Well, I’ve had DP for about two years now, so I figured it was about time I shared my story. Who knows, it may even help me a bit. Unlike many other people, my DP did not start as a result of using drugs. In fact I’ve never even tried any illegal drugs. It began […]
Randy
Hello. My name is Randy. I want to share my story with you. I don’t know whether or not I have DP, but after reading these stories I suspect that I do. So far, I’ve been diagnosed with major depression (severe, recurrent) and PTSD resulting from a horrific experience of rape and humiliation during my […]
Monique
My name’s Monique and I’m 21, I’ve experienced DP/DR in one form or another since I was about 14 but in the cruelest form since I was about 17. I guess my story starts a few years before I had smoked marijuana. I had always experienced depression, especially in my first year of high school, and I would […]
Keri
Hi my name is Keri, I have had DP for about 8 years now. I was so happy when I found this website. I have searched for years about this disorder and I could not find anything about it. It really helps to know that you are not alone. I have read just about every […]

After reading a few of the DP stories, I find myself compelled to write. I found your site by searching on ‘depersonalization disorder’ which is a term I came across while re-reading a book by Suzanne Segal called Collision with the Infinite. I was curious to see what sort of information was on the internet these days. I […]

It’s funny. I never thought I’d find anything pertaining to this topic…ever. Then I find this site. I thought I was the only one with the problem. I can’t tell reality from my dreams anymore. When I conduct my daily activities fully awake, it feels like I’m dreaming. This has lead to an uncaring attitude on […]
Jonathan
Hello, I’m Jonathan, 20 years old, and I live in Massachusetts. I’ve read some of these stories and noticed that a lot of people get DP from drug usage or a traumatic experience. I firmly believe I’ve had mine since birth, or at least- as far back as I can remember. My father has DP, my […]
Jon
When I was 13 I smoked pot for the first time. I felt completely nothing, maybe I just imagined that I felt something so I could impress my friends who had already been high numerous times. After trying to get high again and failing, I decided that me and two other friends would keep smoking […]
Irina
I’ve had episodes of DP over the past 8 years. The most disturbing one was the one triggered by weed. I’ve had Dp before I started smoking weed and now that I’ve had an awfull trip I think i better stay away from the drug.I think I’m figuring it out though. It’s NOT the ultimate reality, it’s […]
Gabby
Hi… I’m Gabby. I am 16 and I have DP… On June 1st, 2001 I was hit by a car. My whole entire elementary school saw the whole thing from beyond the backyard gates during recess as I walked back from getting pizza with my then best friend Jovon. I was only 11 years old. Now at […]
