I've been wanting to do this project for two years now and I'm surprised that I was given the privilege to do so from all of the amazing talent that agreed to come on and help make that happen. As someone that has been heavily suffering from depersonalization and derealization alongside a long-living generalized anxiety disorder, this project is something that speaks from a decade of experience and I hope it's able to speak to at least one other person and can tell them that they aren't alone in that void. Depersonalization and derealization are two of the most self-dehumanizing things that you can be forced to be deal with, enforcing the idea that you'll always feel fake and alone no matter how many people are in the static around you. However, I do know that we can all help each other in the static and that we will all wake up soon. Please remember that you are valid and you won't be sleepwalking forever, I promise. I hope you were able to find relatability, comfort or realization in watching this. Thank you for stopping by and watching :) #depersonalization #derealization #depersonalisation #derealisation
