[Be...] Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 Is it normal for Depersonalization to last over 3months ? It's been 3months and I still have it , I'm getting scared , if you also had it , how long did you have it ? I'm scared that it won't go away , I think it's getting worse , I heard from people before that usually lasts just a few weeks but it's been over 3months and it's worse not better , is it still withdrawel from clonazepam even when it's over 3months ? I'm still on 0,5 mg of clonazepam ( down from 0,5mg ) , please help , thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[am...] Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 Hi Bechlin, I had it pretty bad for about 4 months during my acute phase of withdrawal and once in a while before and after the acute phase. It is scarey stuff no doubt. I don't think there is anything worse than feeling like your soul has left your body, at least not that I have ever experienced. Hang in there, you will get better.

[In...] Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 I've had very heavy derealization for all 9 months off benzos. I've spoken with MANY others here are in the same boat. It is not abnormal and you are not alone. Parker made a post recently that hers has finally gone at 26 months off. Gives hope to us all! http://www.benzobuddies.org/forum/index.php?topic=96977.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest [wi...] Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 I've been having unrelenting DP/DR issues since taper. I'm waiting for a window. I feel like I don't know my own children...it is is scary. Mine comes with memory lapses (possibly related to PTSD 5 years ago). I've never been diagnosed w/any personality disorders. You are not alone. Everyone tells me to be patient and our connections will slowly return. Kind thoughts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
