I HAVE MADE A 100% RECOVERY. I haven't even thought of derealisation for half a year now, even though I went through hell with it last year. Everything fell apart around me, I thought I had gone insane, entered another dimension, everything felt absolutely terrifying, dark, devoid of hope and I felt like I got stuck in a place that I couldn't exit evem through death. I had brutal intrusive thoughts all day every day about dying, freaking out about philosophocal questions of consciousness, reality and afterlife. I thought I was gone forever. But day after day, I actually spent more and more time with my normal self. By following Shaun's guide, not stopping my life and gritting my teeth even though I thought I am literally going mad actually helped me make a COMPLETE recovery. Stop researching, stop looking at forums, stop analysing your thoughts, stop trying to engage with and interact with your scary thoughts. They mean absolutely nothing, they are a symptom of anxiety. You do not have to address the content of them, ever. I have forgotten so much about derealisation, that I have only come back to this channel to leave this comment here to give hope to others. YOU WILL MAKE A COMPLETE COMEBACK AND YOU WILL BE A 100% YOURSELF. You might not believe it right now but believe someone who had it so bad they wanted to kill themselves and STILL MADE IT TO THE OTHER SIDE. It's beautiful on this side and I can't wait for you guys to arrive here as well! Life is beautiful, you are NEVER alone and nothing is as dark as it may seem now. Hold on, the darkness PASSES FOREVER. ❤

Everyone. You will get through this, I know its a very scary feeling and makes you feel like you will never get back to normal, but trust me you can overcome this. I was suffering from dpdr for a little over a year, and felt hopeless but I completely overcame it. (Don’t worry it can end sooner). I didn’t get it from a drug trip or anything, in fact I didn’t know what caused it so I thought there was no way out but there was:). The main thing that helped me was distracting myself, and interacting with others. I know other people may not seem real, but trust me the more you interact and get your mind off of dpdr the quicker you will recover. Depersonalization manual, I appreciate you, and want to thank you for helping me on my journey back to normal.

Secondly, I know DP can be frightening but remember that it's just your body and brain's natural response to stress and anxiety. It's not permanent and it can't hurt you. You can and will recover.

During my worst periods of DR, I would come to these videos and they provided me a great sense of comfort knowing that someone could describe what I'm feeling so perfectly. As my symptoms continue to fade to this day, I look back and understand what it felt like to be in the shoes of someone not believing it was going to get better, and to feel like I had changed something in my head. My advice to those facing their worst right now is to actively treat yourself to things like good food, exercise, and leisure activities. I also think you should make sure to celebrate the small victories as they are stepping stones to getting better and understanding your brain. You've been told this many times before, and may not fully understand it now, but you will get better, just take everything one day at a time.

Got DP after a panic attack in November 2020 (even though I had moments of it before that, now that I see it in retrospective), I remember in December I saw one of his videos that recovery is possible and I felt so happy... now I gave up drugs, started going to gym and started to socialize more than before and I can say my DP is almost gone, I forget it so much that sometimes I am like “what is this weird feeling” then I remember uh its DP and laugh🤣. On my opinion DP comes after a long time of having Fight or Flight response activated (too much stress for a long time) that a panic attack just activates the Freeze response. Basically you are either in calm mode or survival mode (Fight Flight Freeze) I consider it God telling you to change your lifestyle for better. Recovery is close, believe in yourself!

Here's something that has helped me. Just a little thing I repeated to myself during those hard times where I felt hopeless. Seeing is nothing new. Hearing and feeling is nothing new. My awareness of my consciousness and my awareness of other humans and life it's self is nothing new. You've been in it forever (literally). Nothing has changed except my reaction to the stimulus. Nothing has changed. Anxiety is a guest making you think about these things more closely. It can stay or go whenever it pleases. I'm done serving you. You're evicted, but you can take your time leaving. With no gas or electricity, you'll leave soon enough. Live life, it's short!!! Stay strong, people. You'll get there too.

