Depersonalisation/dissociation

Not sure why I’m writing this but just wondered if anyone else has similar experiences?

I am lying in the bath hiding having had to ask my husband to come home from work as I could no longer fight the depersonalisation today and I am so worried I am damaging my child - she’s 2 and I ended up just watching tv with her as I couldn’t function.

I have had therapy that has really helped but it’s just so frustrating that this keeps happening.

Don't think I have anything helpful to say, but I relate to your post a lot. I'm currently hiding upstairs because my husband has had to come home from work for what seems like the millionth time since our almost 2 year old was born because I cannot cope.

I too struggle with dissociation amongst other things and worry it's affecting our child. I resort to TV as well on days when it's really bad, I think that's ok - I'm sure lots of kids watch TV all day everyday!

Do you have support other than your husband? I hope today is a better day for you Flowers
