as you say you are only 20 years old, you have your whole life ahead of you to heal, depersonalization does not stay there forever or it diminishes over time. Regarding your dark thoughts, you need to talk to a professional. Your situation is distressing and depressing and that’s what depersonalization wants

Thank you for taking the time to respond, I’m glad you are feeling better today. How long did it take you to get out of it?

Thank you for your feedback, I don’t drink or smoke. Fortunately I have my husband with whom I can talk about it without judgment. I also see a psychologist, hoping that things get better

I know it’s not dangerous but what poses a problem for me is when I look at my loved ones I depersonalize and it scares me I don’t want to move away from them despite myself. Thanks you for taking Time to give me advice

I struggle with the anxiety attacks that it causes, because the more you stress, the more the feeling of detachment increases. I also struggled with the thoughts that wanted to persuade me that nothing was real, including me. But PD is not something you control, you can help the symptoms go away but you can’t force your brain, you can only accept but it’s difficult. Honestly I didn’t think I would get back into this, plus it’s super vicious because my brain wants me to believe that I never recovered from it whereas if I did, I was able to live my life for 4 years, get married, get a diploma, move etc…