I developed DP as an adolescent back in the 90's after experiencing a personal trauma. As the internet did not exist at that time, I could not seem to find answers to what I was experiencing with the limited resources that I had. As a result I felt like no one could understand what I was going through and even with years of therapy I failed to come across a professional who was able to give me a diagnosis of this disorder. I truly felt like I was the only person out there experiencing this surreal sense of living life through a fog and being disconnected from the person I used to be. Thank you so much for these videos.

I never comment on KZread but this video was one of the most helpful things I've ever seen in my life, since the worst nightmare I've had to go through is DPDR. Three years ago I was at the lowest point of an anxiety disorder, my brain clicked into survival and I had derealization for months. The worst thing is not being able to explain it to people because it is indescribably terrifying; an alien sensation beyond words, and no one understood. This video was my only ray of light and seeing people that were going through the same was absolutely wonderful. And since I didn't even know the existance of this symptom before, I don't know what I would've done if I hadn't found proper information about it. Props to this channel because it's one of the few examples of why the internet is really helpful. Lastly, to anyone who is going through DPDR I talk to you as if I talked to my past self: not only are you capable of getting through this but you WILL get through it, and you will be so strong that when you fight it, you will feel like you can fight anything.

I remember when I had the first episode, i was in mania, everywhere my eye went I had vision of future that something will be wrong and someone can die but in the end nothing happend

We all cannot just surround ourselves with people we like; we cannot just choose to associate with only supportive, healthy, good people. We have to take what comes in the world and deal with what people are out there and make the best of it or react to events in ways that cause more problems to us. I wish you a good life.

How long do you have it and how do you recovered?

It's been months or years already since my last DP episode. Try to understand what is stressing you out or process any life/childhood trauma you went through. I sometimes feel slightly DP but can totally handle it, I am like "ugh you again, whatever, you will fade in 5 min" and it's literally gone. Just cut off the loop. YOU CAN DO THIS!!!!

For those of you struggling on a daily basis with DP/DR, watch out for any behavior or anything that will increase your anxiety levels. I’ve started having DP episodes after a bad trip with acid and since then consuming weed has been a nightmare to me so I unconsciously switched to alcohol because it doesn’t cause me to have any DP/DR. I’ve been drinking everyday for the past 6 or 7 months, I was on the edge to become a hardcore drinker but I decided to stop it and go back to my previous lifestyle. This is where it gets tricky, my brain got used to dopamine rushes everyday for the past 3 years ( weed, psychedelics, alcohol and nicotine) and now that I quit, naturally my anxiety increased because my body is missing those feel good chemicals, and I’m becoming more sensitive to things like coffee. Today I’ve had some coffee with coconut oil and I had the worst DP/DR without being high ever. I felt like shit and unreal for probably about 2-3 hours. And I’ve realized I have to continue doing what I’m doing. In my opinion I’m having these episodes now because I’m totally changing my lifestyle and it seems like my old addicted self is dissolving and it feels just like being in another reality

I thought I was the only person in the world dealing with this, I finally find some peace

I was so terrified when I had all of these thoughts and things you've mentioned. I thought I was alone, I felt lost as if I was the only one feeling like this but after watching this video I am hoping I will have a different view on my situation and that I am not alone and I am looking forward to it and I can't wait to recover

I've had a rough time with dp/dr and anxiety and depression the last year, especially the last 2-3 months. but I'm slowly getting better, and your videos have been a great help to me. Back in September I started having extreme episodes of dp that would last for weeks at a time, and it felt like I was completely phasing in and out of reality, it was very scary. the only way to distract myself was to just stay in bed all day. While I'm not 100% recovered, I'm slowly getting there, I'm able to recognise my feelings, and the strange sensation of dp/dr and not worry too much about it, and as my stress and anxiety gets better, the dp/dr does too. I've started a new job, and I'm able to interact with the world again. I still have a long way to go until I'm 100% better, and at times I still become overwhelmed by feelings of dp/dr, everyday I am slowly getting better, and it is in part thanks to these videos. I know this is kind of a lengthy comment, but to anyone else experiencing dp/dr, it is only a temporary thing, and it will slowly get better over time as you start to tackle your stress and anxiety. I wish you all well!

