What Is Depersonalization?

what is depersonalization now it's quite

possible that you've experienced this

but never really knew what it was called

you might have encountered

depersonalization if you've ever felt

disconnected from yourself seeing

yourself from an outside perspective a

bit like watching yourself in a movie

and you might have felt like your body

strangely wasn't your own so for example

you look in the mirror but you don't

recognize yourself and you can also feel

disconnected from your thoughts and

emotions and start to feel numb it can

even seem like time is moving too fast

or too slow now experiencing this

occasionally Is Not Unusual in fact at

some point around half of us do and it

can be brought on by periods of high

stress sleep deprivation certain drugs

or medication it can be more persistent

when it's linked to Early Childhood

trauma as the brain develops a way of

responding to threat that may have

helped you back then but makes life more

difficult now the time to seek help is

when it's frequent and long lasting or

when you're struggling to work out

whether those detached experiences are

real or not have you ever experienced

this let me know in the comments
