Depersonalisation (when u feel floaty/light)

[Cheeky220]

if u experience depersonalisation and u feel all light like ur head isnt there i wear a head band round my head helps me to feel that i can still feel my head there as i can feel the band! maybe silly but anything goes

I see where you are coming from Cheeky. Personally I tell myself over and over again that I am fine and that nothing bad will happen and to just focus on what I am doing or whats going on and try and enjoy myself. My OT said that talking like that would signal to my subconscious that there is nothing to be scared of so the anxiety/DP feelings would get less as there would be "no use" for them, if you see what I mean.
