Shaun, the information in your manual has helped me more than any therapy ever has. It’s been about 3 three weeks since I purchased the dp manual and you have helped me get my life back. I still experience anxiety here & there but the symptoms from dp are long gone due to the combination from reading your manual and making some crucial lifestyle changes.

If you are reading this know that you will be okay and that this is temporary! The more you calm the anxiety about the dp, the better you will be. Also, remember to not give those crazy thoughts any more energy, they aren’t true! You are here, on earth, with all the other billions of people, just as you always have been. I went through this and 100% got better. Be consistent and patient and you will get results with the manual. Having anxiety sucks but you are stronger than it, I promise!

Im fully recovered guyyys!!!!!! Im so happy. I know that everyone has it in them to fully recover . Does someone wants to share their situation with me?

Not gonna lie, i felt I'd never recover from it. But it's over 2 years now and i can't remember when last i had any symptoms

I'm not fully healed, but I've come a long way. I love you my friend. Your articles have been very helpful. I'll make a video when it's 100% good. REMEMBER THIS IS NOT A DISEASE! YOU ARE NOT SICK !

Inspired and encouraged! Thank you! I will recover!

Ethan has articulated his symptoms very well here. "Rubber band" makes great sense. Very interesting to hear the different ways to describe such bizzarre sensations. Thanks to you both.

Listening to this is so reassurin as I my way to a dentist appointment today my head started feeling fuzzy when I left the house. I felt like I was on a drug and felt my heart racing, the fear of my experience became so overwhelming I sat down in the wet street thinking I was having a heart attack. I have panic attacks so I eventually calmed down enough to continue my journey but it was difficult as I was having derealisation and a bit "hung over" from the panic attack adrenaline. I got to the dentist and the bright lights and people brought on another panic attack as I waited. I wanted so much to just run away but I knew the feeling would follow me anyway and I really needed the work on my tooth done. I got into the dentist chair and felt a bit calmer as "I was doing it, my anxiety didn't prevent it" the work on my tooth actually grounded me a bit but on the way home I was still checked out and exhausted by my panic. When I was on the bus it was so dark and I couldn't recognise where the bus was, everything looked and sounded distorted and I was really concerned I'm going crazy or have a medical issue. Hearing the commonalities in these stories is real solace for me right now. I'm determined to heal from this. I hope whoever reads this knows I'm rooting for you too.

Hey Shaun, It’s been a while since I watched these videos. But I am doing amazing, following all your steps. I just really took Time to focus on myself and reconnect to life. Im going to be 16 this year, and I am looking forward to a full recovery. 🙏🙏

This channel has actually put things into perspective for me and I am finally realising and getting help. I have had DPDR and bad OCD for about 15 years (from what I can recall). I am now in my 20s and conscious of my experiences, it's all about being conscious and actually realising you may have issues which can take a while. Unfortunately for me it started when I was 12 and I went through school with it and now into my 20s as you get older you become aware of things. I really appreciate this channel for raising the awareness and helping so many people. I dont know anyone who has had it as long as me but hopefully now I can get to a recovery stage and start being who I have always wanted to be. P.S I really do believe some social media platforms and pornography from an early age could create these issues and how it effects the brain and how we're put into programs. Joe dispenza has really helped me for anyone seeking more help. Thanks.

The DP manual has helped me a lot ! Not fully recovered! But I’m on the road to recovery ! Can’t wait to start living my life again !

Hi Shaun you create your new youtube vlogs channel the people are motivated to watch your videos.Lots of love for you ❤️.

I’m here to say that you will get through this! I experienced DP/DR for months on end not knowing how to function and having anxiety attacks everyday. I feared everything and it came on very quickly. You will eventually grow used to how to react towards it but, it takes time! My best advice would be to stop looking it up on google and how to fix it because you’ll ultimately focus on it more, find distractions like hobbies or something to do, and remind yourself that this is only temporary and that your in the present I tried meditation. Hope this helps :)

