Derealization sucks

[Dawglaw]

A bad experience w ms Molly and a weekend bender w booze brought on derealization. It's been over 5 months now.

I have overcome the anxiety and I think the dr is getting better. I can go for hours now without noticing it. Just when I think I'm getting out of the woods forever, bam, I'm back in dream land. Three steps forward, three steps back.

CBT taught me to overcome panic attacks and function normally, when willi be able to look at this experience in the rear view mirror?

Acceptance has also helped but the episodes are annoying and uncomfortable....

Cest la vie.

I understand but one day I just "snapped out of it". I know it sounds crazy but I had it for months and its gone now. Ive always had anxiety though, thats never gonna leave.

weird...ive been feeling weird for the past few months...and i looked up dr, and i think i have that too....feels like nothings real, and i make choices and dont really fear consequences that would of normally scared me. Sucks man. It says their isnt really a treatment, besides curing the underlying (In mot cases) anxiety. Good luck brother
