As anyone had really bad depersonalisation With Lyme, it's on my mind 24/7 from the minute I wake up till I go to bed, it's really making me more depressed as I can't think of any thing else an I'm always cheaking in to see how I feel. If anyone as had this can you tell me if it disapears when you start feeling better, also when I can finally fall to sleep I'm waking up having really bad panic attacks an am thinking about them as well sad

Yes, I experienced that and other psychological problems. It has gone away with treatment and I am left with no discernible problems.

A lot of people use anti-depressants, either prescription or natural to help them with the mental issues while they are getting better.

Hope you feel better. :-)

I always thought depersonalization was when one goes out of one's body, like there is a separation. This has happened a couple of times mi guess is its due to the low b/p i have.

I refuse to let mi mind dwell on illness (LOL here I am on board) No i really do control those thoughts.

in fact i cured myself once (unless it was coincidental) by only using positive affirmations and visualiozations. i am well. i am well I am well I feel great. I feel terrific (i did this all of the time whether i felt like i was dying or not

As grace said though there are an awful lot of little mental illnesses that come and go with this beautiful disease, ocd, bipolar, depression anxiety rage to name a few.

I hope u feel better and gain some peace, if u are on treatment this should let up. And I really believe in tricking the unconscious, it sounds crazy but it works or it helps!!

both of those happened with me when I was sick with Lyme and both went away when I got better. I used to say I lost my spirit. Like I was an empty shell and I was no longer inside. It was all just from the lyme and it all got better.

Hang in there. It's another tough part of dealing with this illness, but it isn't permanent.

`Depersonalisation Syndrome`


Hi ... I live in the uk and have suffered deprsonalisation syndrome for over twenty years. Often DP comes with depression or another mental illness, sometimes it comes completely alone. Drugs can cause DP, both prescribed and by`recreational drugs`. I have read of cases where people have woken up in the morning with DP... For absolutely no apparent reason!

In my case I have been greatly helped with the medication they call Phenelzine. This is one of the older type anti-depressants but really does help 95% with my DP. This drug gave me my life back. Taking Phenelzine makes the body use up all it`s B6 reserves, so I have to take a supplement with Phenelzine for it to work properly. Without the B6 you can get many unpleasant side effects both physical and mental. I also take milk thistle herb to protect my liver from taking Phenelzine. This combination has helped me enormously.

Hope my input here helps you or another ...
