Hi therock, I am mainly using psychotherapy to undo my d/d issues. I too having anxiety/depression too with it along with more but another story. I am not using AD's as I don't like them. I am using xnanx for the anxiety and it is helping. It helps the anxiety which for me triggers the dereal and the deper. I have learned some grounding techniques that have helped me stay in the here and now. At first they did not work. My therapist helped me with them. I had to tell him when things felt unreal or I lost touch with the world or my body. I often leave me body and go someplace else. I have lost alot of time. I have don't this my entire life so I understand. Initially they treated me for partial seizures but have since, my current neuro says no they aren't real seizures. The are part of the DD DX. I underwent tests to see. Anyway, my therapists says I will not need him indefinitely I will get well and won't need him longterm. He has offered an Ad for the depression but so far the xnanx and the therapy is working well. I have been seeing this therapist since Dec. 07. It is important to get the right one.
Let me know if you need anymore information. It can work I think. I am far from well but doing better so much better. I also have panic attacks.
