Depersonalization disorder?

Question

All I ever hear about this continuous feeling of being separated from my own body is either "it goes away on it's own" or "see a psychiatrist". 
It's been over a year and a half and I just feel more and more like I'm fading away. I'm getting clumsy, knocking into things. I don't even realize what I'm eating sometimes and can't tell you what I did this morning, I didn't really notice. 
I'm afraid of a psychiatrist, or whatever mental doctors are called. I don't feel insane I just feel.. Well I feel like nothing, like I'm on another planet watching myself. I don't want medication and I don't see what doctor's can do for me. 

Does anybody have experience with this? I'm not even sure why I'm writing this here I just don't really know who to ask anymore.

depersonalization is caused by severe anxiety,drugs,neurological disorders and i think because of psychoprenia also so stop taking any kind of drugs if you are and go to a doctor and he will probably refer you to a psychologist and maybe even psychiatrists and maybe some meds not that its necessary but it might help try working on your anxiety with a counselor it might help and the doctor will most likely run some tests to see if its not physical i know how horrible this is ive been having this for 2 years now without any improvement and it dosnt go away on its own if you dont do anything about it good luck
