yes I have the derealization. It feel horrible and I am going crazy. I don't understand it, I sometime run around the block and don't even feel tried . It is very strange. I once ran outof my apt almost naked during a snow storm and didn't really feel cold. hugs to you and does anyone know what the derealization means

I tell you when you have this problem it feels like you're the only person in the world who has experienced it. I can relate to running out of the house. I did that one time in the winter. (Was dressed though.) I absolutely feel like I'm nuts when I get a bad attack. It's like you don't feel like you have control over yourself. You want to run and scream and the thought of doing that doesn't seem like it's really going to fix the impending horror of what's about to happen. My doc explained it as a glitch in brain function in response to stress. The best thing to do is remind yourself that your brain is causing your feelings and you're acting irrationally given the situation you're in. Hey if running helps calm you down and you're in a situation where you can run, then go for it. To anyone who has a real panic disorder I highly recommend getting the right meds for you from your doc.
