Listen "All About Depersonalization, Derealization, and Dissociation at College"
Episode Synopsis
Today I’m talking about Derealization, Depersonalization, and Dissociation. Depersonalization is where students have the feeling of being outside themself and observing their actions, feelings or thoughts from a distance. Derealization is where they feel the world is unreal. People and things around them may seem "lifeless" or "foggy". Disassociation is experiencing a loss of connection between thoughts, memories, feelings, surroundings, behavior and identity. I’m going over what this all means for college students and what parents can do to help. It’s a fascinating yet challenging aspect of mental health that can cast a surreal haze over a student's perception of reality.https://www.youtube.com/channel/motivatecounselinghttps://motivatecounseling.com/https://motivatecounseling.com
