News of Depersonalization Disorder Forum

I'm just looking for advice from anyone that has gone through the same. Throughout my life ive always dealt with anxiety as well as Dp and Dr. Just recently though I made a stupid mistake and tried those bath salts just one time. I had horrible panic attacks while I was coming down from the drug and I was sent into a horrible episode of anxiety. That was 6 months ago and I'm still struggling ...

hi all,

so in the past year-ish i've read a lot about this trying to figure out exactly what was going on. i experienced these symptoms for the first time last winter. they began right after new years last year and lasted about 3 1/2 months. they returned this year at the end of january / beginning of february and haven't stopped yet (there was one hiatus but i'll get to that in a bit). ...

I haven't depersonalised to this extent in a long time.

Last night after I crawled into bed, I was having heaps of flashbacks, crying, shaking, and felt like I was back there again (first felt like I was 5, then felt like I was about 16). I felt awful and the memories kept coming and I was curled up with the blankets over my head and just kept crying.

Then I depersonalised... felt like nothing ...

I had these feelings for years about a friend/girlfriend that I lost due to my own emotional insecurities of pride and fear. It's been over 10 years, but it still plagues me. I can never seem to let anything go. It makes me so cynical and pessimistic about the future. I don't want a future. Just more people to disappoint and disgust. I'd like to not exist anymore, but who knows? ...

Hey everyone! this is my first post here, I am a young filmmaker in New York and am currently working on a film about DPD and its visual and emotional manifestations. Ever since one night when I smoke opium, I have been effected by depersonalization. Although it's much more under control now, I still have the occasional episode (I'm sure we all know what that is like) and I trying the catharsis that is my ...

Hey Everyone,

Recently I stumbled onto the concept of Depersonalization after having another one of my so called "episodes" I've been experiencing for 7 years now. Here's the background and symptoms that I have experienced---

When I was 13, I fell into a "bad crowd" and ended up experimenting with hallucinogens (mushrooms), as well as started smoking pot fairly often. I had started working right in between the time I was 13 and 14. The ...

My name Is Jayden and I am a 21 year old male currently dealing with DP/DR.

I've had DP for over a year and a half now (it's constant 24/7), and I am not sure of the exact cause of why it happened. It could have been accumulated stress, I just finished my first year of college and it was pretty hard, I started working a job I didnt like, and I was a late ...

If anyone has read any of my previous posts, they know i suffer, severely, from depersonalization. every moment feels like a surreal dream, that i have no part of.
it feels like everybody in the world is REALLY only capable of walking and talking; they are NOT responsible for the changes in the world around us, or the events, or the changes or events in their own lives: they just don't know it.
it seems ...

For the last three weeks I have been experiencing something terrifying. I think it may be derealization. Reality feels fake, like it is an illusion or unreal. This unnerving sensation has cuased an unbelievable amount of anxiety, fear, and panic in my life. One week before this feeling started I had my first severe panic attack. Anyways, I don't feel disconnected from my self, thoughts, or emotions. I also do not feel robotic, though at ...

This is going to be pretty long so you can skip through some section like the text messages or to the part right after if you want. sorry

It's been getting worse but I'll hopefully have an appt with my regular doctor for an .. exam but I'll mention it to her and she will decide where to go from there. I'm somewhat clear headed right now.

I don't knwo where to start exactly, but ...
