Guys i swear to god when i got dr/dp first time (a year ago ) from smoking weed i thought i would never be normal or anything. But now i dont feel any symtoms almost it’s gods plan!
So I have watched some of your videos and earlier today, I felt this dpdr coming on but instead of fighting it, I remembered what you said and let it happen. The rush of it passed away really quickly because it IS just a protective mechanism when your stressed so I guess when I wasn’t fighting it, I wasn’t stressed so it lessened because it had no reason to be there anymore. I just accepted it and I felt calm. Idk if this made sense, lol I tried. But the point of this was to say thank you because you really helped me today :)
Thank you so much dude, everything you said is completely true. I've been experiencing DPDR for 2 months, or so and every day is harder and harder because i kept trying to fight it. I think i just have to live with the disorder and accept it until it goes away.
@@onlycielo You have to forget about this "total recovery". I know it's hard. But this kind of thinking will make you not accept DP/DR. Instead, try to cultivate an attitude of "I don't care about full recovery, I am going to try to lead the best life possible along with my DP/DR".
@@RealSwamyG But i don't wanna live with DP/DR though, i wanna accept it and be cool with it until it goes away. I don't wanna have this forever. That's why i want to know if it's possible that it fully disappears.
What hes trying to say that it will go away as time goes on. You have to embrace it and live with it in life. Add some positive changes and practice coping mechanisms like meditation and positive thinking. And it goes away. Sometimes you dont even know it went away because you just kkept living life other times you do because it goes away in layers each layer your perspective gets better and feel more grounded in your body and surroundings. What helped me is practicing acceptance every day all day and redirecting thoughts and relaxing the body and be mindful of shallow breathing. It gets easier as it goes on
I’ve watched several videos skipping because they’re some story or pick me up advice that is generalized to what works for them and I keep thinking, they don’t get it... do they even really have it? So I’m beginning to understand there’s different forms or depths maybe(?)... not sure but I do like your video. I wasn’t sure about the fighting part because I must have something other than ocd with mine because if I don’t fight it, there’s no purpose for life and my soul is experiencing pain in a body that it can be free of. The less I fight the deeper I get. I have noticed hormonal shifts trigger the “this is my body my souls not caring about connecting to”. But my favorite part was about accepting being confused with tolerating. That gives me something to learn & try to understand.
Thanks, Tammy. Many do see fighting DP as something that gives them meaning and purpose. My advice would be that you can still gain your purpose by taking the power away from DP WITHOUT fighting. It's like using a non-violent approach to taking power away from DP. Think of the strategies of Dr.Martin Luther King or Gandhi, they did take power away from oppressive forces, but through non-violent means. Accept DP, but don't let it have power over you. This means doing things that might make you uncomfortable and you feel a little scared to do. Hope that helps.
@@jerrylowe8615 hey, tbh that’s a loaded question - it’s like saying do you ever experience hunger, or anxiety etc. In my opinion you’ll always have this experience it’s part of our fight or flight response, but how it effects you is completely different - I can say mentally I’m in the best place I’ve ever been, so I still experience DP, definently BUT it doesn’t effect me like it use too. I do all the things I use to be afraid of cause my confidence level in terms of experiencing it is really high. Now I go into the experience if it comes, which helps take the fear out of it. Doesn’t run my life like it use too - hope that helps! Swamy’s course helped me a LOT. Can’t recommend enough spending the $$ & doing it
@@Justafayze Did you go from having it 24/7? I have it constantly even when I don't feel anxious. It's a fucking nightmare. Haven't had any relief for 6 months. Glad to hear you're feeling good
Thank you for this! I’ve slept quite bad the past few days and the lack of sleep makes always DP so much worse. Maybe this is a good chance to start this acceptance!
