I guarantee that most people who think they have chronic fatigue, actually have depersonalization / dissociation. When they do body control, body sensation techniques, to reconnect the thoughts with the feelings and bodily movements, it will start to feel like you've been awoken from the dead. You'll realize that it was just all in your head, or at least mostly. Because I'm sure if you are dissociated for a long time, you were probably laying in your bed for a long time too, so you have that problem to deal with as well. What happened is that your thoughts became totally disconnected from your bodily movement. You're feelings might have become disconnected from your thoughts as well, if you were more severely dissociated. What you're doing is reconnecting your thoughts with your bodily movement and the feelings. I was trapped in my bed for about 8 months with dissociation depersonalization. A couple or a few times I got up and tried to walk around or you can run around. As I was walking I wanted to run but my body wouldn't do it. I could imagine myself run but when I wanted to sprint off, my body lagged behind. I just kept waiting for a day when I would feel like I had energy and strength to hop out of bed and start moving and doing things.But it never happened. I had to figure out that I was dissociated DP. Dissociation like cutting the fuel line to the engine. I bet this coronavirus is really going to cut people's fuel lines badly. It's going to take them forever to realize that they're actually dissociated and not full of chronic fatigue. But getting back in control of your body, getting that strong sense of the exterior within your own body. That's reattaching all the gears and starting the engine. The reason why you felt like you could barely move was because you essentially disconnected your brain from your body.
@@one9seventy535 well, yeah, that's definitely a great thing. Or something that keeps your mind and body activated, that's why a daily job is healthy if you aren't doing anything else to stay busy. BUT I'm talking about severe depersonalization in which you can't even think enough to get off the ground, per se. You also have to do grounding meditation techniques. Also, the creators of our bodies made it so, that you can't be very evil and also be fully engaged. So you have to take care of your moral philosophies or get right with the Jesus. The New Testament is much more based on real morals, so I would go with that one, if you're choosing religions. Then exercise. Or read books, not comments and articles. Stay busy. Or at least, just keep thinking.
I can’t believe it’s this simple. Swamy I have tried every med in the book, exercise, therapy and read every book and nothing has given me more relief than this 22 minute video everyday. You should get the Nobel peace prize
Kayleigh i’ll try that right now. I really fear that what I’m feeling is something worse, like a brain issue or slowly going insane. I hope it will go away:(
Switched off at the "your worst fears are not going to come true." Thanks for reminding me of my worst fears when I wasn't even thinking about them and pls learn more about the concept of positive speech.
Some meditations can feel very distant and dream-like which can be helpful for some emotions but when having dissociative episodes can just reaffirm the disconnect between me and reality. Instead your voice and the way you spoke was very grounding. It felt more like a friend was walking me through a tough time and I couldn’t be more appreciative.
This was very helpful! I can remember having these feelings off and on from the time I was 8 along with anxiety but didn’t recognize what it was until I was 32! This guided meditation is heaven sent, thank you for helping each and every person who deals with this! Sincerely I am grateful 😊
i recemmomd doing this meditation at least everyday. And whenever you feel anxious and your mind starts going throughout your day. take a second to gather yourself. take a couple deep breaths. and send your thoughts and emotions into your body. within a week you’ll start feeling normal again.
Thank you so, so much. I've been living in another country and every time I look at a photo or video of my face, or in the mirror, I feel like I'm looking at another person with these big, empty eyes. I feel as if I don't feel. I think the anxiety of everything just made me turn off. Or maybe I've awoken from a long, long sleep of anxiety and a lifetime of people pleasing where I couldn't really explore who I was. I can barely remember a single detail of my life and who I actually am, and your kind words made me realise that my body was just operating on autopilot so it wouldn't get hurt. Thank you for helping me wake up and reconnect. Thank you.
Oh wow, i really always thought only i have that. You describe how i feel.. I'm glad i know I'm not alone, even though i don't wish it to anyone. This meditation actually helps ... glad i found it when i was really desperate
Hey Swamy. In my opinion this the best meditation for depersonalization in the internet! I wonder why it has just few views :/ btw thank you.. you have helped me so much!
I think there’s little views because the majority of people with derealization suffer years and years going to doctors , but they are misdiagnosed . Great video , I don’t suffer from this but I like to know a lot about mental disorders and how our complex mind works .
