I had thoughts of me waking up in an alternate reality, waking up in some other world and thoughts like I was not real, nothing surrounding me was real, etc. Thoughts like these are really scary and they instantly cause a panic attack. For some days, I was afraid of sleeping because I thought I was about to wake up in some other reality. But then, one day I snapped out of DP/DR. After haunting me for a long, long time it went away. Now, I just laugh at the insane thoughts that I faced. Cheers mate 👍

@@RealSwamyG due to the current state of anxiety and derealization, I instilled in myself such a worldview based on existential thoughts that all human activity in life is built on the secretion of certain hormones (or brain biochemistry, the essence is the same), so more and more I do not see the point in human relationships, in art, study, career, travel, yes and throughout life, because all this in the context of such thoughts is fake, ephemeral. Because of this, I experience a terrible depression, and it seems that I will never be able to be as happy as before. That this stupid "philosophy of nihilism" will become entrenched in my personality, and either I have to somehow morally come to terms with it, or I simply cannot do it, driving myself into an even stronger depression, and as a result - suicide. I already can hardly believe that these existential thoughts can let you go along with the anxiety and derealization, as other popularizers of the topic claim. This brings terrible moral torment. Still, other people in this state, it seems to me, at least hold on to something in their life, but I fell into such a pit, from which I see less and less a way out, and after all, only 3 months have passed since everything started. I feel wild guilt from all this, because if it were not for the smoked "joint", then I would be a happy person. Now I think that on the basis of such a destructive worldview for me and the whole condition in general, my life is ruined, because in the past I did not adhere to such a way of thinking, and it seems that this will be fixed in my new, not so good personality. Did we have something? What should I do in this case? And also, a often think about existencial thoughts like: "What is the meaning of the art of creativity? What does this activity give people?" You know, many people advise to be distracted by movies, TV shows, music, and so on, in order to shift your focus from monitoring your condition. But because of such thoughts, it is extremely difficult to do it. And, in principle, I no longer seem to understand how human society works. It seems that I am superfluous in it, but at the same time I think philosophically in the context that "everything is clear to me, and there is nothing else to do in this world." This is terrible.

Hey Swamy; I've got DP/DR 2 months ago. And I've watched a lot of videos about this sickness. Read a lot of articles. And you my friend, you saved me from that pithole. You there. I'm talking to you. You are going it now, you are depersonalized and you are reading this comment. Don't be bothered with the people that talking like ''I've got it like 20 years.'' I was so stressed with those comments i actually cried infront of computer. I stopped eating, i can't go to work or get out cause i'm too afraid of that i'm going to make mistakes, i was so foggy i even can't talk with my friends sometimes. Swamy is right. Accept it. That's the only solution. I know this seems very weird. You guys are mad at me cause ''how can i accept it? it's consuming.'' I know. But that's the only way. Most helpful videos about my DP/DR story was how to accept your intrusive thoughts and overcoming dp fears. Stop asking yourself or checking yourself. It will pass. I promise. I've recovered %100 . I'm not saying %95. %100. Thank you Swamy. I've recovered with you.

Thank you for the comment, seriously, I had a first panic attack ever 5 months ago, and I’ve been dealing with anxiety ever since, derealization was bugging me but I was so busy handling the other symptoms that I didn’t pay so much attention to it. The anxiety level dropped dramatically, but the DP arose as the last symptom, and I started being really afraid of it and when people say that they experience it for more than 2yrs freaks me out BIG TIME. Swamy and other coaches on this are helping me a lot, so is the recovery stories and hope provided by that.

My thoughts almost exactly, DP fell out of the sky on the night of December 2nd last year for me, my life hadnt been going that well for a few years prior and I understood it as a wake up call. Im glad I discovered the youtube channels that discuss this. My fears included (im on the downward part of this now but not out of it yet) Solipsism, that everybody I had ever cared about was imaginery, fear that I was in a matrix like existence and that maybe I existed in a world outside the realm of god and god couldnt hear me or knew i existed and i would have to suffer in silence. I also would go to be every night for about a aweek feeling like I was going to wake up somewhere else, in a field, on the street, or in another universe, thankfully this fully passed. Recently I experienced a small spike in this feelings and they can basically be boiled down to the following, fear that I cant trust my sense or cognition and fear that ill be eternally separted from those I care about (or anybody is seperted from who they care about). I watched one of your videos earlier today and your description of being "bewildered by reality" is spot on, thats just what it is, its like this feeling of JAMAISE VU, that I cant shake, what is all this stuff, what is this sound coming out of my mouth, what is color shape dimension proportion space time etc, what does it mean to exist? Im on the downward, I will make it, AS WILL ALL OF YOU, REALITY IS NOT SCARY, IT IS GOOD, we all already know this, we just have to accept it.