A couple of years ago I had my first real run in with DPDR that lasted around a year. I had brief moments of it in my teen years but not long enough to properly suffer from it. That year was really difficult though, it really did feel like a major reality shift happened inside my brain and that I was never going to be okay again. Fast forward to now and I've been suffering from it again for the past couple months. Turns out you can't just treat your mind and body like trash and expect nothing to happen. At least now I KNOW first hand that I'll be okay someday even if it doesn't feel like it. Eat healthy Exercise Don't abuse alcohol Love yourself Relax And let time pass Those are key.

Hey Julie, thanks for your comment 😊 I know DP can be scary but just remember that it’s a natural reaction to stress and anxiety, and people experience it all the time. The National Institute on Mental Illness estimates that up to 75% of people experience at least one depersonalization / derealization episode in their lives. It's part of your brain's natural defence mechanism and usually it only lasts a few seconds or minutes at a time. It's only when it's focused on as a separate problem (feeling like you're going crazy / in a dream etc) that it can turn into a feedback loop with the anxiety that caused it in the first place. But no matter what caused it or how long you've had it, you can always switch it off completely by stopping that anxious feedback loop. Make sure to carefully read through all the articles and info on my website at www.dpmanual.com

It feels like I’m mostly always worried about this unless distracted at college or something else. I usually feel on edge and unreal. Just an hour ago, I started to feel quite low, thinking this would never end. I then started to go shopping and I felt like everything was unreal, I still kind of do. I’m quite tired of reaching out to people for reassurance, especially when I cannot even be convinced a lot of the time.

Hi I’m sure you don’t remember me, but I commented on your video maybe a month ago or more. I am now almost fully recovered !!! Guys I am telling you the only way to get rid of this is to stop thinking about it!!! It is so so so hard at the start but try and get outside, listen to music, talk to family or friends. You will find yourself not thinking about it for a few seconds, then minutes, then hours, then days. It’s ok if you have an off day too though! Don’t catch yourself trying to think about how your feeling, think about your symptoms. Try ignore it as best you can. Think of it like a bully-they won’t stop bullying you if you keep reacting to them, but they will get bored if you don’t react after a while, and will eventually leave you alone. This is the exact same thing! Accept you have it, try and ignore it, and it will go. Good luck to everyone, you can do this!!!

Dude that's fucking awesome. Tell me though I'm at the point where I'm not scared of it anymore but what did it feel like as you were recovering?

I just watched this whole video and I want to thank you! The last summer I had an extremely stressful experience and when I came back to school, I only added a lot to that stress! One day, out of nowhere a feeling of detachment and unrealness hit me like a truck and since then, I thought that I went insane because of too much studying and all the other dark thoughts from the video+more! Of course, I tried speaking with my mom, but to my surprise she just told me to man up and stop faking being sick... It's hard to confess It, but for the first time in my life, I wanted to end my life...I ruined my perfect grades in school, became more distant towards my friends and family (still am) and I thought it was gonna be this way forever, so there was no point of struggling more...just until I found this. The way you described everything so perfectly and calmly gave me the desire to get my life back, to live! I am going to work as hard as I can to do it, and seeing all the people in the comments encouraging each other helps a lot. I just have 2 questions: Can too much studying cause DP or make the treatment harder? Also, is it inevitable to meet a professional in order to overcome it? A response will mean everything!

@sebastianroccatani2161

7 ай бұрын

From someone currently in the process of recovering, studying is often something that helps me get distracted if it's not causing too much stress. I also found exercise and really pushing and 'letting your mind go' when doing it (even for a split second) is a great strategy for being present. Just so you know, I'm also a guy in their late teens going through this, and ik bro it fucking sucks. In terms of seeing a professional, in my case, it has helped as it was caused by some drug-induced trauma and has helped me cope with some of the stress. But honestly, time is the best medicine, so learn to be okay with the feeling and to not fight it, and especially to stop dwelling on things you know don't matter (like the extreme existential thoughts you're probably having). I hope you're doing better man considering this is 9 months later.

