> what is the difference derealization vs. psychosis? Is derealization and pre-psychotic the same or can it be the same?
Derealization doesn't involve delusions or hallucinations. It's just a profound sense that the world around is not real or that you are not real or part of the world (the latter is called depersonalization). I think in the DSM, it's considered an anxiety disorder and I have found it very much like an extended panic attack.