Its good to hear that this guy is better! I have the same story, extremely bad panic attack caused by weed, this happened this year july 8,and i have dr evere since, i dont feel any symptoms of dp, only dr,in the beggining i used to panic over it a lot because i didnt understand what was happening, but then luckily i found your youtube channel which iam so thank full about ❤️, and then i understand the whole thing and iam not that worried about it anymore, BUT.. 2 days ago i was sitting on a chair in my house and i looked outside the Window and i saw the tippical "unreality" of everything but i was lik:"meh its jut the dr" but then all the sudden i felt something that i havent felt before then, my house which i live in for 17 yrs now, it not just feelt unreal which was okay for me because i know that it was dr but it seemed completelly unfamilliar and it scared me because even tho i had dr for 3 months by then and i got used to the feeling,but i havent feelt this before, like i know that i was in my house sitting on a chair but it feelt completelly unfamilliar, like that typical feeling about my home was gone like i was in a completelly different place for the first time, and i looked outside my Window and my street and everything about it feelt completelly unfamilliar, and this is my only question towards you, is it dr, is it normal to look at familiar things and walk at for an example places in my city where i w been thousands of times in my life and not having that typical feeling about it, like feeling like beeing in a completelly different, unfamilliar place?

Hello! My derealization and depersonalization started 1 year ago after a bad trip and now I'm much better. During the first 4 months, it was very hard. Then I tried to get out of it. (meditation, breathing exercises, see my friends). And infact what really made me "cure" is acceptation. I accepted that if it had to, i could live with these symptoms for the rest of my life. Because in fact it's only symptoms. And even with dr/dp you can keep running, talking, laughing. I realized that I could stop paying attention to it because I wasn't in danger and I wasn't sick. I could go on with my life despite these symptoms. So take the time you need but accept and welcome these symptoms, it will take time but that's the key. Today I do not do derealization or depersonalization anymore except sometimes when I'm really tired but it's like everyone else and it doesn't scare me anymore!

Great to see these videos of recovery stories. I myself have fully recovered from DPDR with the help of you Shaun. And if you are looking for a guest to have on I’d be happy to share my experience. Thanks!

I am cured of this terrible illness thank God 🙏

Experienced it twice before now and now I'm struggling again, I also realised mine was triggered by smoking cannabis, I am also on medication due to other underlying mental health conditions, I've never had therapy and its hard to get in the UK, especially the right kind, I'd love to be able to purchase your book but have so many financial struggles, it's really effecting my daily life, I am a single mother and the intrusive thoughts are so bad, I've tried yoga, meditation all sorts I just feel like I'm not getting anywhere, these videos give me hope, mine flare up, go away then come back 6+ months later ..

Amen!! Great video

I’m 9 months in with this, it’s 24/7, I can’t wait until I fully recover, sometimes I have my good days then sometimes I have setbacks where it seems like i’m starting back from day 1. I haven’t even had a panic attack since july but I definitely do live a stressful life right now because of my financial situation. Hopefully one day I can buy your manual when I get money or maybe i’ll be able to recover without it. Will see. Love the video!

It's interesting, weed definitely gave me panic attacks when I used to smoke and I felt "off" the next day but I didn't think much of it so I just moved on. It wasn't until years later that I had a series of horrible panic attacks for 2 weeks that the "off" feeling came back but now it had new meaning to it, my brain was looking for "the threat" and apparently it thought my very existence was dangerous lol. I've had 2 episodes of extended dpdr, both brought on by extended periods of panic attacks and alcohol. I'm 8 months into this second round with it and I'm slowly starting to see improvements. Letting go and acceptance are so important with this, and it's something I've struggled with even before panic and dpdr, and I'm willing to bet a lot of us have had trouble with it before dpdr as well.

I love seeing this dpdr videos. Shedding a light on it makes me feel so much less alone. Another thing Iw anted to add was can you please make a video about a connection with dp and being sick? I recently got the flu and during being sick I have had the worst dp episode in my life. The episode has lasted around 3 days in a row and I feel so overwhelmed. Is it normal for dp to happen when you get sick?

