Understanding Depersonalization, Derealization & Dissociation
Feeling disconnected from yourself or the world around you can be frightening. Many people describe the experience as watching themselves from the outside, moving through life on autopilot, or feeling as though reality has lost its depth or meaning. Depersonalization, derealization, and dissociation are common trauma and anxiety responses, yet they are often misunderstood or minimized. If you are experiencing depersonalization, derealization, or dissociation, it is important to know that you are not broken and you are not going crazy.
