Response to Lilly Singh
Upper middle-class-white people and upper-middle-class Indian people can finally get along. After discovering Lilly Singh and her insightful comedy about her daily strife and oppression I finally understand this horrific struggle. No one can speak with the voice and the intonation of strong American Black Women like an annoying Canadian Indian woman.

I made a big mistake by constantly researching DPDR when I first had the disorder. After a while, I learned how important it is to change your narrative ( the story you tell yourself about the disorder). If you ONLY read the success stories you will eventually change the narrative in your own mind and you will be surprised how much it helps you overcome Depersonalization Derealization Disorder.

I did 40min of Zazen Meditation at least every other day. This changed my way of thinking and was incredibly helpful. Changing my environment through travel was helpful. I do a lot of open cold water swimming now (every other day). I am convinced that you can reprogram your hypothalamus and your sympathetic nervous system through this exercise like Wim Hof. I think it has something to do with the Mammalian Diving Reflex. Hope this helps, and please contact me again if you need to talk. BTW: None of this was easy at all.

I'd say I'm probably 98% better, when I get stressed or especially very overwhelmed I get a very very minor very brief episode. I think lots more than 2% of population suffer from this in silence.

    • @mikeythesoothsayer8242

      I did not have DPDR during a quarantine. I can only tell you from my own experience. I had this from mid-June 2016 and it faded out in December and January of that year. I went through many different stages with it and depression was certainly one of them. I had a strange scared depressed type of feeling, especially toward the end. The only time I took a drug was a Benzo on Thanksgiving of 2016 and I was really depressed. If you read the Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle I had the same "Dark Night of the Soul" experience that he describes around five times. I do not think that I became happier just because of DPDR. I think that I was able to change my thought process through Zazen meditation and that was a big part of coming out of the DPDR. This change in thought process was VERY challenging, and I don't feel like I would have been able to improve myself if the DPDR, anxiety, and depression were not pushing me toward improvement. Basically, depression, anxiety, and DPDR gave me no other choice. I had to take care of my daughter so it was a tough situation. If I had it right now I would do cardio exercise (VERY VERY HARD). I would also start with Zazen. I was horrible at Zazen when I started, but I kept at it and eventually I meditated about 45 minutes every night. These are the videos that I watched.

      I can not tell if I was forgetting things. I remember that I often felt panic if I could not remember something. I might have been obsessing about this rather than really not remembering. I felt like I was outside of myself during this time. I felt like my life was a TV show and I was the audience on the other side of the screen. My only real relationship was with my wife and daughter. My wife did not leave me so that was good. I did feel emotionally detached from people and scared but I also wanted to talk about my problems a lot.

I used exercise and clean living to fight it. It was a very difficult fight.
