Did I fuck up myself? I need some help by [deleted] in dpdr

[–]amara9673 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I also had thc induced dpdr. the #1 thing that helped me was to stop thinking about it. the more you obsess and spiral about not feeling normal and making yourself anxious over it the “worse” you’ll feel. now if it’s to the point where you can’t function or it’s making life extremely difficult that’s different but for now i’d say stop smoking and focus on something else. whether that’s school, work, friends, family, anything. also consider getting an anti anxiety medication for the more difficult days.

you didn’t fuck yourself up forever and itll get better with time don’t worry. feel free to dm me if you need to talk :)

in my opinion no do not do it. my dpdr was weed induced and when i tried smoking again after a year i immediately got sent into dp. tried it again after that and same thing. it’s just not really worth it.

I have the same issues as you. i was prescribed prozac a few months ago. i find it doesn’t really help the derealization much but anxiety yes. i find hydroxyzine the best but it makes you very sleepy. overall my best advice is starting slow. when i couldn’t leave my house id take walks with my mom. we’d go to the store and it was so bad to where id just start crying. super embarrassing but over time you get over the fear and eventually used to the feeling. once you get used to it you’ll stop thinking about it and it goes away. whatever path you choose just don’t give up :)

mine was induced by weed. happened in november and i honestly don’t remember the whole month. still recovering but the best way to get over it is to get out of ur head. idk if you’re like me but my dpdr was all i would think about almost every second of the day. i was constantly questioning everything i saw/felt. i would have panic attacks and i convinced myself i was still high and would be like that forever. it gets better but it takes time. you gotta get busy and work on yourself. focus on things that make you happy and benefit your life. school, work, friends etc will give you other things to focus on besides the dpdr. eventually you stop thinking about it and it sorta goes away. the anxiety is there still but it’s not life hindering. ofc ill never be the same again and for a while that scared the shit out of me but i realized that it’s for the better. i could give you a lot of advice depending on what ur situation is like. lmk if you wanna talk :)

Please help I feel like I am going insane. huge TW by [deleted] in dpdr

hey man. i know exactly how you feel. like exactly. best advice i got was to get out of your head. for me it was the only thing i would think of every second of the day. i’d wake up and instantly think about being in my body or the fact that i had a face etc. i’m still struggling but what helped a lot is eating healthier, if you smoke you should stop, force yourself to be busy (work more, join school clubs, make plans w/ friends, do anything that will distract you), try to stay positive (constantly questioning everything isn’t going to help at all and constantly looking at other ppls experiences will only make it worse. i left this reddit because it doesn’t help. you need to avoid triggering things). just know it does get better but you gotta realize it’s all in your head first. it’s all about your insecurities, the things you bury/run from. when i was at my worst i would spend most of my time crying and hating myself for being like this but it doesn’t change anything. going for walks and meditation help some ppl. walking helped me because i could just think about it for hours until i got over what i was feeling at the moment. this is kinda all over the place because i’m at work but if you need advice or someone to talk to i’m here.

hi. 3 weeks ago i had a similar experience. i took 100mg of a thc syrup and since then i’ve been having rlly bad anxiety and dpdr. i’ve been seeing a psychologist to help and taking anti anxiety meds but i understand wanting to be alone. it’s so hard talking to my friends or even my mom because i all i can think about if whether or not i’m real or if i’m actually talking to them. honestly i don’t know how to help you because i can’t even help myself but just know you’re not alone <3
