Does anyone else have depersonalization/ derealization? Please read details?

Question

Ok so I have depersonalization/ derealization and I’ve had it for 10 years now and it hasn’t gotten any better. It’s just been the same for all this time and I can’t figure out how to make it go away :( and I hate it. I’ve seen a Psychiatrist and of course I was put in medication and it helped a little bit but not completely and I hate taking pills for anything. I really want this to go away and I would like answers from someone that has dealt with this before.

I dealt with that for a number of years.  For me, it was due to extreme anxiety and the circumstances in my life at that time.

If you have lived with extreme stress, it may be a form of dissociation.  A counselor can help you bring the things you are suppressing or don't want to think about to the surface. When you do that and deal directly with the things that stressed you, you will become more grounded in day to day life.
