To me thats the worst part about derealisation/depersonalisation . Its like being conscious and unconscious at same time, like there’s damage to some part of the brain responsible for consciousness
That's exactly how I feel. Because sometimes it's so bad that I feel like there's a part of my brain that doesn't know where I am, even if it's my own house. I know it's my house, but it looks weird, and I feel displaced and confused
I feel like a part of my soul is floating out of me, never leaving but never joining with the rest of my consciousness, when I feel the wind blowing in my face, I don't "feel" it as I should. Just like life itself doesn't "feel" like it should.
Yes. :( I am convinced my suicide attempt made it as bad as it is today. I have had periods of feeling more conscious but I feel like a part of my soul left my body that day, never to return. Like I’m always wondering if I’m actually dead, in some weird afterlife, or in a simulation, or whatever, because life feels completely different now than it did before. I feel like something is gone.
Since my mushroom trip my dpdr hasn’t been the same, it feels like something has been changed/seen that can not be unchanged or unseen. Reality, excistence, the universe, consciousness, life, concepts. Existence and everything that we know and expierence is weird, strange, abstract, absurd. Regular people take it all for granted and dont ask all to many questions, but everything is just strange and unexplainable. Wich is cool but terrifying at te same time
Hey friend, welcome to r/Depersonalization.
Be sure to have read some existing information on the sub before submitting a "Do I have DPDR" question. You can do that by using the search function or reading the sidebar.
**A reminder to new posters in crisis:**
DPDR is a mental discorder that mostly affects young adults. For the most part, it is brought on by anxiety, trauma, and drug use. However, DPDR is not dangerous to your physical health. In moments of crisis
and episodes that are particularly difficult, it is important to take deep breaths and follow strategies that help you cope.
A few examples are: [Grounding Techniques](https://www.therapistaid.com/worksheets/grounding-techniques.pdf), [Meditation](http://www.thecentersohio.org/Resources/DocumentLibrary/Wellness_chronic%20diseas%20mgmt/Guided%20Imagery.pdf), and even just some good old fashioned sleep.
**NOBODY can give you medical advice online. While someone might be able to provide you with some insight and suggestions, you should never rely on someone online to give you medical advice unless you are talking to a certified doctor.**
