I've had DPDR since age 16..I'm now 54. It caused me to have panic attacks and agoraphobia...I did a billion therapies, counseling, etc..trying to get to the bottom of it. There was definitely stress and trauma when it started...I analyzed and did EMDR , inner child therapy, and probably have had 10 therapists over the years ...I had to learn to live with it...period. I got super awesome at living with it until perimenopause and loss...deaths..pandemic isolation....The intensity increased, and my ability to be chill with DPDR lessened....The last few years have been super hard....but I did find Drew's podcast, and found a great anxiety specialist that have similar ideas to Drew and also the DARE ideas....It's still super rough but I can do more and let go more...Will I have DPDR forever? Maybe...Will it be on high alert all the time, probably not....We will see....

[@chrissylap]

Mine has gone away but learning not to fear it when it arises and working on creating more safety within my nervous system

[@rossgh76]

Thank you so much for this podcast. It boils down to TRUSTING the process and trusting that things will work out. Trust it will work out.

Drew. Wow small world !!! Yahoo

That “slipping away” sensation he talks about is one that I’ve experienced over and over. It’s pretty weird and you do think you’re slipping away.

[@julies570]

What about if uou also have trauma such as cptsd? Does that change anything about this proscription tp deal with anxiety?

[@DisobedientSpaceWhale]

40:52 so DARE is no good for worry over things?

[@jf8461]

What about if you feel a general (sometimes strong) “background” tension or anxiety (with a mix of depression) that just lingers. What do I “run towards”? I try to just have a “normal day” despite the discomfort. Is that the correct thing to do??

[@travisn346]

You can't be depressed and anxious. They are physiologically and neurologically unrelated. If you are anxious, you are capable of producing intense emotional responses and risk assessments. What you're experiencing is low mood, not clinical depression.

[@catherinerhodes64]

I have that feeling where "I have to get to the ground" was really weird the other night, I was having a panic attack when I was leaning over the sofa, next thing I know I'm laying on the floor 🤔🤔🤔 honestly don't remember getting on the floor this time haha

[@Sirie7206]

Haha!

[@nothingmatters6530]

I have no fear of symption but I feel pain and pain only. I feel tension all over the body where I have no control. Sometimes I am unable to withstand such pain. Why physical tension is so much even though I do not fear the symptiom?

[@jf8461]

Sounds a lot like I am feeling too.

[@Sirie7206]

Because Anxiety magnifies everything.

[@jf8461]

@@Sirie7206 I have found that to be absolutely true. And it is good to know.

[@Sirie7206]

@@jf8461 I’ve never had heartburn in my life, or maybe I did but never felt the burning. With Anxiety I’ve felt the burning. It’s so intense. I also feel like my acid reflux is worse. But it’s because I have anxiety. Otherwise I wouldn’t notice it.

[@annaberg1200]

Can you please make more shorter clips on how to reduce stress and anxiety? It gets too long to listen to when the brain isn't around.

[@jasond626]

Sorry not watching.. this format doesn't work on KZbin.. it's a podcast on a video channel/app.

[@nierhana]

this is exactly what I have too,, from everything I've seen the dare approach applies to feelings like this as well, so the aim is to notice and let it be without trying to figure it out or add second fear to it (simple but not easy) and engage with something. the 'run toward' step I think is better for adrenaline rushes as you can reframe it as excitement, but with this background feeling its best to approach it as said above, and over time it becomes less intense and less important. Id say it's similar to free floating anxiety so I recommend reading about that and the knowledge might help it to become less of a mystery/less scary. hope this helps and that we can make progress with it~

[@larakay9783]

Same it's called anxio-depressive, it's anxiety and depression in the same time and u have 2 things to deal with
