derealization, something that works for me

Hi all,

have been suffering from DP/DR for a while now, but i feel things are getting better.

i was walking through the centre of manchester the other day and my DR got quite bad, i had my iphone and a set of headphones in my bag so i started listening to music whilst walking, this really helps me now. if you are a fan of music which im sure most of you are try listening to a new album when you go out, something you may have never listened to before or a genre you dont listen to much.

hope this helps!

The iPhone is simply one of my saviours from anxiety.
If I go to bed feeling anxious, I will use it to read an ebook or I will surf the web or maybe download a few pointless apps :)
Its just a great distraction tool to alleviate my anxiety symptoms !
I'd be lost without it :D
