What Is Depersonalization?
8. Complications
Depersonalization can be very difficult for people to endure. Thus, in addition to the symptoms already mentioned, it can also lead to some potentially serious complications. It can play havoc with the patient’s life, and relationships and careers can suffer terribly as the patient struggles to function normally.
Patients with the condition can have difficulty remembering things, potentially causing problems at home and at work. Many patients with the condition can begin to develop a feeling of hopelessness. Depression can also develop, and this is a potentially very serious condition that causes many people to take their own lives every year.
