Anxiety feeds on itself. I would think too, that the anxiety and depersonalization would too, especially perhaps at your age. I started therapy in college when I was 20 because of anxiety over changes in my life (growing up, going out in the world, being an adult and having to live my own life/be responsible for myself) and it got a lot worse in my mid-20's before it got better (in my 30's).
Did she get depersonalization from it? How long did it take to go away? A lot of people seem to have bad experiences on the drug, but not many seem to have it months later like me and get unreal feelings from it.
