The World’s Most Trusted Depersonalization & Derealization Recovery Program
Do You Feel Trapped Inside Your Own Head?
Like there’s a pane of glass between you and the world?
Like you’re dreaming and can’t wake up?
Are you constantly questioning reality and your own existence?
“I don’t feel real”
“The world doesn’t feel real”
“Am I going crazy?”
Do you feel like:
⏳ Time is distorted or fragmented?
🤖 You’re a robot — or everyone else is?
🖐️ Your hands and legs don’t feel like yours?
🌿 You’ve got a weed hangover that just won’t go away?
🧠
You’re Not Alone - And You’re Not Going Crazy
Maybe you’ve spent hours, even days, Googling symptoms...
Endlessly scrolling forums, books, and blogs...
Desperately trying to figure out what’s happening to you.
Maybe a doctor told you it’s “just anxiety” — or worse, they didn’t recognize it at all?
It's called Depersonalization + Derealization.
DPDR are common symptoms of anxiety and trauma,
but they can feel bizarre and terrifying when you don’t know what’s going on.
What They Feel Like:
😵💫
Depersonalization
Feeling cut off from your body or thoughts — like you’re watching yourself from outside.
🌍
Derealization
The world feels foggy, flat, dreamlike — like something’s “off” or unreal.
It’s a scary feeling — but don’t worry.
🚨
1. It’s Not Dangerous
You’re not going crazy. This isn’t psychosis or brain damage.
It won’t turn into anything worse.
📊
2. It’s Extremely Common
✔️ 75% of people will experience depersonalization at some point.
✔️ 1 in 50 will develop Depersonalization Disorder.
Yes, it’s really that common and you are NOT alone.
🧬
3. It’s a Natural Reaction
DPDR is your brain’s built-in response to intense stress.
It’s designed to protect you — not harm you.
For most people, it passes in minutes.
🌿
4. It Doesn’t Matter What Caused It
A bad reaction to weed? A panic attack? Trauma?
Whatever the trigger, the cause is the same: anxiety.
And the treatment is the same too.
💪
5. You CAN Recover
The only reason it’s sticking around is because you’ve been focusing on it,
fearing it and fighting it. But once you stop being afraid of it, it loses its power.
And yes, you can recover, 100%.

You're not alone. I've been there too.
Hi, I’m Shaun. I developed chronic Depersonalization/ Derealization Disorder in 2005 after a panic attack -- and it lasted for two full years. I know exactly how confusing and terrifying DPDR can feel.
At the time, there was almost no information about the condition online. I had to piece together my own recovery, using CBT, mindfulness, and exposure therapy -- and most importantly, understanding how and why DPDR happens in the first place.
When I finally recovered, I decided to share what I’d learned. First, in a short PDF, then over the years, the complete audio + video package that became The DP Manual.
Since then, I’ve helped tens of thousands of people recover. So if you’re dealing with DPDR, please know that it’s temporary, it’s treatable - and you CAN and WILL get through this.
THE DEPERSONALIZATION MANUAL
The DP Manual is the result of carefully documenting my own Depersonalization recovery process, and more than 20 years of working with tens of thousands of DP/DR sufferers since.
I wrote it as the ultimate guide to understand and recover from DP/DR, the guide that I wish I'd had when I first developed Depersonalization and Derealization. A guide that would have saved me months, even years of pain.
Since its first edition as a small ebook in 2007, The DP Manual has expanded and gone on to become a full recovery package -- and is now the oldest, most trusted guide to DP/DR recovery currently available.
It has sold over 50,000 copies, and as of this year, now comes in a brand new, updated & expanded edition with FREE bonus materials including the unabriged audiobook, hours of exclusive videos, FAQs, progress trackers, audio relaxation programs, and much more.
