Depersonalization Disorder Depersonalization Disorder Persistent or recurrent feelings of being detached from one's body or mental processes and usually a feeling of being an outside observer of one's life. Depersonalization is the third most common psychiatric symptom and frequently occurs in life-threatening danger, such as accidents, assaults, and serious illnesses and injuries; it can occur as a symptom in many other psychiatric disorders and in seizure disorders. As a separate disorder, depersonalization has not been studied widely, and its incidence and cause are unknown. Symptoms and Diagnosis Patients have a distorted perception of themselves, their bodies, and their lives, which makes them uncomfortable. A person may feel as if he is an automaton or is in a dream. Often the symptoms are transient and occur with anxiety, panic, or phobic symptoms. However, symptoms can be chronic and persist or recur for many years. Patients often have great difficulty describing their symptoms and may fear or believe the symptoms mean they are going crazy. The patient often feels unreal and may experience the world as unreal and dreamlike. Some patients are minimally impaired; others become severely compromised or even disabled. Although some can adjust to depersonalization disorder or even block its effect, others have chronic anxiety about their state of mind, worry whether they are going crazy, or ruminate on the implications of their distorted perceptions of their bodies and their sense of estrangement from themselves and the world.

What drugs have you found to be most effective in treating depersonalization disorder? I have tried SSRIs, antidepressants and other medications as well. I have had this for three years straight as a result of stress, anxiety and panic disorder. A. Depersonalization disorder, in brief, involves the persistent or recurrent experience of feeling detached from, and as if one is an outside observer of, one's mental processes or body. Individuals with DD often report feeling as if in a waking dream or a movie and may also experience derealization (the sense that the external world is unreal or strange). DD is not a psychotic condition, though individuals with DD often worry about this. Unfortunately, there is very little rigorously designed research on the pharmacologic treatment of depersonalization disorder (DD). However, I would first like to suggest that the diagnosis of DD is in serious doubt, if you experience depersonalization only in the context of actual panic attacks or panic disorder (PD), since depersonalization/derealization is one feature of PD. Indeed, DD by itself is quite rare. Usually, PD is also accompanied by other bodily sensations, such as rapid heart rate, dizziness, sweating, tingling, choking sensation, as well as a fear of going crazy or having a heart attack.

   Extractions: What you don't know at the moment is that this troubling experience is distinctly human, experienced briefly at some time or another by as much as 70 percent of the population. In its chronic form, popular culture once saw it as part of a nervous breakdown. Some have called it "Alice in Wonderland" disease. Jean Paul Sartre called it "the filth" , William James dubbed it "the sick soul". It's been linked philosophically to existentialism, even Buddhism. Yet to its victims, it's anything but an enlightened state of mind. Welcome to the world of Depersonalization Disorder The term itself has been around for a long time. A psychologist named Dugas coined it as a unique medical condition back in 1898. While the word "depersonalization" is often linked to "dehumanizing" situations such as prison life or brainwashing, chronic depersonalization is an insidious mental condition that can begin on its own. The individual's perceptions of the self and the self's place in the world somehow shifts into a mindset that is altered from the norm, becoming hellish for most. Depersonalization, as a symptom, is what the majority of us experience at some time in our lives. It occurs briefly, and has no lasting effect. Depersonalization Disorder, however, is a chronic illness that can take a dreadful and long-lasting course.

Dissociative Disorders Topics [General] Dissociative Amnesia Dissociative Fugue Dissociative Identity Disorder ... Depersonalization Disorder [General] Dissociative disorders: Failure to integrate one's memories, perceptions, identity, or consciousness normally. Everyone occasionally experiences dissociation without its being disruptive. For example, a person may drive somewhere and then realize that he does not remember many aspects of the drive because of preoccupation with personal concerns, a program on the radio, or conversation with a passenger. Perception of pain may become dissociated under hypnosis. However, other forms of dissociation disrupt a person's sense of self and the recollection of life events. When memory is poorly integrated, dissociative amnesia occurs. When identity is fragmented along with memory, dissociative fugue or dissociative identity disorder occurs. When the experience and perception of self are disrupted, depersonalization disorder occurs.
