I've had dpdr for almost 4 years at this point, i haven't told anyone about it though. I only recently realized what it was called, and I don't know what to do. It's definitely ruined a ton of events in my life, and i don't know how to get rid of it. Well, I know that I must look beyond it, and think of the bright side, but I can't seem to stop thinking about it. It's been at it's absolute WORST POINT for like 6 months now and i don't know how to get it back on track. If you see this, I was wondering if you'd have any advice. I don't know how i would react getting my life back, I'd probably cry for a week straight. Your videos and other people's videos are a VERY VERY VERY great help, knowing that it's not just me, and other people have this problem makes it somewhat easier! Too bad there aren't more people covering this topic, it's a serious deal to the people being affected by it. Anyways I hope you see this, and maybe you could give some advice!

Hey, thanks for your comment 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 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. You CAN and WILL recover 😊 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 👍

@@Dpmanual Tysm for telling me! I will definitely try to improve my sleep. Sleep and stress are what I think keep overlapping the dpdr. I was just sitting down one day and it happened out of nowhere. I didn't know what it was for the longest time ever, but then I overcomplicated it by thinking about it constantly. So then I had all this extra dpdr stress, on top of family stress and any other stresses. During this Summer I will most certainly be trying to sleep for a normal amount of time, at normal times, and I'll try to cut down on the stress. Your website definitely helped me realize some things, and I really hope I will get through this!

This is kind of a long read, but maybe helpful to someone. I’ve been suffering from the DR aspect of DPDR for about 3 years now. I didn’t have any clue what it was until my first meeting with my now psychiatrist who suspected this to be my condition. Weirdly the DR didn’t really set in until years after I stopped Binge smoking. I stopped smoking because I started developing frequent paranoia(after a traumatic event), not just when I was high, but when I was sober too! This was very new to me, and my days were constantly filled with irrational fear, always looking over my shoulder, this hyper vigilance, and mistrust for people that I had trusted with my life prior to the paranoia. This went on for about 4-5 years. It was during this time I swapped the THC for alcohol, and at the peak of my Binge drinking, one morning I woke up from what I thought was a hangover, and as the day progressed this “hangover” just didn’t seem to go away. The disconnect from reality; this clear veil over my eyes that just slightly separated me from my surroundings had started to form, and after weeks and months, I realized it wasn’t going away. I began to drink heavier, just to try and cope, but that only seemed to make things worse. The one benefit is that while my DR seemed to only get worse, my paranoia and inhibitions seemed to vanish. After much work with my psychiatrist and talking to a few other mental health professionals, the general consensus is that the DPDR developed to in a way protect from the Paranoia and Hyper vigilance that one can find themselves in. I’d imagine in the case of Post Malone, he probably was living a very fast paced life, and introducing chemicals like THC, alcohol, and who knows what else, which I suspect was probably the catalyst leading to the forming of the disorder. Then the anxiety you develop from it if left unchecked is the driver. The good news is that unlike many other mental health disorders, this is one that generally becomes less debilitating over time, and in most cases, trying not to think about it seems to help. In my case, meeting my now wife and the role she plays as an amazing supportive partner is what really helped me. I wish the best to anyone out there going through this!

I’ve been dealing with DPDR for 6 days now and I’m finally starting to feel more lucid. Here is what has helped me the most: 1) Understanding what exactly is happening to me and why, but then accepting it and not dwelling on it. Distract yourself and try to continue your usual routines. 2) Talking to people about what I’ve been experiencing. I’m genuinely shocked at how many people in my life had experienced DPDR themselves or who had heard of it happening to others. It felt so calming and reassuring to be heard and understood. 3) Staying active, especially physically. Bouldering, jogging, weight lifting, walking. It helps so much and I noticed a very clear difference in my energy and lucidity before and after physical activity. 4) Music!!! It has been so grounding, calming, and stimulating. 5) Getting enough sleep. My symptoms were at their absolute worst when I messed up my sleep schedule. Try to sleep a normal amount and at reasonable hours. 6) Journaling. I documented my symptoms in my journal and recounted my experience (this also helps with memory issues and time dilation because it helped contextualize myself and what I’ve been experiencing) I also documented my experience on video so I could watch later and observe myself when I felt better. Hang in there, you will get through this! Trust your brain’s ability to heal and recover. And talk to people you trust and stay active!!
