The sensations of the body and the activity of the mind seem foreign and distant, like they somehow belong to another person\u2014or to no one at all. Emotional numbness often accompanies feelings of dissociation, or if emotions are felt they may seem strange and unfamiliar. Memories may be hazy or incomplete, and at times it can be hard for the person to remember their own name.<\/p><p><strong>Derealization<\/strong>\u00a0projects this sense of disconnection and distortion onto the surrounding world. Everything seems unreal or alien, and even the closest companions may seem like strangers. Sounds may be louder or softer than expected, objects may look blurry, excessively clear, or misshapen, and time may seem to speed up or slow down. The experience will have a surreal or dreamlike quality, but the person knows they\u2019re awake the whole time.<\/p><p>Symptoms of depersonalization or derealization are unpredictable: they may gradually fade or suddenly end, and they can last for a just a few minutes or for much longer. When the disorder is severe, these experiences are highly distressing and can cause anxiety and panic.<\/p><p>To make an official diagnosis for depersonalization\/derealization disorder, mental health professionals must determine if these four criteria have all been met:<\/p><ol><li>Symptoms of depersonalization and\/or derealization are experienced on a recurrent basis<\/li><li>The person knows their impressions and perceptions are illusory<\/li><li>The symptoms experienced cause significant distress or social and occupational impairment<\/li><li>The symptoms cannot be accounted for by another mental or physical health condition<\/li><\/ol><p>Meanwhile, a substance use disorder will reveal its presence through multiple physical and behavioral symptoms, which double as diagnostic criteria. These telltale signs of addiction include:<\/p><ul><li>Increase in tolerance for drugs or alcohol<\/li><li>Experiencing withdrawal symptoms when substance use is interrupted<\/li><li>The development of physical and psychological cravings for drugs or alcohol<\/li><li>Heavy substance use occurs more often than planned<\/li><li>Substance use continues despite causing relationship problems<\/li><li>Significant time is invested using drugs or alcohol, acquiring them, and recovering from their effects<\/li><li>Substance use continues even though it has caused or exacerbated other mental or physical health problems<\/li><li>Daily responsibilities related to family, home life, and\/or occupation are neglected because of substance abuse<\/li><li>Hobbies and other pleasurable activities have been abandoned in favor of drugs or alcohol<\/li><li>The person has engaged in hazardous behaviors in connection with their substance use<\/li><li>All previous attempts to get sober have ended in relapse<\/li><\/ul><p>As few as two of these symptoms is enough to diagnose a mild substance use disorder, while demonstrating six or more means a severe addiction is present.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-01b6813 e-con-full animated-slow e-flex elementor-invisible e-con e-child\" data-id=\"01b6813\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;animation&quot;:&quot;fadeIn&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8a0d2bc elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"8a0d2bc\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Dangers of Overdose\n<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0996b70 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"0996b70\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<section class=\"content-block nitro-offscreen\"><div class=\"padding-top-content\"><div class=\"section-content\"><p>Heavy use of drugs and alcohol creates a risk for dependency, but it also puts a person at risk for sudden death, in the form of a drug or alcohol overdose.
