The key to permanent recovery is understanding. One must understand that depersonalization is a stubborn form of the anxiety condition fueled by the habit of constant fearful worry. It is nothing more than a tired mind and not an illness. Therefore, medication is unnecessary. Without fear, this condition can no longer exist. Once this is understood, one is able to begin the two-step process leading to permanent recovery.

Two-Step Process

(1) The first step is to learn how to “retrain the brain.” Thinking in a new and productive method allows an exhausted to refresh and rejuvenate, allowing clarity to return. Learning to break the habit of fearful worry interrupts the habit that fuels the brain fog. The mind is able to refresh without requiring a long or drawn out process.

(2) The second step is the introduction of a specific nutrition plan which boosts Serotonin in the brain naturally and continues to replenish it on a daily basis. By using the proper foods, one is also able to maintain balanced blood sugar levels as well, creating a far less reactive mind and body without the necessity of medication.

When this two-step process is precisely followed a full and permanent recovery will result. Medication is merely a band-aid and only prolongs the recovery process. There comes a point when one must learn how to interrupt the habit of fearful worry in order to overcome this disorder permanently.

Hints and Tips

– Maintain an active schedule and give up the urge to approach this disorder from the standpoint of illness.

– Remain working and socializing as this allows one to break the habit of inward thinking.

– Negativity is a strong part of this disorder and must be addressed and immediately corrected.

– Depersonalization Disorder is an offshoot of the anxiety condition. One may experience anxiety without ever experiencing depersonalization but one cannot experience depersonalization without a base source of anxiety.

– Medications exacerbate this condition. A highly sensitized and reactive individual will generally experience more side effects, rather than benefits, when attempting to use medication.

– Depersonalization Disorder is not an illness and should not be categorized as one. This is merely a learned behavior, fueled on by fearful thought. This disorder cannot exist without the element of fear to fuel it.

The combination of behavioral modification and nutrition is the one approach, the only approach, that ensures complete and permanent recovery, a return to full clarity, peace of mind and a true sense of well being.