I'm so happy for you bouth

I think people all have troubles that they can't help but fear it, no matter what the problem is be it dp/dr or love life, family prblems etc. For me dp/dr was horrifying but once time passes, with self-assuring again and again, I am very happy that I got to suffer from dp/dr. In the end, our minds keep on jumping from one fear to another (I am certain of this) and once you've truly understand what I'm saying it really is not that terrifying as what you've expect it to be. I hope that all of you got well as the time goes by. If you really think that you might not be able to recover. Look at people around you (especially old people) and know that all these people surely have gone through something that you've been experiencing or something similar. You'll realize that they had once survived and recovered, so you can absolutely do it too. When my dp/dr symptoms were severe, I can't understand anything what a person was saying and forget it too soon. I kept listening to my friend who is talking to me but I can't seem to understand anything what they are saying especially complicated stuff. But the I realize that I was focusing on trying to understand them too much instead of really listening to what they are saying and slowly I began to start understand them. One thing I remember from reading a Bible is this line ,"When you pray, pray as if you have already received what you are praying for". And it really is true it all depends on your mind. I hope all of you made a steady recovery and remember everybody is going through hardships not only you or me.

Hey Shaun, what if you might make a video about setbacks during recovery progress, let Is know more on what's happening setbacks, what's those strange sensations of anxiety return ecc what do you think?

That's amazing. I'm one of those who contacted Shaan when I got dpdr 7 months ago. And I really never thought that it's possible to overcome this. But I'm recovered. Life is normal again.

Hi Shaun can’t seem to get through to you need to purchase your materials but being rejected when purchase tried two methods.?

I thought I would be the only person to be scared by a horror or science fiction movie, I was watching a series and suddenly disordered thoughts came because of anxiety and I stopped watching, but then I kept thinking, I stopped watching why did I stay afraid of the anxiety and not because of the thoughts. I still have depersonalization but I can say that I am recovering slowly, I have noticed. I can recover and you reading this too. Let's go!

Do you still have relapses? Or have you been able to recover from dpdr ever since you started your recovery? I have been suffering from dpdr since July this year because of a bad weed interaction and lately over the past 2 months, it has been happening more often due to stress, anxiety, and social anxiety. Sometimes I feel as if I am not going to recover and go back to my normal self which is very discouraging because I have stopped doing the things I love. I have just brought your DP manual to help with my recovery. I am also going through emdr therapy hopefully I recover

I acquired dp when I was 14 after eating two edibles it’s been 10 years and I still experience symptoms if anyone has any advice that would be great because symptoms are getting overwhelming everyday

Hey currently I think I'm experiencing dp and dr. I ate my first edible with some friends on Tuesday and suddenly during school the edible started hitting and i had a panic attack and kept telling my friends to touch my chest because I thought I was going to have a stroke because my heart was beating so fast but then the symptoms past. When I got home I surprisingly didn't really have the Dp and Dr symptoms. I had those symptoms when the edible took action. The next day I thought I was good because my friends were good because they both also took edibles before and they were fine, but Wednesday the next day during school i suddenly started going dizzy and a headache I also had a mini panic attack but then it went away when I got home. Thursday the same story but less worse than Wednesday. Thursday I was fine when I got home but I went outside and i found out when i was in a crowd I just suddenly got dizzy and i started thinking that "oh no I'm feeling this again". But when i relaxed home it kinda went away. Today this morning i kinda kept thinking about it and dp started taking action. Wednesday I searched up "why do I feel like I'm in a dream after a edible" and i clicked on the first link and it was your dp manual tips. I have been experiencing all those symptoms your videos give me hope and keep me calm. I want to recover completely 🙏 it's been about almost 4 days since the edible and trying to recover.

Living witness its gets better i beat it, thank u god🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

It legit feels like I’m psychotic, but the doctor told me that I don’t have psychosis. But sometimes I can’t differentiate between my dreams and reality, I get afterimages sometimes and I have a ringing in my ears. The tinnitus gets bad to the point where I can’t differentiate between the ringing and the crickets outside, The sound of birds chirping also annoys me, my memory is weak too. Is this part of the DPDR?

I'm happy when I watch your Vidians, but read some comments, some people have been with them for 10 years.

Hey Shaun im going through it right now again after 1 year of not having it. Now i habe existencial thoughts like why iam living and searching constantly for answers for the universe and so on. Did you also had them or can relate?

I have awful dpdr and feel alone, I don’t feel attached to my family anymore. Whenever I look at my hands I feel like something is off. I can’t remember what it feels like to be normal and I feel like I never will. what are the best ways to recover?

