life ❤ never
