Caden is 17 years old. For 2 years he suffered with chronic Depersonalization Disorder, triggered by a bad weed experience.
As Caden once wrote to me in an email, quote "I felt like my vision was delayed, almost like I was floating through space. I felt like at any moment I was going to lose feeling in my body and pass out."
Fortunately, Caden has since made a complete recovery. And he's with us today to talk about his experience with and recovery from Depersonalization Disorder.

I almost didn’t want to hear what a 17 year old had to say but this dude is waaaaaay beyond his years. Wow!!! I relate to his experience, goes to show DP doesn’t care about age!
Thank you so much I’m glad you can relate 🙏
I’m 3 months out from my bad drug experience and I’m still having trouble wrapping my head around how one bad experience could shape how I feel for this long. Makes me question if I’m just going crazy or delusional and making things up, but maybe that’s just the condition. Hope others can relate.
Hello from germany, i had this too. It will go away 100% trust me. Its sounds weird that but u have to "get used to it"
You are absolutely not going crazy. This is normal. It’s not the experience itself that causes this much trouble for this long. It’s the feelings of anxiety and confusion about the condition that replace our normal thoughts. Kind of like intrusive thoughts. Once you can prove to yourself that this feeling and thoughts don’t actually interviene with reality, you will recover.

Very well spoken young man glad he made a full recovery!
thank you!
@@cd.a7xhi Caden I’m still listening to it but just curious to know if you ever smoked weed again?
Recovered 100% from my DP/DR about 8 and a half weeks ago. Had it for just over 3 months from a bad Pharmaceutical drug reaction. It sent me into crippling depression and anxiety and I ended up in the mental health ward desperate for help. Watching your videos in the mental health ward really gave me hope. Now 3 months since that, it’s crazy that my brain can barely even remember what it was like. Defs still recovering from some sort of PTSD from the event but wow, what a shake up of reality!
Can I really have ur ig? Need to talk with someone suffered from it
Thanks for your comment Josh, and delighted to hear that you've recovered! 😊
@@Dpmanual thank you for shining light on this temporary but frightening condition. So many “health professionals” have no idea what it is and have never even heard of it. Keep up the good work. Your impact on people reaches further than you think

You're not alone ❤️
I can’t begin to explain how uplifting and helpful this video has been on my journey of overcoming DP/DR, thank you for the informative video.
So glad it was helpful! 😊
16:00 is so relatable. Feeling like you know too much now to go back to normal. How can I just go on about my life when I have to worry about death and the universe etc. Those intrusive thoughts feel so reasonable and overbearing in the moment, but I’m hoping I will be able to look back and realize they were just anxious thoughts and nothing more.
Don’t worry Jack, existential / intrusive thoughts like that are super common with DPDR. I know they can be frustrating and frightening but they are also temporary and harmless and will fade away and stop as your recovery continues 😊 www.dpmanual.com/articles/depersonalization-fears-and-anxious-thoughts/
Literally. It blows my mind how petrified I was during it every damn day. It was a living hell. But after recovering I’m back to caring about tedious things like “when is my next coffee?”, “man, I really need to book that dentist appointment in already” and “damn you, guy who cut me off in traffic” . Your mind has a crazy ability to heal from Trauma and push these things out over time
@@joshhenchman9810 Im at the stage where im trying to move on but these thoughts are debilitating! they suck the fun out of everything. Do I just push through?
@@jensnow5690 yes, it still happens to me on a daily basis. But the mind will heal. You just got to keep on living. But if you’re spaced out/ foggy / anxious. Lay down in a nice cool room. Relax. Listen to your body
I had dp after a bad expectorant abuse experience.Its been almost three months now the first two months where very severe, but after watching your videos am making quick recovery.What worries me the most is how humans exist, but i keep encouraging myself.I have lived for more than 18years it never felt strange so i know its just the condition causing it.Thanks Shaun You Are A good Man,i get better everyday
"God will just controle my life" , I had this fear recently and I'm not even a religious person but I still feel anxious thinking about this 😢
I know it's just dpdr but my mind keeps telling me what if this is not dpdr but some sort of spiritual awakening or if I'm connected to god in some way .
I hope I can recover soon ❤

