About this ebook
Feeling Unreal is the first book to reveal what depersonalization disorder is all about. This important volume explores not only depersonalization, but the philosophical and literary implications of selflessness as well, while providing the latest research, possible treatments, and strategies for living and thriving when life seems 'unreal.' For those who still believe that such experiences are still a part of something else, that depersonalization is just a symptom and not a disorder in its own right, Feeling Unreal presents compelling evidence to the contrary. This book provides long-awaited answers for people suffering from depersonalization disorder and their loved ones, for mental health professionals, and for all students of the condition, while serving as a wake up call to the medical community at large.

absolutely useless in terms of the ones suffering from depersonalization. just a compilation of some facts , books and the sufferers' stories. no approach to healing or whatever

Some typos, but that's not relevant to someone like me who'd given up entirely on thinking about this perpetual hazy and painful dream. Painful to live like this. It seems stimulants help others, too, so long as anxiety isn't a side effect. So caffeine can be hurtful. I did exposure therapy while on Adderall, inadvertently. My anxiety diminished a lot, permanently. So, too, did DPD.