Accepting who I am has been one of the greatest realizations in life and has structured my life in a way where I now strive to be the best person I can be instead of settings false & irrational expectations, ultimately setting myself up for failure. I now ask questions (however dumb) when I don't understand something and seek clarity instead of pretending to know something I don't. I finally feel comfortable knowing I'm not always the smartest guy in the room. My deepest fear was not being able to meet the expectations I personified to the world but now my deepest fear is not pushing myself to become the best *I* can be. Well, that or heights. :P

Samantha Cooper I’m going through this now. In fact I’ve watched this vid multiple times, it’s torture to live as I’m so aware of my own existence and mortality. A lot of this comes from the fact that my brother died a few years ago when I was 10-I need to process that trauma, and I’ve reached out for help in order to do so. And hopefully, through bereavement counselling and other possible therapies, I can forget being hyper aware of existing, and the obsessional instructive thoughts-especially the existential, solipsistic ones-will go once I find happiness and meaning in life once again. It’s made me super depressed, but I wanna live man. I’ve had literally every fear he’s mentioned here, I’m still dealing with it, but like he says they’ll slowly lose their power over me once I process my childhood traumas.

i can completely understand these dissociative symptoms as in the beginning i had them too, when i used to walk my brain asked why you walked? When i talked my brain again said why you talked? My brain also thought that this body doesn't belong to me, and the most weirdest thought that keeps coming in was "why the hell i can't see myself" except in mirror.and then same thing i felt like i am behind my eyes, seeing was not same as before, i knew somewhere that it is the same world like before but never seemed one. I felt as if my eyes were like a camera,some gaming app's front screen. Through which i can see so many things, i saw every detail at home at roads,and keep thinking like how the hell i can see so much??? But wait!! I always see things like that before too its same so why its kind of weird to me now? Finally It took me one year to understand that it's a kind of thought that keeps coming in i have to just let it go, if it is there then its ok let it be,just ignore and do your normal work. Whole year took me to understand that it was all in mind nothing was real. I know it is scary at the beginning. But as time passes it will heal. I am sure my buddy have faith in you.

Because of this, I experience a terrible depression, and it seems that I will never be able to be as happy as before. That this stupid "philosophy of nihilism" will become entrenched in my personality, and either I have to somehow morally come to terms with it, or I simply cannot do it, driving myself into an even stronger depression, and as a result - suicide. I already can hardly believe that these existential thoughts can let you go along with the anxiety and derealization, as other popularizers of the topic claim. This brings terrible moral torment. Still, other people in this state, it seems to me, at least hold on to something in their life, but I fell into such a pit, from which I see less and less a way out, and after all, only 3 months have passed since everything started. I feel wild guilt from all this, because if it were not for the smoked "joint", then I would be a happy person. Now I think that on the basis of such a destructive worldview for me and the whole condition in general, my life is ruined, because in the past I did not adhere to such a way of thinking, and it seems that this will be fixed in my new, not so good personality. Did we have something? What should I do in this case? And also, a often think about existencial thoughts like: "What is the meaning of the art of creativity? What does this activity give people?" You know, many people advise to be distracted by movies, TV shows, music, and so on, in order to shift your focus from monitoring your condition. But because of such thoughts, it is extremely difficult to do it. And, in principle, I no longer seem to understand how human society works. It seems that I am superfluous in it, but at the same time I think philosophically in the context that "everything is clear to me, and there is nothing else to do in this world." This is terrible.

He argues that for the most part, these various kinds of existential and philosophical questions arise from a lack of feelings and emotions. There is no feedback from life events, do you understand? And this state, no matter how we analyze it from a scientific point of view, still seems to us very diverse in its specifics, and such questions arise from this.

Hey Swamy thanks for your videos :) They help a lot. So I wanted to ask if someone else has had this: apart from the feelings of dp dr and irrational fears such as 'life doesn't feel real, im in another dimension, what if i stop existing...' I also have a super big fear of not being able to connect with my memories and being scared of time. Like, I question myself constantly what the meaning of 'future', 'past' and 'present' mean and I feel like I am trapped in the present. In an irreal present. I mean, I can remember everything and I can talk about the future but everytime I think about what I'm going to do or a memory comes to my mind, I feel scared cause I can't understand the meaning and nature of time. What if time stops suddenly? Also, it actually doesn't exist cause we made it up... idk I am aware of how crazy this can sound but it scares the shit ut of me. Is this an existential thought? Thanks :)

