You should look into our Recovery Stories tab on the site, flip through some journeys that other people have been going through and see what's helped them. You should also check out some blogs, as people really detail and outline their experience with Depersonalization. On another note, you might want to post in the forum a bit for help and suggestions, as the blog side of this site sometimes seems to get passed by.
Man, i've had dp for like 4 years almost, it gets a hell lot better. You have moments of realization and moments of derealization. Just gotta remember the cognitive distortions. You have to realize that our mind is like a tree. This tree gets zapped by lightening and the wood of the trunk distorts and cracks, but new branches can grow, or seeds can fall and create a new tree. its basically like you won't be stuck in one mentality forever man. I hope i helped. I've been having an especially rutty few weeks myself. But maybe i can help.
I know its kinda late but I feel like I'll comment anyways.
When I had it I was going through depression and really shitty relationships. I feel like I would have this better written but i really dont feel good now and basicly want to say what has helped me.
For my own experience my dp would come and go without warning and when it hit it hit hard.
Ever since I cut my two best friends at the time out of my life it helped, having them around me was really taking it's toll just because of how shitty they were. From then I've never let myself get close to anyone emotionally or physically. Since I became more detached from friends and family my stress levels have gone down and dp hasnt really effected me that much.
I know its not the answer you would want but I guess the solution would be to cut the stress out of your life if possible