Is it also normal to feel confused and dizzy at Derealization? And Shawn did you also experienced that it was worse at night? It’s like during 16:00-19:00 it started to get worse and I get also confused and extreme brain forg...pleas reply

Hey sir I hope you see this. Your videos have helped me a lot through this and it's been 6 days since I got this and I'm recovering day by day but I just have trouble sleeping. Is there any tips on how to sleep with this.

hiya shaun i was just wondering, is muscle twitching everyday a synptom of dpdr? its been kind of bugging me for the longest time :(

I’m going threw it rn it’s terrible I feel like it’s never going to go away sometimes it’s get hard and then my anxiety goes crazy. I was going to go to target about 3 days ago and then it hit me I got sooooo scared my heart started going crazy my palms started sweating I had so much fear inside of me that something was about to happen I felt like everything around me was unreal horrible. I feel like I can’t handle it so much stress always thinking when is it going to go away I always have it my head like I forget about it then it comes back.

for me the last week has been a repetitive cycle of the same thing, i literally live in normality for 2-3 days, close to 0 thoughts about dpdr then when i realise that i wasn't thinking about it i feel AMAZING, such a relieving feeling. However i then start obsessing over it thinking it cant touch me then i just get the most intense day of it then repeat. Anything i can do to stop this vicious cycle ??

Hey Shaun, I was recovering but then I changed houses and the recovery has stopped and dp has worsened. Please tell me what should I do??

Sir I am suffering from VSS for last 3 months and just 3 days ago I saw a post about DP/DR and suddenly I realized that after seeing the post I feel DP/DR. Sir can I recover completely from this DP/DR?

hey shaun. thanks for ur time and all the informations.thank got that i faund ur chanel by accident and it helped me aloot. i would love to schare mz experience with poeple .just let me know if you need a volunteer. god bless

I wish I also could recover and share my story… it’s been more than 10 years

Hi Shaun, I’m experiencing DPDR at the moment and just wanted to ask if a change in how voices and general noises sound is part of the condition, quiet sounds are louder and louder sounds seem muted or reduced. Any help would be greatly appreciated as worrying about there being something wrong with my hearing is fuelling the anxiety. Thankyou

who else is experiencing this? that when you don't pay attention that it really feels forced and wrong. that makes you think about it. this is hopeless how can i recover from this if this is happening to me continuously. when i don't think about it my mind feels empty which makes me think. “why can't I think of anything” and so it goes on and on. any tips please????

Hi, i keep having horrifying thoughts that revolve around death and they are scaring me and I feel as though I won’t recover from this as it’s something that does happen, I’ve been suffering with dp for over a year but it’s existential thoughts like this that are keeping me from recovering, is this normal?

I just bought the DP manual，but i didn't find the Chinese file，please help me thanks a lot

I got both dpdr and hppd at the same time. I had dpdr long ago, and it went away after a couple days, just less than a week. After this I dabbled with drugs, i even smorkd more took acid shrooms and stuff, then quit at age 18. I smoked a couple days ago after a year without smoking, and I got to a level of high I didn’t know existed. but this time my dpdr and this hppd are both super mild. Are dpdr and hppd intertwined? Or did I just get both because i just so happened to get both dpdr and hppd at the same time? The hppd I dont mind but the dpdr sure its not NEARLY AS BAD as what I had in the past but I still need it gone

Also can the constant anxiety caused by derealization led or increase the risk of schizophrenia? Because i heard that stress can increase the risk of developing schizophrenia

Does anyone else have dp/dr 24/7 ? Ive had it for the past three years with absolutely zero breaks from it. Praying that a day comes where it leaves.

