I have depersonalisation disorder... I was diagnosed once, then another psychiatrist made me feel stupid for even suggesting this was my problem.
I remember saying to my first psychiatrist that the world didnt feel real, like I wasn't really in my body and the world felt like a dream... as soon as he said it sounds like depersonalisation disorder, I felt so happy that at least its a recognised problem.
It really, really distresses me. I've stayed in bed for days so I can sleep because my dreams most of the time feel more real than real life...
