Hi everyone,


Just an quick update...



So my therapist is now getting stuck too. She feels really bad because all the therapy techniques we have tried have done nothing and do not work. Last appointment she told me she really thinks it is physical. She does think the anxiety is playing a part, and she still wants me to try medication, but she thinks that my symptoms are too strong to be just anxiety alone.



She is working and asking a bunch of other therapists that shes knows about it for advice, and shes trying to get to the bottom of this. She wants me to get a second opinion from another neurologist, because the first one said it was emotional. She really believes that there is a physical issue going on in my brain that is causing my depersonalization.



She also wants me to continue with the supplements as the copper could be the source. The supplements would take around a month or so to start seeing results, so I'm not giving up hope yet. (It's been 2 and a half weeks on them)



This is actually great news to me. This whole time I thought it was physical, and couldn't believe it was just my thoughts and emotions causing this feeling, but now that a psychologist who all she does is study problems with emotions, thinks its physical !



What do you guys think? I would love to hear want you all have to say, as I'm trying so hard to get better any advice truly helps.
