> What is depersonalization disorder and how is it treated?
Difficult to explain. Feelings of detachment from the self; feelings that you & your surroundings are unreal. Read this article if you're interested: http://www.iop.kcl.ac.uk/IoP/Prt/deperson.htm
It's a disorder that's only just gaining mainstream recognition & as such there are no specific treatments. The unit above (to which I'm provisionally enrolled) has experimented with Lamotrigine & SSRIs which have shown some promise.
