About this listen
In this episode, I explain depersonalization and derealization—what they feel like, why they happen, and how many people experience emotional numbness, robotic sensations, and feeling detached from their body or surroundings.
I also summarize research showing depersonalization as a protective response to extreme anxiety, the strong link with panic, and how internet catastrophizing and hyper-focus on symptoms make it worse.
Then I offer clear, practical steps to break the cycle: surrender and reframe thoughts, shift attention outward through routines, exercise, mindfulness, journaling, consistent sleep/wake times, and treating depersonalization as harmless background noise so the brain can stop producing it.
