When you understand the internal processes of what's happening on a biological level, it no longer becomes scary, and you know how to stop it, even if scary thoughts accompany these feelings.
Imagine feeling like you're watching your life from the outside, detached from your own thoughts and surroundings. This is the daily reality for those grappling with depersonalization/derealization disorder (DPDR). In this episode of DPDR Recovery, host Will Winters dives deep into the mechanics of dissociation and the road to recovery. Dissociation acts as a shield against extreme stress, prolonged anxiety, or traumatic experiences, but it can also leave one feeling lost and disconnected.
Will breaks down the biological and psychological roots of this defense mechanism, offering a clear picture of what’s happening inside the mind during these episodes. He doesn’t stop there; practical advice is on hand too. From maintaining a healthy diet and getting enough sleep to avoiding stress triggers and harmful substances, Will covers it all. He highlights the significance of professional help and journaling as tools for managing symptoms.
With a focus on patience and confidence, Will encourages listeners to take control of their recovery journey. This episode isn't just for those experiencing DPDR but also for anyone curious about the disorder or supporting someone who is. Tune in to gain a deeper understanding and find practical steps to reclaim a sense of normalcy.
