Can daydreaming be a symptom of dissociation and depersonalization. I used to have alot from loneliness and alot of trauma. It got so bad that after seeing something bad, I felt so disconnected from everything and then I zone out, and forget what happened in class.

I'm not afraid of my DPDR, I'm just so severe and it's so uncomfortable I literally can't ignore it. I had a milder version in the past that was easier to ignore and it became almost irrelevant, but now it's insanely severe and my body feels so deformed and I don't know how to get through it.

Its almost like another side effect of DPDR and as you explained it is like another part of protection. Sometimes, it just drives me almost crazy.

What are your thoughts on MDMA therapy?, I have endured lots and lots of trauma and prolonged stress for years on end. Since a young age, but I cannot access my pain that is inside of my soul. I have read great things about MDMA therapy being a great thing for CPTSD/PTSD. Which I definitely suffered from with DPD as a symptom. But I am way to scared to try anything like that. I am also to scared to try any medication, as I always feel worse. I have been suffering from DP/DR for more then 20 years on and off. It always changes, and everytime it does, I think theres something else wrong with me.

hi omar! ive had DPDR since i was 13, im 21 now. i started microdosing LSD on and off for about a year, now, and it has helped me heal IMMENSELY, way more than the antidepressants i was prescribed. i also macrodosed at the beginning of this year, which was wonderful. it is not a miracle treatment--it was just the thing that facilitated healing the most easily for me; it unlocked a lot of the trauma i carried and helped me process my experiences and patterns. i highly recommend psychedelics, but it requires a great knowledge of self, some research to see if the treatment and possible effects resonates with you and what you're looking for, and the innate ability to trust that you will be okay. i would start with microdosing a really good day (kzbin.info/www/bejne/foayiWmCeZ6kZs0), and james fadiman's talks on youtube. i read the psychedelic explorer's guide before i started microdosing and that was the most helpful piece of literature in my personal research. my experience with DPDR is that it is a coping mechanism for trauma, as you alluded to, so it grows as you go and your circumstances change. i hope this is helpful, and i'm interested in hearing your thoughts.
