> SSRIs just worsen my depersonalistion.I think I can understand how this might happen. Depersonalization might, in large part, be the result of chronic anxiety superimposed upon anhedonia. Prozac can produce both. The anxiety usually develops right away with Prozac. However, the anhedonia/apathy usually takes a few weeks or longer. The two together could make depersonalization worse, especially in the absence of an antidepressant/anxiolytic response.
Have you ever focused on ameliorating the chronic anxiety?