@@ashleyriosrizo i'm great :) it's been a journey but don't worry, even though they seem like 'crazy thoughts', i learnt that they're just thoughts. If your going through this, I know it sucks but keep this in mind: it's just your head going on panic mode. In the end, none of this matters, it's just a lot of anxiety. But the same way you got yourself there, you will undo the knot in your head. You just need time, patience and stop looking for answers cause YOU ARE OKAY. YOU'RE JUST SCARED OF EVERYTHING. Anxiety is not something static, it changes and the more your body gets used to that feeling of fear, the more it understand there's actually nothing to be afraid of. Don't look for answers, but look for a therapist for example, someone you can trust and talk about these thoughts that bother you. You've had quiet and happy moments innyour life and I assure you first hand that you will have them again. You're just afraid of life cause it's your brain thinking you're in danger when you're actually not at all. But you have to learn it the hard way: by being scared and accepting that you'll have to keep having this veery uncomfortable feeling for a bit of time until your brain learns that it's actually a bunch of irrational thoughts. Trust me, you'll be okay. Just stop looking for answers cause actually everyone has these same questions about time and life... But they only bother u cause you're scared and anxiety has taken over. But you'll get better

@@marial3301 hey so I was obsessed with recovery at that time and do you know what actually helped me? Not wanting to recover. Instead, with a bit of help and a lot of patience, I learnt to live with those questions. It was damn hard because for me, these thoughts meant i was losing my mind and that meant something terrible would happen. But that was the way: showing yourself that yeah, anything can happen and maybe i lose my mind. And while i lived with that fear, i made my body feel all those uncomfortable sensations and thoughts. You will find your peace but maybe you'll first need to lose your fear and even though it's a tough process, it's a training for your mind and you'll definitely become waaaay stronger and happier once you learn how you feel fear and the tricks that your mind plays on you. You'll get better I know it, cause I am ♥️ asking yourself if you'll ever get better seems like a reasonable question for your agitated mind right now, but it's the same as asking yourself 'will i ever get better?" after a break up. You don't know, but you probably know that you will, since most people do. And also that's not the point. The point is that you listen to your body to understand yourself better and grow into the wonderful person you're about to be rn. Way less scared and way braver than who u are now 🔥 listen to your body, understand that it's just scared. The little kid within you is asking for help for some reason and it's the time in your life that you need to start paying attention to yourself and learn to live with fear for a bit cause that's what ur body needs rn.

Hi Swamy! You have great content. I was just wondering what your take on medication for DPDR is? I know there’s no specific medication that’s supposed to treat this condition but anxiety and depression are closely tied to it, at least with my experience. Since I’ve been taking an SNRI, an atypical antipsychotic and beta blocker..my symptoms have not been as severe and I’ve been able to eat again, sleep more and not wake up each morning shaking in fear. I feel like medication has been what has helped me to think a bit more logically in order to recover. I really did not want to start medication but I felt like I was going to die from not eating or sleeping enough :( not to mention, I was suicidal each day as well which has subsided quite a bit as well. Did you take any medication during your recovery? Just curious. Thanks.
@RealSwamyG4 жыл бұрын
Medication is fine. Especially in some cases, meds can be a boon. But my understanding is that medication doesn't treat the underlying root cause. It only helps you not feel the symptoms anymore. This is good if you are feeling super overwhelmed that you are non-functional. But the problem I think is that meds after a while stand in the way of recovery. I believe you recover by letting yourself feel these feelings. This is why I never took any medication. Anyway, this is just my opinion and not professional medical advice.

Plus I was crying and freaking out all the time and barely able to function at all. Have you heard of people recovering despite being on medication? I’m worried I won’t be able to get better because of the fact that I’m on medicine but I don’t know how else to survive right now. Also, the medicine hasn’t taken away my DP symptoms, it’s just made them less severe/debilitating.

You're enjoying life, feeling like you understand that this thought or possibility is impossible, but then the thought comes up "...but what if? If this is all a dream world or a simulation or whatever, does nothing matter? My loved ones, my work, and accomplishments, nothing matters if this isn't reality." And so on. Break this cycle. I can assure you right now that you're not in some other reality or simulation or any of that. You're not some brain hooked up to a machine that is generating world for you. The people around you aren't robots. Notice how all of these thoughts came once you heard about them and thought about them. They weren't always in your head, but now it's "totally real and impossible to prove wrong." No, my friend. It's DPDR or Existential OCD or something along those lines that is messing with your thoughts. But it's okay. I'm going through the same sort of thought cycle now when I thought I had finally been done with these thoughts over 2 months ago. If you want the thoughts to be true, they will seem true. If you believe they aren't, then they aren't. And no I'm not also a figment of your imagination or something along those lines, I'm a human typing this out to you since you suffer from the same thing I suffer from. But it's okay, because now I'm recovering, and you can recover as well. I'll be back in a few months fully recovered. Bye :)

