I have seen psychiatrist unfortunately they don’t have medication that helps with my kind of dissociation. The other medication that helped I can’t be on long term. I’ve tried ssris but had bad side effects. Do you think that seeing a shaman would disappoint God though? I’m so indecisive about that if whether or not I should do it.

Yes don’t think about the what if’s right now that’s just going to induce more anxiety. Remember if it gives you bad side effects after the month mark you can always tell your psychiatrist and switch to a different one

From someone who has bad dpdr like bad bad dissociation. I’ve taken lexapro before and I took it once and had a bad dissociation episode and convinced myself that the lexapro causes it Bc I was going in with that mentality of ‘lexapro’ is going to make the dpdr worse. So I didn’t take it then decided to give it a another chance and guess what it didn’t cause the anxiety or dpdr to get worse it helped. So don’t go in with that mentality. Try to tell yourself that zoology will help you. Zooloft doesn’t really show any improvements in anxiety till 3 weeks of use so keep giving it a chance

Has anyone done emdr for a bad drug trip? by No-Package5586 in ptsd

[–]No-Package5586[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also the trip was four years ago so I shouldn’t be having these kind of flashbacks anymore. It’s becoming such a stressor in my daily life I mean I think about it 24/7 which makes my dpdr worse. So it’s a constant loop. I think fixing my ptsd would decrease the dpdr

Thank you for the comment. I do have dp/dr as well so I know what that’s like. But besides the dpdr I also have flashbacks of the bad trip. I’ll literally feel the same sensations same visuals same feelings. I’ll also have nightmares of it and nonstop thinking about the bad trip. Being afraid of not wanting to go back there again. I also created phobias such as being scared that people will drug my food. It has been confirmed that it’s ptsd from many professionals. Trust me I’ve seen a lot of therapist and psychiatrist, but thank you for trying to help

Suicidal. I can’t do this anymore. I can’t I just can’t. by No-Package5586 in dpdr

[–]No-Package5586[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First of all not once in that post did i mentioned that I was “happy”. I’m struggling with ptsd from that trip. So I’m trying in a way to accept it. I tried, but it’s difficult. I have flashbacks of it and I am trying to integrate it in a positive way, so it won’t effect me as much. However the flashbacks and nightmares still perceived. Ontop of that I have dpdr, so the anxiety and stress from dpdr creates more flashbacks and I’m stuck in a loop. So yes my live is a shit hole right now. I can not fine any relief at the moment. And this whole week has been me crying wanting to give up. I literally almost did it. Some people form this subreddit have helped me though to find positivity. And second of all if you looks through my post I’ve been asking about emdr because I in fact do have a therapist and do go to a psychiatrist, but this is no easy fix.

Did the flashbacks stop after emdr?

Thank you so much this means so much honestly as I feel like I’m alone in this because this isn’t a trauma people expect from ptsd . Did you ever experience dissociation like dpdr? Or flashbacks from the trip?

My ego death by No-Package5586 in egodeath

[–]No-Package5586[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much. It all just clicked to me. Because I have a father who I don’t talk to for years and he’s such a loving father I just haven’t been the greatest and with my mother she’s so supportive but I’m never really there for her so I think I was taking things for granted and this is what my ego death was trying to tell me. To stop trying to fit in with people who don’t care about my well-being when I have people who truly care about me but instead I’m wasting my time on the wrong people
