Has derealization affected your vision? Looking for advice on this.

Yes, I feel like I really have to sit with this one and let it pass. It was very very frightening at first but once I learned to not be afraid of it it got better.

Yes. I get derealization and depersonalization. Derealization seems like things are farther/closer or bigger/smaller. It's a scary experience! Derealization is triggered by trauma or severe anxiety/stress. Your brain uses derealization as a coping mechanism to prevent you from whatever your subconscious is trying to suppress. For really bad and long episodes I take benzos. HOWEVER, I do NOT recommend them because they are extremely addictive and that's a whole new problem to have. For mild and short episodes, I use grounding exercises that focus me on the present.

Yeah i disconnect from life a lot lol if it bothers me i remind myself that its temporary. It does suck that itll get between my work bc its harder to listen and process things people tell me 💀 if thats the case ill be honest about what im going through and ill be given a break to ground myself thankfully. Ik there are people in workplaces that do not care about your mental wellbeing so im grateful i didnt have that experience at my previous employer.

Yeah I've been there. Happened at the theater last night during cocaine bear. Kinda rough but it passed and I felt better after