If depersonalisation goes away then explain to me why I’ve had it for 17 years and it hasn’t gone away once, I was forced to smoke laced marijuana when I was 14 by a bunch of 20 year olds and I blacked out and came in and out of consciousness for a whole day until I came too and my perception on reality from that point changed, I feel like what you’ve said “am I dead? Am I seeing things out of someone else’s body? Am I in a dream? Am I here right now?” Sometimes I have to pinch or slap myself to tell myself I AM HERE! Even though I don’t feel like I am. After it first happened I was spiralling into suicidal depression and was locked away to keep me from doing stupid things to myself and others. I seen a psych once a week and they couldn’t give me any answers, so I eventually learnt to live with it and after years of seeing doctors, psychs I stopped going because no medication would help and they didn’t give me clear answers on what happened, and no matter what good or bad has happened in my life it’s never left me, I still feel fake, not here, looking out of someone else’s body to this day just as strong as I did all those years ago it first happened. I’ve been this way for so long I know it’ll never go back to how I originally felt, and if somehow it did I’d be scared of actually feeling normal again because I’ve felt this way for so long I’ve just learnt to deal with it 😢

I have a Facebook group of healers and open-minded therapist focused on healing Trauma related conditions through somatic and compassionate rewriting of mental narratives, would you be open to doing an interview or presentation for us someday on zoom - where we could ask questions, and have a discussion with you?

Dont know if you'll ever read this, I found you channel about a year ago and you all bu t saved my life. I had multiple doctors visits, eyes tested etc and everyone kept saying you are healthy and fine which just drove me more mental because I 'knew' something was wrong because it was all so real. You explained everything to. A. Tee. And led me on my road to recovery. Thank you, so much.

@@hwelchuk thank you So much and yes be rest assured you are completely fine and just experiencing a very common symptom of DP. I remember not being able to comfortably go into a shopping centre because everything would almost have a weird blurr, the lighting etc would make it even worse. Please do reach out if you need anything at all, it's a terrifying experience. Yet there's such a simple explanation for it all.

@@livuair absolutely I did, its truly all the anxiety itself not actually the fear of something in particular. Thats how I managed to get mine under control anyways

Thank you SO MUCH ❤ I really needed to hear this like I need water You’re a saviour!😌

Thank you for spreading love and light. You have saved my life. You are brave, strong and most of all intelligent. If it wasn't for your help I'd probably be lost. Everything that you did and do experience.. feelings, thoughts, researching, questions, and sensations is exactly describing every little detail that I am going through. It is terrifying. I still have the dreaminess now.. but knowing there is a recovery gives me hope in the future. So thank you for being awareness to this disorder/s. At the moment I have isolated myself in my house for over a month and have panic attacks everyday. My thoughts have scared me. The internet scares me. The stories intenisfied My fear. I thought I was dead, in a coma, a matrix, stuck in a lucid dream, possessed, the only world who sees the world and no one exist, hallucinating my reality and you name it. Time scares me. Death scares me but it's all I think about . I questioned science and religion. I feel like I have completely lost my mind. I thought I was going to die at any second. I spent two weeks thinking my heart will stop. Everything scares me. Certain sounds and bright colours. I have become so angry and sad. My family noticed I've changed and I have lost interest in the things I love. This Disorder feels like it has changed my life. Like you, I am craving for my old self. ❤️ I appreciate your guidance and inspiration. Most of all again your help. 🙏💝

Just wanted to comment and say this is exactly me! I’ve been struggling for a year and a half and every single second of the day I experience this non-stop. Glad to know there’s someone else out there that feels the same regardless of how terrible this is :)
