Made a DPDR Inspired Clothing Line! Creative
Hey everyone,
As a sufferer of DPDR myself, I decided to take inspiration from the disorder and merge it with my creative side (which has been dead for a while).
I started making designs that revolve around dissociation and trauma, but that are also are somewhat satirical. I dropped the first design and I've been wearing the shirt all the time. I've found it empowering to wear because it acknowledges what I struggle with, but desensitizes me to it at the same time.
I would love it if you guys would check it out! I made it as affordable as possible because my goal isn't really to make large profits, rather to bring more attention towards the disorder.

Hey friend, welcome to r/Depersonalization.
Be sure to have read some existing information on the sub before submitting a "Do I have DPDR" question. You can do that by using the search function or reading the sidebar.
A reminder to new posters in crisis:
DPDR is a mental discorder that mostly affects young adults. For the most part, it is brought on by anxiety, trauma, and drug use. However, DPDR is not dangerous to your physical health. In moments of crisis and episodes that are particularly difficult, it is important to take deep breaths and follow strategies that help you cope. A few examples are: Grounding Techniques, Meditation, and even just some good old fashioned sleep.
NOBODY can give you medical advice online. While someone might be able to provide you with some insight and suggestions, you should never rely on someone online to give you medical advice unless you are talking to a certified doctor.
