Hi im 16 an i just got this at least i think i do. It happened 2days. I smoked at night and my friends sais i was acting realy stange so i wwnt to sleep and in the morning i was fine so i smoked again in the morning and it came back but after 4 long hours it subsided. I had a dance show latter that night.i was totaly fine untill ten minutes after i got their.everythig was slow and it took forever for my brain to relize what was happening and i felt like i was out side of my body. It made itweird to preform my class dance in front of people but it was like mybody remembered the dance and not me and it scared the s**t out of me. Today im fine and it hasn thappened again but i still feel a little distant an am afraid it will happen again bexause people have had it for year.
has anyone just had it for a day?

Hey i'm just letting everybody know that it does eventually go away, i had it for about 5 or 6 months and i know it's horrible and scary, but it does go. It was one of the worst experiences of my life and i felt hopeless. It's completely gone now, i took each day as it came and didn't give up on myself, i tried really hard not to think about it and just embrace the present kinda. But trust me, as time goes on, the less you'll think about it and soon it'll be gone. Hope this helps

... Mine started after an argument with my boyfriend. I was letting the tub fill with water, preparing to soak in, all of a sudden my head felt as if it were exploding inside, something told me to run outside as fast as i could, just then, while standing at the door, i've heard myself whimper from pain. Ever since then i feel like nothing is real, as if i am not driving my car, but it's a movie i am constantly made to watch in 3d. Not long after my panic attacks came back, was put on Xanax and propranolol but that only helped to keep my panic attacks at ease. I feel sometimes as if i've done something wrong/ May be... I haven't come across the name "depersonalization" , my little sister did , after i described what it is that i am experiencing. I'm 20, have been taking over the counter sleeping pills since i was a freshman in hs. As a senior I attempted to commit suicide by abusing what has helped me to fall asleep for so long. That obviously did not work. Moved on from there, now im here, replying to something that feels the most familiar to me, I cannot feel happy or excited. I constantly question my sanity, i have no clue how to make this go away... two days ago, in my bedroom i begun to decipher the reasons... the real ones, somehow i have gone off the original thought to "what if im not who i think i am, and this bed is not mine, and i shouldn't be here since i could be in deep s**t, who am i? why is this happening?". That has triggered an another panic attack... this is really wearing me out.

Hi,I am 21 years old. I suffer from GAD general anxiety disorder.One day 3 weeks ago I woke up and baam-depersonalized! Some days it's awful,others it's a little better but it doesn't go away. Now I am taking an antidepressant Fevarin,hope it will help.My doctor claims it helps a lot with depersonalization/derealization. I just want to ask you. Despite those feelings of disconnection,brain fog,do you have this feeling that you feel very weird looking at the world through your own eyes. It's just such an unpleasant feeling that I feel strange that I am who I am and I can see people and things from 1st person and sometimes I feel claustrophobic in my own body I just want to escape from it.Do you get those feelings as well?

p.s.I forgot to mention that since I got the depersonalization I suffer from extreme insomnia.I just cannot fall asleep and if I do so it's maximum for an hour.

I'm 15 and been suffering from this as well. I went to three doctors, they said depression and anxiety, put me on pills. Didn't work. It's been going on strong for seven months now. I've been looking it up every once in a while to try and see what it really was and i stumbled upon this. I was in the room while my dad died, our living room, he had a heart attack. But this was three months before anything like this started. So i'm not sure if that's what caused this. But anyway, any more easy suggestions on how to get this to go away? I kind of would like to feel like i'm actually here for my high school years.

Hey guys, I'm going through this now. Although I truely believe it is a passing thing and thing's will go back to normal. I sort of have it for a few hours everyday and then the rest of the day I'm fine. And guess how it started? Yes, weed. I only did weed a couple of times, and I was fine. But one day, a friend gave me a joint with no tobacco, just weed, and he told me to hold it in for longer etc and hold it in my lungs for longer etc and yeah I got really high and had a very bad trip and panic attack and all that stuff, thought I went back in time and all that sh*t.
And it triggered some anxiety. But, I know it will pass, the more you focus on it, the longer it will stay, and it seems most people who are going through it are staying in their rooms etc, its the worst thing you can do. You gotta go out with friends, get a good daily routine, and exercise (I`m gonna start excersisng tomorrow haha :) ) and I truely believe we'll all be fine soon, although it is f*****g scary when you have those moments of questioning excistence, your watching tv and questioning everything like "wtf? Why am i watching tv? how does this excist?"....look guys, its just a symptom of anxiety. Everyone knows weed triggers anxiety.
Also, weed is bad for intelligent people. Because it makes them think deeper.
Moral of the story is. Stay away from drugs, there is a reason why theyre illegal.
You'll get through it, it seems we're all pretty young (im 21) and it's just a confusing time, but stay positive, and those positive moments you do have where your head doesn't feel so foggy, really use those moments to your advantage to realise you'll get through it eventually.
Stay strong!