Hi Swamy, I'm so glad I found your channel! I had a particularly intense disconnection this morning and your affirmation videos saved me from calling 911. I started having DP/DR as a result of taking Klonopin and now as near the end of weaning myself off I'm wondering if all of this applies to me since I may have nervous system and brain damage. I find all of these videos on overcoming panic and anxiety and dp/dr helpful but in the back of my head there is always the voice saying "Yeah but these people weren't on benzos for years and their chemistry wasn't changed.". It happened last week listening to Claire Weekes and now today for you as well since my body won't allow me to exercise and my cognition won't allow me to get into "the flow" of my hobbies. I don't know if it's a side effect of the medication or a result of constant stress and trauma but it's making it feel like it's a lot harder to combat or have a sense of agency over. For me it doesn't ever leave it waxes and wanes in intensity but it is always there which is just so difficult. When I first started getting the symptoms I accepted them as side effects and made the mistake of isolating myself and stopping work and seeing friends and now I feel like I'm too far gone to ever feel safe and normal in the world ever again It's completely overwhelming me. Any thoughts you could give would be greatly appreciated, thanks!
Dp, is not directly caused from drugs, it's from convincing yourself death is around the corner and your brain dissociates from your body, I read this from the dpmanual website, idk I'm not a professional, maybe you should talk to one sence you have a pretty specific situation, it would be worth the money
Yes It happens because your anxiety levels were too high for too long. And it is a vicious cycle because then dp causing even more anxiety even though lowering anxiety is the goal
I already accepted it , I don’t fear it am not putting energy to it . But the fact of u physically not having it , hasn’t come . Am not feeling how am supposed to even after doing what your supposed to , am not stressing nor forcing it eather idk why am not at least feeling like is fading away
Honestly saying you people have to keep the course free you are charging soo money so how can normal people could buy that . If you keep your course free and people will recover you even dont know how much blessings they will give . But no matter in this greedy world no one help anyone without money you are a great man 🤔🙄
Does anybody get light headaches and feel like everything that has happened today has been long time ago? I get stuck in my thoughts and try to remember every little thing that I have done. I remember them but they feel like a long time ago
Yes, get used to it so you'll stop caring about DP. What's more important is that you live life normally. Don't let DP stop you from doing what you want. It may be hard in the beginning, but it gets easier.
Hey man, I know it’s hard. But something that is key to knowing is that dpdr goes away on its own!!! You yourself cannot make it go away, stop resisting, stop thinking about It, and just think “man I really couldn’t care less about this because it will go away soon”. The more you fight dpdr the worse it gets. Once you stop thinking about it and stressing over it, I promise you that it will fade away and you will notice. You’ll get through this 💙💙💙
I experienced it once, my first time ever because I had an intense anxiety last week. It felt like I was floating and it seems I am disconnected to my body. I am so scared and It keeps me thinking that it might happen again but I don't want to. And lastly am I having a DP/DR disorder now or it will be a disorder if this thing might happen frequently or chronically? Do I need to go to a doctor or a psychiatrist now?
Swamy i have a qustian, u say to not fight dpdr and acept the feelings i acept them, but for exemple i have a scary feeling and a thought that evreyting is not real i need to say to my self that its not true, or i just need to not pay attention to this? Or its okay to say that i know that its not true and its onlay bec the dpdr?
This was really hard to read, but it sounds like your having existential thoughts, watches some videos a out existential thoughts with dpdr, it's a common side effect, I gott it pretty hard like two weeks ago, just tell your sell oh I'm having these existential thoughts about whatever again, and know that these thoughts aren't important they're just like junk mail, and go back to doing whatever you where doing
Yes that can be common. Try not to worry too much. Worrying itself can make it harder to fall asleep. I'd suggest working out and doing some mild exercise before going to bed to make yourself tired.
as someone with adhd its been very hard accepting that the best cure for dp is not to focus on it but to not engage and accept it. No one really talks about this strategy. thank you for the video. the microphone volume on your talking is a little quiet.
I have struggled so hard for about three years now. I feel I've got like this brain tumor or something because my memory is so poor. During this time some horrible things have happened to me my mom passed away, my father turned on me and one best friend past away along with another betraying me. Besides these things too many problems with finances. I need some peace and I I want to try so hard to let go of this and move on with my life but like I said it's a cycle. I get a feeling of being ill or I'm tired because I stayed up all night and if I stayed up all night then that makes me feel worse. I'm trying my best but I just can't figure a way out.

That's a very good attitude. DP/DR goes away on its own, provided you accept it and be patient. Also, make positive changes in your life.
@@RealSwamyG But will i get totally recovered? Like it will totally go away or it will still be there?
