Can someone in dp/dr feel pain or not?

Postby Fanis » Fri Apr 28, 2017 7:35 pm

I recently have discovered this dp/dr and i think i have it cause almost all of the symptoms i've had them in my life. I can't exactly remember but i was experiencing anxiety, overthinking a lot all the time for all day long for years but never realized it and thought it was normal, and i never wanted to express myself to anyone, not even my parents so it got worse. Anyway, one day suddenly i was about to lose the grip from caring for others and feeling to not feeling and i let go. From now then i could not feel anything, not care about anybody, not my body, could put myself into training hard out in cold and didn't care and generally i could not feel pain when somebody told me something bad, i couldn't care about anything. I still don't but recently i've decided to try to care, to do things, to take care of my body and i do this with the hope to feel again. Anyway, i was wondering, can someone with a dp/dr not feel pain at all? Emotional pain mostly cause i could put fire on my hand but i'd still hurt and feel the pain.

Common symptom with DP is that you feel like nothing - blank canvas, a ghost, a black hole - call it what you want. Lack of emotions and connection to physical world is very common and is probably one of the main symptoms of DP. Continue doing your research on depersonalization and reading other people's experiences - it will give you an understanding that you are not alone in what you experience.