I feel constantly that I am lying to myself all the time. I do not feel like I exist almost and have the feeling the I am myself and am going through a problem in life for the time being if you know what I mean. I also have what if thoughts I lot of times . Like right now as I’m writing this, I am like “ maybe you are righting this for fake reassurance that this is anxiety so you can move on under labeling it as anxiety when it is something big that you can’t move on from”.
It’s like I know it’s anxiety but I can’t distract myself with video games or watching sports anymore because I literally can’t feel it like I could. I already had an anxiety problem before this came on so now I just can’t figure out how to control something that feels so ingrained in me. I already have meniers disease which makes this even more challenging and the fact I just found out my dad is dying. Im trying to start part time work but I have a panic attack trying to even go in because of my social anxiety which I had before all of this and now on top of DP. One of my worse symptoms of this disorder is looking at people and their mannerisms. It confuses me and I start to think how is it possible we even exist and we don’t make any sense. And peoples eyes terrify me too. Then I think about how I took life for granted before I got this disorder and how blessed I was ans I waited to long to change my life and I beg to be normal again, crying daily. This sucks really bad I can barley hang on. I’m only 28 and had a bright future.
Shaun (I hope I spelled your name right) you’re a good man. I hope you know that

Hello, I have been commenting for a while on your chanell and im doing it again because i wasnt expecting to see such a relatable video. I am the same age as him,currently 17 and i had the bad weed experience back in april(i was 16 at the time). Then having a huge panick attack the next day at home watching some youtube video and I remember telling my mom that i smoked some weed and i was going crazy. The panick attacks kept going on for the next day while i was at school and i was in a general state of panick all the time. So I discovered your channell and was in the same state of denial as he was, Just repeating that it wasnt DP therefore making ´myself afraid of it being Dp and going into a spiral of thoughts and emotions I couldn´t even begin to wrap my head around. Wasn´t being able to pay attention in school and constantly researshing what this could be. Going on reddit and all kinds of forums. Having the classic fear that this will last for 2 years thinking to myself"omg i cant go 5 days with this if i have to be like this for 2 years i will certainly lose my mind". Its like my life was just flipped from one moment to the other and i was crying a lot because it was just overwhealming.
Eventually i reached a point where i was just done with this and accepted the fact that it is Dp, purchasing your manual in july. I have followed the rules in your book very strictly and am getting better each day. It is by all means a very slow process but i just keep one foot in front of the other and try not to look back. The reason I was back on your page after about 2 months of being completly away from anything dp related is because i had a very good 3/4 days. I was barely even thinking about it and when i would think about it I would just think that Im getting better and go on with my day. It was crazy how good I felt in relation to this. But today i woke up and for about 5 minutes I completly forgot about it, then a thought just hit me like a truck. Just thinking about it. So like you said "setbacks are a essential part of recovery" and i followed that all day. Feeling uneasy but keeping my head up. But as I was leaving the gym. Just intense anxiety came over me and I was kinda rude when i responded to my friends just because I was so mad it came back so strong. Then I came home and wasnt´t able to focus on the yt video I was watching. I kept trying to distract myself as I knew this was just a setback but I ended up here and i feel very guilty about it. But I guess i just have to keep going. Let me know if u have had any similar experience with setbacks like this.
Hey how are you now?
@@sharkishablackson7512 i am doing better the setback went away but it kinda came back today. But its as he said , its made of ups and downs and with time the ups and downs become less noticeable and eventually you just start to not think about it as much. I am still recovering but i can feel better if u are struglling trust me it gets better
@@denis9983how much did u have it and did u recover now please answer
I originally thought it was my ears as well then proceeded to pray and think it was a spiritual thing as well because I wanted the feeling to go away so much

