For me derealization is feeling like you are floating out of your body. Or sometimes it's a disbelief that anything is real. There are times when it can be pleasant like when you go on vacation and you ask yourself am I really here or just dreaming? Or when you are in love and it's your first kiss. Then again there are times when you may be giving a speech and you feel as if nothing around you is real or it's too quiet and it can cause anxiety, panic, Sometimes things can seem so strange out of place. Time can pass real slow Sounds can be amplified. Things look too large or small. I used to get this deja' vu feeling like I was doing the same thing over and over a trillion times and not able to stop. It can be an EXTREMELY distressing feeling.