I keep convincing myself that i am hearing voices and that i have psychosis or schizophrenia please tell me how to stop i was so close from recovering

Hey, I got it since 3 months now, very dark place feels like everything is emotioneless and People also see i changed and that puts me more in this situation because i just want to be how i was and dont think when im meeting with my friends that i have to act „normal“. 4 years ago i had it for 1 year it was so horrible but i got out of it now im thinking ok you got out of it now you will too but its like youre life is gone, like someone stole youre complete motivation and confidence youre not feeling anything. Also want to ask for those who experienced it, is it normal that you think you have no thoughts or that youre talking with yourself in your thoughts and that are now youre thoughts. I dont know how to explain it but my thoughts are just different. Also i cant speak free, like i have to say it first in my thoughts and i cant be part of a conversion because i dont know what to say and its like i hear the things the people say but it dont goes in my brain. Also i hear ecerything 10000 times louder, like the voice of my brother in the living room is so loud to me in my room, sometimes i hear also my neighbours voices and im focused so extreme on that that stresses me so much which will not help me get out of this condition. Someone experienced these symptoma i tryed to explain? If so please let me know so i know its only DPDR and not something other mental shit. How i said i had it 4 years ago but back than i was shy and didnt talk much as person so i once googles it, there stands its normal i have to accept it and i didnt think about it, but now i was so a confident person loved to talk with people and all that is gone :/ And how i said i got it once for 1 year and noe 3 years later its back whyyyy :/ I tried to accept it but when i talk to friends its allways like i dont know what to say that puts me back in. scariest symptoms for me are 1. I cant talk anymore 2. Feeling literally no emotions 3. No thoughts 4. Thinking how the fuck i am able to recover when everyone i talk to i think myself He knows im different and i have to act normal but then i just act like a robot emotionaless and dont know what to say. Iss that alll normalll??? please someone answer so i know i have no other mental character disorder or something like this

i’ve had depersonalisation for five years and learnt how to cope with it, i don’t know what caused it and i went to therapy for a bit which didn’t do much as no one understands how i feel, but as of two days ago i feel worse and more detatched than ever what do i do?

I think this is what i have after a massive set of panic attacks from smoking cannabis from age 14-27. One day while smoking i just had a rude awakening. I went to the ER room about 5 times and everytime they said I had heightened and severe levels of anxiety. I started to believe I was developing schizoprenia because I started to hear my inner monologue again and have daily hypnagogic hallucinations while trying to sleep and when insomnia isn't beating me up I have very vivid and scary dreams when actually getting sleep. Doctors also blamed this on cortisol levels and severe anxiety. The best way i can put it is i feel mentally out of sync and like i'm having a break from reality, but i'm aware of it. Would you classify this as dpdr? If so i'm highly recommending the manual.

Did anyone experience the sensation of eating but feel like the food was not going inside the body ? I was eating yesterday but didn't feel I was felt nothing? (Man) it's sucks

guys can someone give me an advice. i don't care about other symptoms much. but i feel really depressed i feel deep sadness as if a weight is on my chest the feeling is horrible do anybody else gets this !!

Aproximately How long time does it take to completely recover from derealization after you can cope with it and not get scared of it anymore?

hello sir please response to my comments its nice to see your video i had dpdr for 2 year i am a medical student i missed one year of my studies due to dpdr but now i want to start studying again but when i set for stdy its hard for me to memorize things and i feel that my brain is going to ruine and i am going crazy please sir tell me what to do?

Hey! I have different symptoms. But there is one that worries me. When I shine a flashlight on my eye, I see cracks. What's this?

Do you actually fully recover or do you just forget about it being there??

I dont feel any anxiety most of the time, only in specific situations but i have severe DPDR and it does not get better, what should i do? Im currently reading ur course btw. You said that there is no DPDR without anxiety.. but i dont have anxiety most of the time

I’m still goin thru it and it’s makin me jus not want to be here honestly like I don’t rllly know myself my faimly feel like strangers when I’m out I feel so like someone else is controlling me and everything and everyone looks unreal and now I’ve also got to go back to school and I feel like it’s gunno make me so worse I just wanna feel like myself

I developed DPDR after suffering a panic attack about 3 months ago. I definitely feel like it’s starting to fade away, I still have some times where I get a little into my thoughts and have intrusive/existential thoughts but they’re definitely a lot more manageable now and I am capable of hearing my own regular everyday thoughts again. However, now I just feel extremely depressed and experience more everyday anxiety about little things. Is this normal and a part of the recovery process? It doesn’t feel like it’s DPDR anymore it just feels like heavy depression

