Please, sit back and relax. If you are suffering from Derealization/Depersonalization (like I once did), I'm sure you are eager to get rid of the condition once and for all. If the condition is new to you, or maybe you have had it for some time, let me assure you that DP/DR is absolutely, 100% surmountable by every single person. I will do my best to help you on your journey to recovery with what I have learned myself as a sufferer, and what I have learnt from others who have recovered. Best of wishes to you.
I have considered myself cured for some time now, but a few days ago I noticed something. Yet another symptom has left me, one that I got so used to, I did not really notice it before it left me. The symptom that left me was the chest thightness. It really felt like a big knot being untied, and no matter how hard I try, I can not feel anxious anymore.
Divert your mind – One of the most effective ways of leaving a habit, and thusly reducing your derealization, is to engage your mind in something that takes you away from the triggers of your anxiety. You can engage yourself in sports or any kind of voluntary services where you need to devote yourself. It will allow you little time to think about your condition and how you are feeling.
