  • You are not stuck. I've experienced derealization myself, which is a bit different from depersonalization, after smoking weed and just from tramautic events and general depression. I haven't experienced it for more than couple years now. Have you been to a therapist?

    Mine gave my some helpful tips while I was experiencing this and they really helped. If that's not an option for you, you can always ask me questions but you should try to seek proper help and information online instead.

    I wish you the best and I hope you get better soon.

    • Thanks for answering, I think I also have derealization, not depersonalization, they sound similar so I use one that have on my mind at the moment :D

      Yes I went to the therapist, she gave me some pills that I took for 2 weeks, they didn't helped me much, only reduced my anxiety little bit, then she entered me to relaxation therapy and few other similar therapies, its cool, but again it doesn't help much.

      Also I had interesting incident 2 weeks ago, I was at the rave, I didn't sleep all night and drank few sips of beer, I got back home in the morning, and had a panic attack, strangely after that, derealization almost went away and I felt almost 80% cured for some time. But last thursday I was with my friends, I though oh so maybe beer helps me, so again I took few sips, not sure what it did but I got back to my old worst moment of these 2 months, like first days after bad weed trip, now I cant sleep, my body is shaking, especially at night, I have intense heart pounding andsuicidal ideas cross my mind again. I didn't though I can get back to the worst part of this experience just because of drinking some beer :(

      • I can PROMISE you, it will go away. Last year i had an overdose (yes its possible) on weed brownies. My high lasted over 14 hours and had to take 4 advil PM's to induce sleep. I lasted like 8 months with extreme anxiety, suicidal thoughts, random panic attacks (whether i was sleeping or wake) and constant reminder of my regretful mistake. It wasnt until i searched youtube for deep breathing techniques for anxiety. Please check them out. It may seem pointless and stupid, but i promise you with my life (as a testament) that with time (took me apprx 1 month) to have a 40% decline in anxiety attacks. While learning how to "breath" i avoided things that triggered my anxiety (ie: drinks containing caffeine, alcoholic drinks, and avoidable stress,) and i tried living a healthier life and exercised more often. The main thing to getting better is 1) Have faith in that what ever you feel, it is only temporary and CANNOT hurt you. 2) Do not retake what ever caused it, as it can worsen what you feel now. and 3) Deep breathing saved my life, and it will save yours...learn it, and watch many techniques on how to do it. As i said, it seems like it does nothing at first, but it will make life much more beautiful than what it feels like now

      • Just don't focus on it. And try to live life as positively as you can. I'm NOT an expert so please take my advice with a grain of salt. But I think if it's induced by trauma and other things then why not make your life as nontraumatic as possible.

        After doing this I stopped noticing it for awhile and haven't experienced it much since. Good luck to you.
