ok as the title says this is the way i view my self, i have dp/dr but im not scared of it, its annoying and it makes my life crap.. ive had it for about 5 years and have only ever had about 3 bad dp 'trips' where i was actually scared and that was due to alchol. whats making my dp/dr hang on, im pretty sure its depression. anyone else like this?

Hola,
I have had DP for over 2 years, and I too am no longer afraid of it. I used to be horrified by it at first but now I've made "peace" with it and we have a truce in place. HOWEVER, mine case of dp just seems to hang around for no particular reason. Wether its due to continued bouts of stress or depression, I am not sure. But for me, for sure, alcohol makes things much more complicated with DP. Good luck, and I wish you well.

I'm frustrated by it and it bothers me a lot, but I'm not scared of it, even though I would describe it as a creepy feeling. The only thing I'm scared of is it staying with me forever or worsening.

It's possible that you are depressed, yet don't know it. That 'may' be my scenario, but I don't have DR/DP either. It just manifests itself in other ways.

You may also have got 'used' to having DR/DP, without the associated anxiety. It does happen, so I'm told. Janine will be able to explain, because I haven't got the foggiest. Sorry.
