The key to dealing with depersonalisation is accepting it and trying to go about your life regardless of it. When I suffer most from it, I try to just see the symptoms as 'neutral' rather than 'bad', like it's just an alternative way of feeling temporarily. The more I have accepted it being there, the less I've noticed it being there, and it often just fades away.
I have this , this is why I don’t leave my house
I do a lot of grounding techniques to get myself back in the moment and feel less scared
The 5 senses activity, so identifying 5 things you can see, 4 you can touch, 3 you can hear, 2 you can smell and 1 you can smell. This helps me feel more grounded and present. Also I find colouring in helpful too because it’s doing something physical where a part of your body is touching something external and you have to focus on getting in the lines. Hope this helps!
