You got this don’t give up! I’ve been dealing with DP/DR since January of this year and it’s definitely extremely scary. I always try to remind myself how strong i will be once all this is over. Trust the process, i just started taking Zoloft 25mg a few days ago and hoping it helps with this condition that no one seems to understand.
I've had this since I was 18 and I'm now 25. It really sucks and I dunno how I carry on but I want you to know that you're not alone. I feel your pain and I hope you're doing well.
Been in it for 6 years or so. It gets easier, i wont lie to you and say it goes away but it will get easier. For me it is an everyday expirence as well. For me it has become apart of my life. Ive learned to carry on and let go of my anger, anxeity, and depression for it. Sometimes it helps for me to tell people im with that i am not there with them. Despit knowing that they do not understand what that really means/feels like. It still is nice to take some burden away from pretending that i am fine.
You’re strong dealing with this for so long. Yeah it definitely does get easier the longer it goes on as long as I take it one day at a time because if I start to look too far into the future I start to feel overwhelmed.
I had ECT around 6 months ago and developed DPDR after my first treatment for some odd reason. My brother has had it plenty of times so he identified it quickly when I described it to him. It was brutal. Waking up every morning and the first thought was “has it gone away”? Thankfully it finally went away after about 2 months but I truly feel for the people who have to live with it constantly. I’ve had severe anhedonia for the past 2 years and I’m still trying to fight it and find a medication that works. Hang in there and know you aren’t suffering alone.
Mate trust me, imagine this, when your lightheaded your focus goes to your breathing and trying to calm down… And what’s happening is that you think there’s something seriously wrong because there’s no sense of present so if you start letting everything be and just let your mind relax then your mind will start recognizing that things can be normal and how they were 👍🏽
how are you today brother? i have full blown dpdr 24/7 since 8-9 years. "These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world." John 16:33
Unfortunately I still have it, it’s been 5 years of 24/7 dpdr now. It’s my new normal and I forget I have it since I’m so used to it. Life is hard especially when you don’t have any positive feelings in your brain and feel constantly disconnected but I keep going.
There were times when I didn’t leave the house for 3 months especially when I first developed dpdr. However now after 4.5 years of this 24/7, I can get out nearly everyday for at least 30 minutes, it isn’t easy but I’m mostly used to this feeling. I can even meet up with friends and stuff. I was managing short walks after about 6 months and I’ve been slowly pushing myself to do more and more. Hope you feel better soon mate!
@@rhysmentalhealth2521 4.5 years? I have had it for 3 months and i keep getting Worse and Worse everyday and if this keep going i dont know what will happen, but how have You had it for 4.5 years? Ive heard of people getting well after 5-6 months and the most 2 years?
Sorry I’m only replying now, I don’t get notified about replies sometimes. I think mine has stayed for so long because I’m autistic and ended up having really bad breakdowns. I’ve had a lot of trauma in my life and my life is a mess, there’s other things that I don’t talk about online too. You’re right, most people do recover well before they get to the point I’m at so I’m a pretty rare case. It’s been 5 months so I hope you’re doing better now :)
I had bad tinnitus and visual ‘snow’ for the first couple of years. Neither bothers me much nowadays although they’re still there to a small degree. My vision still feels very off due to feeling disconnected from everyone and everything but that’s only if I compare it to how it was before dpdr. I guess you could say it’s become my new normal, feeling and seeing this way.
Did you even watch the video dude 😂 It was a 5 minutes drive. I probably drive once every few months on my ‘good’ days. Everybody reacts differently I guess.

We’re both strong for fighting with this illness! I hope the Zoloft helps you feel better. Thank you for the kind words 💙

How’re you doing lately?

Have you solved the problem, and how are you doing now.
