I’ve had this for three years now after taking mushrooms. I’ve gone through ups and downs. There have been times when I commit to my recovery and see significant improvement, but then I fall back into old habits and DR feels really strong. I’m looking to commit again but I’m discouraged by how many times I’ve failed. Still, seeing recovery stories makes me feel hopeful and determined. Thanks for all you do Shaun

Same thing for me and mine was also 2-3 years ago and I feel this. I wouldnt look at it as failing....its hard, have some more compassion for yourself. Its progress and sometimes its slow and sometimes you relapse....sometimes you just go through some shit again and your back to square one or even lower. Be proud of how strong you are bc you know you are. Its always hard to see clear when your depressed/anxious/dr/dp etc. but remember that little positive voice is the one you gotta follow....thats the one that loves you and wants you to make it through🩷 let go of being perfect, its ok to mess up....dont judge yourself so much.

I spent every second of everyday looking for some secret trick to make it go away, supplements, medication, breathing excercises, meditations, it’s goes on and on. I was obsessed with trying to feel normal and it took me forever to realize I was only feeding the dpdr and making it worse. The day that I said “fuck it, I don’t care anymore” is the day that I started healing. All I did was go back and start doing all the stuff I did before dpdr. Golf, disc golf, basketball games at the gym, video games, driving around in my car just for fun, spend hours looking for new music to get into. I know it sounds too easy but that’s truthfully all I did and it was just a matter of weeks until it was fully gone

The only concerns I still have are wondering/worrying about how long the recovery phase is and what it feels like. I do not like the idea of still feeling this way while recovering for months. I also find it difficult to stop worrying about worrying about DP. For example, when watching TV. There are periods where I don't think of DP and I am engaged, but then I remember DP. Most of my concentration is on trying not to think about DP, which of course doesn't really work. Pretty much, I worry about not focusing on the show and as such end up not focusing on the show. I would also appreciate it if you explained how to deal with symptoms now. It's difficult to forget about DP when you are experiencing the symptoms, at this point for me it's mainly the visual symptoms and inability to focus/concentrate. I hope you can answer these questions, Shaun.

Hi Hasnain, thanks for getting in touch and I'm sorry to hear you've been having a difficult time ❤️ I know DPDR 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 numb / 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 and my book The Depersonalization Manual. And if you would like to speak to a medical professional please don't hesitate to do so. I would recommend finding an anxiety specialist if possible as they will likely be more familiar with DPDR 👍

With fully respect, I think that acceptance can't recover you fully, why? Because your body enters a fight or flight response, (or freeze) and not your MIND. So acceptance is just a part of recovery, you have to relax your body while maintaining acceptance, it's not good to say to somebody to just distract themselves, because with that being said you are just telling them to go more deeper and deeper into their head. key to recovery -> follow dpmanual, tricks & rules , etc.. and do body relaxation, (deep breaths, PMR, wet noodle, diapgrahmatic breathing...).

@@jacobaragon3398 You feel traumatised because of anxiety at the moment and your mind is also catastrophising. Thoughts like "what if I go so crazy that I cannot come back from this" is extremely common. You are also freaking out because the feeling is very unfamiliar to you. Just roll with it, live life just like you used to and things will go back to normal, just like you've never had it. No PTSD or anything similar. And also, don't research it too much. Find a hobby if you don't already have one, something very engaging if possible, which will help you shift your thoughts from the anxiety itself. The more you think about it, the worse it will be. Don't constantly research it and read about it. Live your life. You will feel odd and possibly quite disconnected, but the less you focus and think about it, the better it will get. It will be very difficult in the beginning, but the good news is, it will very, very likely, only be easier as time goes by. The feeling will be less intense until it is finally completely gone. In fact, you will actually struggle to remember what it was like when you had anxiety and dissociation attacks.

Hey, thanks for your comment 😊 I know DPDR 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 and my book The Depersonalization Manual. And if you would like to speak to a medical professional please don't hesitate to do so. I would recommend finding an anxiety specialist if possible as they will likely be more familiar with DPDR 👍

@@ASMRJoleyI don’t know if it was trauma or just extreme stress for you but one thing you must not do is dwell on the condition as if it needs to be monitored or treated and identify what causes it to flare up besides the fact you have it.

I had exactly the same thoughts.. Why we are born? How am I exist? What happens when we die? What is dying? How the world exists? How is my consciousness exist? Looking at my family /mom thinking how we she and I talk and what is this relationship? How can we talk? Thinking we are animals. All kind of crazy/ scary thoughts. I remember couldn’t sleep for 2 days in a row and when I did fall asleep, first thing I did when woke up was those crazy/ scary thoughts would take me back to HELL the moment I opened my eyes. And how recover was long journey. I remember I was thinking about the days I wasn’t obsessed with those thoughts, when I was completely normal. I was keep reminding myself that when I was normal and not under control with this sick, crazy ,scary feelings, everything was perfectly normal and made sense in life.The reason life I feel is so different now is because my brain is not functioning properly. And I was right. Also, knowing that this condition is common among lots of people made me feel better about myself because I knew it I wasn’t alone. Later I leaned this condition has a name! How it works! How it starts and finally how to deal with it. After you lean about how this sickness works, you will never become as bad as you were before not knowing anything about it.

@@seanelisa8055 Ohhh You are so lucky I don't know how to deal with it pray for me everything looks like meaningless no one can understand if i talk about everyone says Are u crazy what are u saying nonsense talk they didn't feel me they don't know how i m living with these thoughts and feelings. I'm thinking why we exist how and then remember the time whenever i knows everything i don't know but this is the wrost thing in my life just pray for my recovery 😥😞

For those that have this I had it 24/7 from November 2019 to December 2021. It was so bad I didn’t wanna live anymore but now a days I look back on that time and kinda laugh. I spent so much time trying to figure out what was wrong with me and how to fix myself when that was the opposite of what I should have been doing.

Yes, so much of the recovery process feels counterintuitive at first. But thankfully you can always recover once you start doing the correct things to do so 😊