@@samanthacooper9398 yeah, I get what you mean. It's like you're stuck in the middle, and it can cause a lot of anxiety when there's always that possibility in your mind. Personally, I don't believe that it's possible for that to happen, and I can't believe I was stuck in that thought loop. Basically, why would some scientist want to create you? Let's set a baseline first. This world that the scientist is in, must be very similar to your world, because of the law of similarity (which I call it). Because, just like how you can't think of a new number or colour, a person from another world can't just randomly think of another world with different physics and reality entirely. So they must be a future human. Okay, but why would a future human make some human think they are in the past, a time where no humans could possibly do something like this (we don't even know how the brain works very well yet, and simulating conciousness may be impossible). Well, in truth, there is no real reason why this would happen. Unless of course, your conciousness is a "back to the past" theme, but we're literally in the most boring time compared to that civilization. We're not close enough to their tech, and we're far from the early days of humans. Also, I don't think it's possible to trick the brain into thinking it's a different reality entirely. I'm a firm believer in that, there absolutely must be a reality to expietence, for you to actually experience it. Also, if you're someone who believes in God, why would God allow these types of worlds to happen in the first place? God would want you to be present in base reality. Even if you don't believe in God, just really think for a second which is more probable. You're in base reality, where conciousness is the one mystery, and there are others just like you that you've known your entire life. Or, some scientist created you for whatever reason, which is probably illegal in that world because humans care for other humans and there would be laws against created concious beings, but you didn't know about it until you got DPDR or something along those lines. And don't even get me started about the computer simulation garbage. How do you create another simulation within a simulation, if the only people experiencing the simulation are in the simulation? Come on... please don't listen to those things. Perhaps I can't compell you with just this one comment, but imagine a future human race. Why would anyone create you in this exact situation. Soon you'll realize, the universe was meant to be this way.

I've been having this for 9 days now. It all started with the great panic attack of October 9th, one day before I would go to my new university after I dropped out of my other one. My experience has been hell, especially the first days. You feel like reality as whole is gonna split open any second now and you will face nothingness, god or whatever in the eye and you're not gonna like what you see. It feels like you are gonna drop dead any moment now. I always ask what the fuck are humans, what is humanity, what the fuck is what I'm seeing right now? And when I can't answer my head hurts and I can't concentrate on anything. I've been like that 24/7 for the past 8 days. I've seen some improvement in the form of starting to get annoyed at it rather than scared. I catch myself saying things like "come on then show me the thing I'm most afraid of" or "CONSUME ME IF YOU CAN"... I can't even remember what it means to be normal anymore. I just hope that I can get through this as soon as possible and I forget how it even was... I just want to be like I was before.

@@DanielMartinez-hr2zu That's so true man. The day I say "Holy shit I have not thought about DPDR in a while and I feel normal" I'll probably appreciate every morning I wake up and not feel like I'm losing my mind also I will set goals and actually do everything in my power to accomplish them. Generally I think that after this hell is over you probably don't fear anything anymore.

I had a full blown panic attack bc I was with friends and my bf one night and a friend said « we had a crazy week damn » and I tried to remember my week and especially the day before and I couldn’t so I started to think « what if I have DID ?? » so I asked my bf « what did we do yesterday ? » and he looked at me and said « um idk I don’t remember » (like a normal fucking human being lmao) and I started freaking out bc my anxiety told me « ok your bf doesn’t exist, he is in your head so he can’t remember yesterday too » and I told my anxiety « no ! He exists our friends see him! » and my anxiety respond « they might not exist either ! » and I started to panick, next thing I knew, I was sleeping in the psychward for a night lmao

Notice how you brush aside your fear of solipsism by making up an emotion that seemed others are separate from you and feeling which is what you were doing before the fear began. Its a cope

I know this sounds funny, but is it normal if you have DP/DR to watch this and feel like you aren’t real even though I know you are?

Yes. I feel like this video isn’t real and I just made it up in my mind to convince myself derealization is real.

@@teresawhiteindependentscen4238 I’m glad I’m not the only one who feels that way. Mine is now coming and going. Before it was constant, so that’s a good sign at least. I know everything goes around me is obviously real, it’s just a feeling and feelings aren’t facts 💯

@@Stones309 I’m so sorry that you have experienced suicidal thoughts. DP/DR has a way of totally controlling your life and making it feel so horrible. Do you still feel that way? I was at that point a few times myself.
