After 8 1/2 years of having dp 24/7 and 2 years of coping much better. I feel like I have fallen back into the pits of hell with this disorder. I'm paralyzed with fear and can't seem to have a moment of relief. I could really use someone to talk to a friend that understands what this is like.

I understand completely I’ve been through the deepest pits of hell with this disorder it ruined my whole life. I’ve had it for 6 and half years and I don’t see it ever going away. It makes me wish I was never born. I’m terrified every second of every day the discomfort is unbearable. I’m 25 and feel like an infant that needs comfort all throughout the day this disorder is terrifying to say the least and is the lonliest experience anyone could ever stand. So I know exactly what u r going through

Sorry to hear that. I've experienced that paralysing fear too and have had dp on and off for nearly 20 years. What do you think has made it worse for you recently?

I really wish I knew exactly.

Is it typical for it to be bearable for years and then suddenly become unbearable?

I have so much anxiety that I have several days where I am in full panic mode

ask me anything you want to know

one of the main reasons why we have this shit is a lack of basic trust . we have to learn to let things just flow and go their way .

Yeah, even if there are no external changes that may be obvious, we still change as we get older. Unresolved stuff could be stirring up inside you and there could be growing anxiety about the future for example. Things that you may not even be conscious of day to day. There are so many factors that can affect dp, especially if you are a sensitive person.
