The above link is to a good summary.

This link is is more in depth.

I'm making my way through other online sites, and have ordered a book by a woman, Janine Baker, who experiences this disorder.

I'm semi-swamped in the midst of my own episode, when I make it surface, do what reading I can.

- this is the title of a book, The Stranger in the Mirror by Marlene Steinberg, which is meant to be really good but I have never read it - The site gives some good info
www.dpselfhelp.com
www.depersonalization.info/main.html
www.dreamchild.net
- this is written by a woman who has suffered DP nearly all her life, it's an interesting read

I want to stash this link also in here for fellow travelers, will apply to some of us that experience depersonalization and related not fun stuff.

Alice in Wonderland syndrome: A syndrome of distorted space, time and body image. The patient with the Alice in Wonderland syndrome has a feeling that their entire body or parts of it have been altered in shape and size. The syndrome is usually associated with visual hallucinations. The majority of patients with the syndrome have a family history of migraine headache or have overt migraine themselves.

The syndrome was first described in 1955 by the English psychiatrist John Todd (1914-1987). Todd named it, of course, for Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll. Perhaps not coincidentally, Lewis Carroll suffered from severe migraine. Also known as a Lilliputian hallucination.
