The more I read about depersonalization, the more I wonder how many of those famous musicians and other performers in the 27 club just had really bad dysphoria and no educational resources to help them understand it.
I& #39;ve always been really real with you, Twitter. More than I am with almost anyone in my personal life. Depersonalization is the most seen I& #39;ve felt since I discovered ADHD didn& #39;t just mean you were hyper as a kid. It& #39;s a fucking bullseye. I don& #39;t know what that means yet.
Especially lately, it& #39;s mostly been discussed in a gender context. And I don& #39;t feel like the nexus of my depersonalization has much of anything to do with gender, necessarily. But it& #39;s definitely something. Probably going to take some time to figure out.
Specifically the parts that hit my weak spot for massive damage:
* Feeling like the real you is your mind and it& #39;s riding around in a meat robot that feels disposable and you have no real ownership of, which you mentally frame as being free from vanity
* Not being able to imagine a happy future for yourself
* Not being able to answer questions about what you want because you don& #39;t really want anything just because
* Only making progress in your life when a crisis forces you to, and never proactively
* Not being able to experience emotions in situations where you think you should
* Knowing your relationship with sex has always been different from your same sex peers but not being able to figure out why.

Anyway, I have a very good therapist and supportive friends. Thank gods
