We are waiting 2 more days for the psych referral, and I'm looking for ways to help my daughter in the meantime. She recently began struggling with depersonalization where she feels she is in a dream or trapped in a video game.
Can anyone give me some ideas on how to help her get through until we can see a mental health professional? She becomes so terrified when this happens and it is heartbreaking. I have dealt with a lot of depression, PTSD, OCD, etc but I have never felt what she is feeling.
Thank you!
