I have a lot of luck on derealization with Anafranil. Mine occurs apart from anxiety, I associate it with OCD though I've had GAD in the past. Pot + derealization is horrifying. I've had the visual disturbances - essentially impossible to describe to a normal person. I actually partially lost my vision for about a half hour - big bright pulsating blind spots. But with the Anafranil I felt in control of my mind and wasn't scared. In some ways it was gratifying in that it was definitely not just my imagination - I was largely blind - period. I think there's more to that visual thing. Derealization is just plain scary but I hope it helps to know that I've had it real bad and then had it subside. I was totally obsessed with it and fighting it. My advice is not to fight it but rather just go with it knowing that you're not alone and that it can subside. Prozac made it much worse in me.
