Once you have triggered depersonalization by smoking marijuana there is no point in blaming yourself as you could not have possibly known that you were predisposed to it.
Although everything appears to be like a dream and you constantly feel like going crazy you have to remember that the opposite is the truth.
Your perception may seem altered, however only your emotions have changed forcing you to think that there is something wrong with your eyes.
The true cause of your depersonalization is an underlying anxiety disorder, therefore to overcome depersonalization your best choice is to start controlling your anxiety.
To do this I personally found these methods to be very helpful: 1.
Exercise - performing any kind of physical activity promotes endorphin production which essentially makes you feel happy.
2.
Take your focus off it - do not obsess about your depersonalization as these negative thoughts only feed the underlying anxiety making your condition just worse.
Stop blaming yourself and thinking about what could you have done differently as this will not help, it is time to move on.
Try to force yourself into performing some kind of activity such as playing guitar as this will help you change your focus.
3 Identify the sources of your anxiety - one of the most important factors in treating anxiety is identifying its causes and learning how to handle them.
Realizing what your fears are and then facing them is the most efficient therapy.
In order to do this try to research anxiety related topics as being informed about your enemies comes handy in defeating them.
There is a lot of great information and literature out there that will help you accomplish this and so defeat your anxiety.
So do not hesitate and give it a try! 4 Supplements - eating supplements such as L-tryptophan can be greatly helpful in suppressing your anxiety.
They may not help instantly, but you will be able to see results in couple of weeks as your anxiety will start to decrease in severity.
Your anxiety arises from a chemical imbalance in your brain, therefore it is important to regain this balance by providing the brain with essential chemicals.
5 Avoid harmful substances - abstain from alcohol, tobacco, coffee and psychoactive substances as this will make your anxiety worse and will slow down regeneration.
Be patient as depersonalization can last for several months (10 for me), but the prognosis for recovery is very high meaning that the chances you will overcome it are quite positive.
By successfully following the above mentioned tips you will be able to shorten the recovery period by months!
