Question about "Depersonalization"

[panicfree]

Hi everyone! I have a question about something called depersonalization! I read what the symptoms of it was and I'm trying to decide if I have it or not. I have been feeling kind of "out of it" lately and I don't know if it is just something that I am making up in my head, or if it's real! I heard about this condition and I thought this might be what I have! I think I might be desperate to label how I am feeling but I am also trying to figure out if I am just making it all up in my head. I hope this doesn't sound crazy to anyone.
Has anyone ever felt this way? And if you have depersonalization, would you know it? Has anyone ever had it before?? Thanks for your help!

I am so sorry! But I am not really sure if that's what I have.... Could you describe the symptoms that you have?

it's hard to explain. i simply tell pppl i feel invisible, haha. or out of this world, like a ghost? i get that spacy feeling 24/7 ): i'm just starting this program, and they said that it will get rid of it, so i'm hoping for the best

I had never really heard of it before either, but from the way you explained it, Yes I also have felt this way very often. I think the more you work the program the less you will feel this way!!

I think so too! Sorry i'm not much help! ):

I have also felt the same way that you have, but I don't know how to label it.
I have never heard of it being called Depersonalization. I don't have a diagnosis
for you, but I can tell you that if you are working on the program that should help
you out. I am working on the program for the second time around, this time with
more vigor and concentration ( hopefully ! ). I am on Session Four. Keep writing
with your questions and experiences and we will try to help you out. We will
be here for you.
