Hi I just recently found this website and to say the least I am fascinated. I have spent the greater portion of the last 2 years of my life, examining, reading, studying, analyzing, and gathering information as to why I feel the way I do or don’t in the case. It has given me tremendous […]
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 […]
When I first visited this website and I read the stories I cried. I have been suffering from DP for 3 years now and it’s nice to know that there are other people out there like me. To start my story, I used to be a real big fan of weed.(not anymore!) I started smoking […]
oh my how long has it been. I am 48 years old, yes 48 years old and I have dealt with this for that many years. At times I feel so far away from myself, but then I think who am I. I am floating around up there looking down threw the clouds. Floating, floating…..I […]
When I was 12, I smoked pot; did meth, drank pretty much, did whatever I could get a hold of drug and alcohol wise, then one night when I was 16, I smoked a joint and got this weird feeling in my head; I thought that my husband might have poisoned me. So I went […]
This is blowing my mind. I cant believe there are other people out there that feel “not here” as well. I like to call it being on “auto-pilot” not that I can’t control what I’m doing, its like my soul has more important matters to deal with than everyday things. Often times I will be driving, […]
I am 29.I have suffered from DP since the age of 13. I have always been academically successful, a straight A student, so when I first got a full blown DP panic attack my life changed. I was so confused about what was going on with me, I could never explain my symptoms to anyone. […]
I was diagnosed with Depersonalization Disorder when I was 15. I first started getting the episodes when I was 10, and they scared me but I didn’t tell anyone about them basically because I thought everyone must have these sorts of things happen to them. I mean, I thought that it’s impossible to everyone to […]
I remember in 11th grade when my English class had to read Albert Camus’ “The Stranger” and everyone thought it was boring. I stole my copy from my school. I couldn’t identify with the situation (I never stabbed anyone on the beach), but I could identify with the underlying theme or pointlessness.The one feeling that […]
So reading all of the stories listed have helped somewhat, “somewhat” in that in about 10 minutes I will have forgotten all about this. My name is Joshua. I am 31 years of age. I have lost 28 years of that life and would actually consider every moment since 28 lost as well. It’s the […]
First off, I just have to tell you what an amazing encouragement your site has been to me. When I found this website and read about DP and others experiences with it, I couldn’t stop myself from crying. I kept wanted to say “YES! YES! I FELT THAT WAY TOO!” I can’t even explain how […]
The fan blowing on my feet is the only comfort I can feel at this moment. The flannel sheets are soft on my skin, my pillow is tucked under me in just the right places, but I still can’t feel completely at ease.I can stare at the closet door all night long wondering why I […]