I’ve been following the steps and I haven’t seen much recovery… maybe I’ve been forcing it and trying too hard? I don’t know but I’m so frustrated. At this point I’m beginning to think I don’t have dpdr but instead some other condition and that’s why I can’t recover. I need help😞

Hey Shaun, I had 2 things that come back the whole time. The thought and feeling; nobody knows what you exactly think or see, and I am afraid of that. That as an individual, you stand so alone, and you lived behind your eyes haha. It is so strange. Do you recognize the feeling? And the feeling I have, that the world and the people around me are my imagination. So they are not real, and I am dreaming. Is this normal? P.S. sometimes when I read your reaction, it likes it is a robot copy paste reaction. Are you Shaun? Who read and answer the comments? I know by other chanels that random co workers replys ... Thanks for everything you do. With love, Mary

My visuals are terrible when I come home from the street. But when I stay at home, they get better. why is that? Maybe because of the cold? What do you think about this Sean?

please help me. I am recovering from dpdr, I am no longer afraid of the feeling but I am focused. whenever I'm not thinking about it I tend to think about it again as my mind seems like 1 black hole. if i don't think about dpdr it's just 1 black void. this automatically reminds me of the dpdr.

Does your memory go back to normal after you recovered ?

how do i stop thinking that i have schizophrenia or psychosis or just going crazy

I am so self conscious person. It looks better somedays. After i start going to a job, the dp feels again. cant able to concentrate on different things suddenly. Reply me shaun💔

I have had DP and DR for 26 years All this time I "live normally", I gave birth to children, I work, I became a grandmother... But this is life without living, because everything is like a dream, and I am not me. I need half the energy to function PLEASE HELP ME MAKE THEM GO AWAY FOR AT LEAST 5 MINUTES AND REMEMBER WHAT IT'S LIKE TO BE NORMAL.

Hello Sir, After dpdr disorder did you feel love? Please answer my question.I have dpdr disorder and I didn't love anyone 😭.

I’m currently going through it and taking certain measures to relax everything but I just had a quick question I hope you respond quickly to: What are your thoughts on sex and masturb*tion during DP? Does it help? Does it not help? Is there an answer? Thanks so much Ik it’s a bit of a silly question lol

Has anyone who has or is suffering with dp/dr feel like their ears are full all the time and has pressure around the ear?

I’m feeling pretty good and I’m slowly going back to normal but sometimes I feel like especially when I was going through it for the first months or weeks and such I felt very weird about existence k would look at my dog and say “there’s no way he’s real.” And I would look up in the sky or at the sun and say there’s no way such thing can exist, and stuff that would make sense and basic for everyday life just made no sense at all everything and I was questioning the existence of almost everything 😂 I remember I wouldn’t look at sci fi horror and stud because it would freak me out but wouldn’t when I was normal, was I the only one going through this existencial dread ? I would also experience very weird ‘emotions’ that I never experienced before and it was pretty frightening I’m glad I’m going to normal though and I can enjoy everyday things again

Hey I have a question. Can derealization feeling come from just normal anxiety and stress just say about school? Not neccesarily anxiety abnout the condition but about other factors in your life. (also just wanted tto say thankyou im 15 and started experiencing this about a month ago but your videos have helped alot and i know in no time ill feel better!

The anxiety is gone now, but my DPDR hasn’t left yet Help?

I’m so convinced that I died and this is the afterlife, I feel like depersonalisation is just a made up thing & that I’ve died and living in some kind of hell & that I’ll never age, stay this way forever & everything is just in my consciencness, does anyone else feel this way?

Help me please 😭😭😭😭😭😭 I'm so afraid of myself 😭😭😭 dpr is killing me, please 😭😭😭 help me 😭😭😭😭

How much is program

Does Ketamine therapy help DP?

Question to anyone that is experiencing or has experienced this shit. Did you or do u have problems with Sexual function and arousement. Like when u have an orgasm u don't feel it but it works "fine"

How are you supposed to simply “stop” thinking these negative thoughts? I can’t ignore them, even if I recognize that their not true.

Anyone from Pakistan watching this?

Wait wow yours was caused by weed too? I thought it was just a normal panic attack

Does sexual intercourse affect DPDR?
