@happiness._.123 sorry for the late reply , i was busy ! , but what i did was try to forget about the topic and it relax . What also helped me is finding out that anxiety can’t cause sudden blindness or ever cause blindness 🙏

Then you would deal with it when or if it were to happen. There is no way to know for certain, and doing compulsions (like asking for reassurance, or simply even entertaining these “what if” questions), will not help you it will only contribute to your disorder and the vicious cycle you’re in. You may or may not go blind. Lean into that uncertainty and feel the fear without giving into your compulsions. It’s tough work but you are strong and you can do hard things. Feel the fear and continue moving towards you values anyway.

(HELP PLEASE) So my depersonalization/derealization has gotten so bad I’m actually scared for my life and I don’t know if I’m ever going to go back to normal I’m freaking out about it. I feel so unreal and vision is so blurry, I feel like I can go insane any second and that feeling is causing me so MUCH anxiety. I don’t know what to do anymore guys, this is a HORRIBLE theme I’m having because it’s not just mental, it’s physical, I feel so many ugly symptoms because of the derealization! Help someone please!