This video was really uplifting. But a lot of videos I see don’t mention things like worrying about the universe and how massive it is… so I worry if it’s something worse that’s going on with me. And these thoughts of the universe really scares me. Like sometimes I think how we’re just on a ball (the planet) in the middle of nowhere; a vast empty space. And it really sets my panic off so much and I get so distressed. Or even looking at photos of stars or planets and being triggered. I never used to be like this until I had my own bad weed experience nearly two years ago.
Don’t worry Nicholas, existential / intrusive thoughts like that are super common with DPDR. I know they can be frustrating and frightening but they are also temporary and harmless and will fade away and stop as your recovery continues 😊 www.dpmanual.com/articles/depersonalization-fears-and-anxious-thoughts/
Hi Nicholas, I also have the same fears with dpdr, thinking how we are just on a ball floating in the vastness of space. Completely causes panic attacks and fear
I’ve been going through this for 2 months now I think pretty soon I’m gonna buy your manual I don’t what’s been going on the way I think and see everything is just not the same I don’t remember who. I was before this I just want it to end and be able to focus I can go for walks or just be at peace with myself just normal walks I can’t even do and I just want it all to go away i smoked for years since I was 15 turning 19 soon and just a few months ago. I started smoking more than I ever had in my entire life and all of this is making me feel insane and I pray I get better I’ve been watching your videos their the only thing that made me feel I can maybe fight this and get better but, thanks for these vids if not these I wouldn’t have anything to get information about this so thank you.
I can’t go for walks or even do anything I could before I can’t do anything fun without my brain ruining it I feel theirs no point to anything n I know this isn’t me because I loved life and every little thing about it. 😕
Hey, thanks for your comment and I'm very glad to hear the videos have been so useful 😊 Firstly, please make sure that you’re speaking to your parents about what’s happening. It’s very important that they know what’s going on. Secondly, I know DPDR can be frightening but remember that it's just your body and brain's natural response to stress and anxiety. It's not permanent and it can't hurt you. You can and will recover. Make sure to read through all the info and articles on my website at www.dpmanual.com
And if you would like to speak to a medical professional please don't hesitate to do so. I would recommend finding an anxiety specialist if possible as they will likely be more familiar with DPDR 👍
@@Dpmanual thanks i hope it does day by day I just feel like I’m going insane I can’t control my thoughts and I’ve just forgotten who I was before n I just don’t like life anymore
@@HursheycytrowskiI have had this for for like a week now, I’m 14. I feel a lot better after telling family and friend, also you have to know that is just anxiety so if u start controlling the anxiety instead of letting it control you, it will feel allot better. Don’t think about it so much and try doing thing you used to do before to distract your self.
I promis that all of us that have it will get better sooner if we just try to stop thinking about it so much

Is it normal to get episodes of it? I’ve experienced what I think is Depersonalization Disorder for the last 10 years or so - the first time it occurred was the day after a bad weed experience. That episode lasted almost a month before it started to fade out. Since then, I’ve had at least 25 episodes - each one lasting about a month or two consistently. for awhile it felt like it was happening every 6 months, as if it was another condition. I’ve been getting them more often lately but they aren’t lasting as long, maybe two weeks or so. I can feel them starting to fade in and I can feel them start to fade out too. When I first start feeling the memory loss, fogginess, inability to do basic tasks, lack of comprehension, etc. I get worried. I always think I’m going into one. My gut is always right because a few days later I realize I’m in it. Is this normal for the disorder? I have a multitude of other symptoms - I have them documented in my phone because I have seen so many doctors and psychiatrists prior to learning this. At the beginning of the episodes I isolate kind of, have irritability/overstimulation, sleep ALOT, can’t control falling asleep while driving/at work, etc.
Have y’all experienced all of this? I get worried that DD isn’t what I have and I’ll be back at square one with not knowing a diagnosis.
I want to get your guide/book but I can’t afford it so I’m turning to the comments for help :(
i greened out at 16 am now 18 been “going crazy” for years lol glad i found you, going to try save up for your audio book 😂
Right hopefully it works because I’ve had this since I was 15 and I’m 18 now

Hey Shaun!
I've had chronic dp and dr since January, now it's getting better, only that I still can't do certain things, like go to school, work, sport, because I think that my dp dr Will become worse and I can't do anything about it, like go out and go away, i feel Stick in Place likes this. I read about the sport that is good, but yesterday after so much effort in a game with friends i felt dizzy, faint and consequently dp and dr stronger I had a mini panic attack. Con you give me some advice.
Hey, thanks for your comment 😊 I know DPDR can be scary but just remember that it’s a natural reaction to stress and anxiety, and people experience it all the time. The National Institute on Mental Illness estimates that up to 75% of people experience at least one depersonalization / derealization episode in their lives. It's part of your brain's natural defence mechanism and usually it only lasts a few seconds or minutes at a time. It's only when it's focused on as a separate problem (feeling like you're going crazy / in a dream etc) that it can turn into a feedback loop with the anxiety that caused it in the first place. But no matter what caused it or how long you've had it, you can always switch it off completely by stopping that anxious feedback loop. Make sure to carefully read through all the articles and info on my website at www.dpmanual.com and my book The Depersonalization Manual.
And if you would like to speak to a medical professional please don't hesitate to do so. I would recommend finding an anxiety specialist if possible as they will likely be more familiar with DPDR 👍
i feel like im the only 13 yr old going through this lmao i see no post about any teenager its usually just adults and since im just a kid i dont think its going away anytime soon.

