Thank you for posting NC65! Interesting. I didn't know anything about depersonalization until your video and this article. I think I've experienced that but didn't know it had a name.

I'm glad I could help. It's quite a frightening experience, especially when it's hard to describe to the people closest to you, as I had a severe bout with it over the winter holidays.

It took me a while to find what I was experiencing after a lot of Googling "feeling detached and unreal". Especially as I didn't think (at first) it was in any way linked with my anxiety.

Thank you for posting this, I didn't read the whole thing YET but I did skim thru it and he really has a down to earth way of explaining it, so thank you for thinking of us and posting it. :)

No problem, Lisa. I like to think that by trying to help others here, it helps me too. :)

One last thing I should mention - because it gradually fades over time, you most likely won't even notice it's gone at first.

I had that realisation early yesterday evening. Go about your life as best you can and the safety blanket will sneak off while your back is turned.
