Overcoming Depersonalisation and Feelings of Unreality, 2nd Edition: A self-help guide using cognitive behavioural techniques (Overcoming Books) Paperback – April 30, 2019

This book has helped me so much. I was been walking around in a fog feeling left out of life. Everything I did was a chore. I felt like I couldn't connect with my family and friends. Before my trauma I was fully engaged in life and loving it! After the trauma I felt like I was just watching. It's hard to discribed how hard it was for me. I didn't know how to ask for help. I was very sensitive to criticism. I believed that I must have done something terrible. I researched online try to figure out if this was going to be my life now.I was so relieved to find out that what was going on with me was a real thing and I could change it and be myself again.I was amazed that after reading only the first chapter I felt so much better.I highly recommend this book to anyone who is feeling apart from life. I am excited to continue learning and doing everything it takes to heal 100%.I have the Kimball version so I am unable to include a photo.

helped me understand what i was feeling and helped with feeling less alone.

About 60% of the book is a CBT primer. Another 39% is on depersonalization. Almost nothing on derealization. If that is your issue, this is not the book for you.

This is a very good book. I relate to it very well. It has grounding exercises I think will be of great help to me.
