There are no real treatment for dissociation, derealization and deperlization at one point you have to accept that this won't go away.

I have tried everything to stay positive and imagine that my derealization would go away someday, but that day isn't coming. You can ask your doctors and they'll tell you that there are no treatment for any of the three illness I listed above.

I would like to hear some feedback from the people who are suffering from this on how you learn to accept this or how you won't accept it.

Thank you , peace & love
Sorry to disagree with you but those things can be treated and does go away. it all depends upon the reason behind it..

example

if the reason behind dissociation, derealization and depersonalization beyond the normal levels is happening because of depression doctors and psychiatrists prescribe antidepressants..

if the reason behind those three is because of anxiety antidepressants/antianxiety medications will make it go away

if the reason behind it is because of psychosis that comes with having bipolar disorder, schizophrenia or other mental disorders where the psychotic symptoms are creating the dissociative symptoms then anti psychotics will solve the dissociative issues..

if sleep deprivation is causing the dissociative symptoms getting enough sleep will solve the dissociation, derealization, depersonalization problems..

if not getting enough food or eating a poor diet is causing the derealization, depersonalization, and dissociation problems then a change in diet and eating enough food will take care take away the derealization, depersonalization and dissociation...

if medication is the reason behind those disorders then a change of medications / medication adjustments will remove those problems..

my list goes on..

it all depends on why the dissociation, depersonalization and derealization is there. it may take some time to get the right treatment but there is treatment for them. and a person can live without those problems.

when ever I have dissociation, depersonalization and derealization problems I do consult my treatment providers and we discover what the reason is behind it and treat it then I can and do live dissociation, depersonalization and derealization free.

by the way having a positive out look does help any mental disorder or physical health problems. here where I live and work the treatment providers have a saying... laughter is the best medicine sometimes.

for example if the reason behind dissociation, derealization and depersonalization is because you are sad, stressed out.. taking a few minutes break from what ever is going on, to relax and think positively, the dissociation, depersonalization and derealization can go away. I do it all the time with my work and home life. and it works for me.

its true that with **some** people these three dissociative problems wont go away but there are lots of us out here that treatment does take them away, fixes the problems.
