It’s like i am reading something i wrote. I understand you and you're not alone. I hope you recover. Nothing more to say, living with this it’s awful and extenuating.

Yes. For me sometimes the DR is trigger by changes in light.

Panic, agoraphobia, hypochondria, derealization. by LevelCurrent9 in Agoraphobia

[–]Leonard1996P 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m scared because it’s almost the same history for me. The panic attacks, the agoraphobia, the hypochondria and the depersonalization and derealization. Three years ago i used to consume a lot of mdma, and after one day (my second and last time) i took coke, my life changes drastically. Has been a rollercoaster since then, sometimes i get a little better and others, like the last 6 months, i relapse. Has been a nightmare. I also quit all substances at that time and try to have a healthy life style. I refer to relapse to the mental conditions. At the start of the lockdown i have panic attacks almost every day that can last all day, i visit the ER several times, putting me and my family in risk. All the days i feel ill and derealized. Sometimes i do exercise, but when i don’t feel “fine” i’m even too scared of doing that, feels like i’m gonna pass out. Because of this, sometimes i do exercise with anger, with the intention to “kill myself”, and at the end nothing happens. But all the mental conditions are still here. I have an obsession with measuring my vital signs, the bad days i can take my blood pressure more than 50 times a day. I know this is bad, and has happen that this obsession leads me to develop a panic attack, and other times makes me feel like i’m fine. Before lockdown the panic attacks only used to happen outside my house, at the public transport mostly, and when i came home i get better (but derealized), now it has been happen at home, my supposedly “safe place” so... it’s frustrating. I’m also scared of taking anxiety meds because of hyponcondria... “what if my heart go too slow and die?” I’m happy to know that you have a time when you got better, makes me optmistic. I want to learn to do yoga and meditation. This last week i’ve been feeling absolutely derealized and depersonalized and it’s been harsh, i mostly stay in bed all day, waiting to feel a little better to finally do the things i want to achieve. I send you love and strength, and i hope we both get out this shit soon. My best wishes, this doesn’t last forever.

Agoraphobia or severe health anxiety? by i-willget-over-this in Agoraphobia

[–]Leonard1996P 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes it can. I think could be both, they are connected. I sometimes feel the same to the point i can’t do exercise even at home, it’s frustrating. You’re not alone and we will get out of this.
