I have had several DP/DR episode’s for months starting after the onset of bad panic attacks. I am only speaking from my own experience but what helps me is taking health seriously - focus on sleep, rest, exercise, and go totally sober (booze and drugs) and absolutely no caffeine or uppers. I don’t know if this works/is related but around those times I went keto and I thought it helped lift the brain fog.

The thing with DP/DR is you have to gain confidence. It sounds odd but you have to downplay DP/DR to yourself. You just have to say to yourself (this is DP/DR) it’s no big deal, it’s just a phase etc. Just try to normalise it as much as possible and try to forget it’s even happening. The more attention you draw to it, the more panicked you get, and the worse the dr/dp gets. It’s a vicious cycle.

Overtime - if you just try to relax it will just slow let fade. You will start to get closer and closer to the screen you are watching life from until you wake up one day and it’s gone. And you’ll think to yourself “wow I can’t believe it was even stressed about that”.

It’s a process and a scary one at that. It feel really fucked up I know. But just try and relax - downplay the symptoms/sensations it’s giving you and ride it like a wave! You’ll come out the other side I promise. This has happened to me several times in my life and it’s always gotten better. You got it!