Hi Shaun. Is it normal to have extreme ups and downs during recovery? I’ll have a great day with minimal anxiety and then the next I’ll be back to square one feeling at my lowest even though I’m sticking to everything in the manual.
Yes, but each time you recover you get more connected,it will eventually stop going up and down.Try socializing when it gets better again

I have DPDR since using weed 3 months back (and taking medication), and I have rare symptoms that I can't explain.
I regularly feel like I'm transitioning from one perspective to another in a matter of seconds, as if I'm jumping across the same reality
Could these even be symptoms of DPDR?

Don’t worry, visual symptoms like that are super common with DPDR and will fade away and stop as you recover 😊 www.dpmanual.com/articles/does-depersonalization-affect-vision/
So if faces and eyes are scaring me does that mean I should expose myself to it as much as possible to overcome it and re-train my brain? Including television?
Try not to become hyper focused on this, as the fear is also caused by depersonalization. Try to find the things you enjoy and fill your mind and life up with them again. You won’t have time to think about anything else negative and scary.
Hi Shaun, I had improved a lot but the other day after I had a mini panic attack, now sometimes I'm fine but other times I feel like high heart rate at random times of the day then I feel tired, these things, what would you recommend?
Hi, thanks for your comment 😊 Remember that ultimately, DPDR is just a symptom of anxiety so when the symptoms vary, it's just your anxiety levels going up and down, and certain situations / environments can change them. I know it might seem difficult to believe but you actually have complete control over it 😊 Make sure to read through all the info and articles on my website, starting with this one: www.dpmanual.com/about/depersonalization-definition-what-is-it/

Hello,

@@Dpmanual thank you. How about things like cars or voices seeming to loud than normal? It often makes my heart jump when I see/hear these things.
@@dylanteet7074 Yes, read this: www.anxietycentre.com/anxiety-disorders/symptoms/auditory-symptoms/
is it normal for dpdr to treat their parents, sister, boyfriend as if we don't recognize them, that we don't have the same feeling for them, I can't describe it we know who they are and what they are, but that's not it
This is normal. When feeling DPDR it is normal for feelings of emotional numbness or detachment as well. It can make everything feel foreign. But just know that it is temporary and only persists with the anxiety, and once the anxiety fades even that too will fade.

Good evening Shaun ..
I bought the DP Manual a week ago, and I'm so thankful to you for your amazing efforts .. I have been following your videos here since 2022, so I know well how much your content gives me hope .. I loved the audiobook so much! it's so relaxing .. And you don't know how much I was happy when I found an Arabic translation for the written content, not because I don't understand English, but because I felt like I found a friend who talks to me in my own language about the same problem, it was a beautiful experience .. Again, thank you so much for being here for us .. Wish you all the happiness in the world! 🤍
Thanks so much for your comment and for purchasing The DP Manual, and I'm delighted to hear it's been so useful! Keep up the good work and enjoy your recovery 😊
Hey , Iam an Arab too can we plz talk , really need someone who can understand what Iam going through

Don’t worry, feelings like that are super common with DPDR. I know they can be frustrating but they will fade away and stop as you recover 😊 www.dpmanual.com/about/do-i-have-depersonalization-disorder/
Have u heard that someone has recovered from dpdr that was caused by laced weed pls answer
Don't worry, it doesn't matter what caused it, you can always switch DPDR off completely by stopping the anxiety that's causing it 😊 Read this carefully: www.dpmanual.com/articles/what-causes-depersonalization-disorder/

@@Userr368 Remember that ultimately, DPDR is just a symptom of anxiety so when the symptoms vary, it's just your anxiety levels going up and down, and certain situations / environments can change them. I know it might seem difficult to believe but you actually have complete control over it 😊 Make sure to read through all the info and articles on my website, starting with this one: www.dpmanual.com/about/depersonalization-definition-what-is-it/
@@Dpmanual i read that 10 times and still i dont understand what i need to do?
Ciao. Mi dispiace che io non possa comprendere nulla perche' sono italiana. I sottotitoli sotto i video aiuterebbero a capire😊Grazie
Hi Shaun been watching your videos for some time now trying to clam down these thoughts, i know it was the weed that causes my DpDr to begin with. i haven’t gotten out of it for awhile now, just don’t know if i need meds to quit or if i can quit on my own whilst just quitting the weed, really would be great to have a response on what i should do next🫠