This helps so much. i come back to this once or twice a week when i notice stress is accumulating or stuck in my head. Earned a permanent spot in my recently viewed :)
@@RealSwamyG Hi, thank you for your videos. Can you just tell me if you ever experienced an overwhelming fear of death, and - can it fade away along with dpdr? Is it posssible to get back to normal and stop thinking about death + not feel anxiety when thinking about it? Is fear/obsession with death part of dpdr?
Amazing. Thank you so much Swammy. A beautiful and effective meditation...and I can really feel your genuine care and support and authenticity. Thank you :-)
Hi Swamy! Why in derealization people have existential questions? I am a believer of God, but with derealization I questioned God and everything. The way humans look seemed to me strange and that thought scared me. I don't have the symptom anymore but I have some existential absurd thoughts. What can I do my friend? Thank so much for sharing this. Pd: English is not my native language.
Tatiana Sandoval Portella same here! My existential thoughts are really scary and it’s so easy to dwell on them... Scared and anxious mind easily starts to think about these questions because the mind is uncertain. I guess also that it’s minds way to keep the concentration away from the life, when it wants to protect us.
Hello Tatiana, It's a mystery why we have these existential and philosophical thoughts. But rest assured that you are not alone in this. Also, these are not harmful. A lot of times we can think that these thoughts mean there is something wrong with us or we think that we may be losing our minds. None of these are true. Let them come and go. I consider them as an invitation to become more curious about the world and life. This way of thinking reduces the fear around them. You can also choose to see them as nothing but excess mental energy producing all kinds of thoughts. Nothing more than that. Change your relationship to these thoughts and change the way you see them. That will reduce the fear.
@@RealSwamyG Thank you so much! I think that these questions appear because the sensations are so new and strange that we ask ourselves what are they, where they come from and those questions trigger bigger existential questions. I am anthropologist and all my life I have been very curious! I think that the only thing that we have to do is wait with patience, doing excercise, eating real food and don't worry too much about those thougths. Now I am fine again. Thank you again Swamy. I read your website, it was very very helpful!
I've had derealization constantly for going on 3 months now. I've tried everything, my medications stopped working abruptly in december. I've been in a psych ward, it didn't help, seen 5 different psychs since december and they're no help. I'm so scared and would rather be dead, but I have a 5 year old son to raise. I can't help him if I'm not mentally here.
I’m in the exact situation but with depersonalization, I just got out of a psych ward and now I’m scared cause they started me on a new medication.. ☹️
I’ve had it for 6 months, but this month it got worse, I switched to a new medication afterwards and idk how to feel, scared and afraid of the future, and idk if I should be on medication, I overcame my anxiety and depression so why need it again? Well I guess it’s cause the paroxetine started to make me feel bad instead of good, so doctor thinks a new med will help but it won’t, cause there’s no med for this crap and I hate it. It’s been constant and really high since July4. I started praying to god about it and meditating yesterday, this is very scary and I honestly don’t know if it’ll go away…
It’s so scary. Mine came from a bad shrooms trip. But it does go away even if it feels like it can’t in the moment. It just takes time and effort. Make sure you’re constantly relaxing yourself and telling yourself it’s just a state of mind. And psychotherapy does help a lot.
@@evanboardman08 damn that was 6 months ago… Still have it lmao but its ok, I’m in pain everyday cause of the medication withdrawal but I’m doing good things, I have a job now, and I’m going to the gym, and also hanging w friends, it sucks though… but I’m glad to be alive no matter what
Ads? I have never enabled ads on my channel. I wonder if TH-cam is inserting ads even in videos that hays not explicitly set up monetization. Anyway, that's a bummer. Please use Brave Browser app so you don't have to see any ads ever again.
Yeah, I have an external speaker and have to have it at full volume just to be able to hear it at all. Otherwise you would have to have it at full blast with headphones.

@@one9seventy535 and stay off forums. They lead to negativity, triggers and obsessive thinking about the condition which fuels it
Amazing comment anonymous. It is a very strange phenomena! Truely awful!

Haha, sure. You can go ahead and nominate me.
If anybody reads this I’ve found that reading really helps it sounds cliche but it really does if you aren’t usually into reading x
Reading totally helps!! That and video games that take lots of focus/entertain you well.
Yes and reading out loud also helps even more with depersonalization as it reinforces you being in the present moment too!
It makes it worse for me:( My hands touching the book just feel weird and the book feels miles away from me:(
Jasmine2806 or try listening to a podcast with your eyes closed may help or listen to a spoken book x
Kayleigh i’ll try that right now. I really fear that what I’m feeling is something worse, like a brain issue or slowly going insane. I hope it will go away:(
