Agree w Dr. Ali: When there is significant dissociation - i usually treat with atypical antipsychotics in addition to other medications ; non- medication treatments.

Multimodal: Research shows that Individuals with PTSD who exhibit symptoms of derealization and depersonalization tend to respond better to treatments that include cognitive restructuring and affective and interpersonal regulation. Consult with a professional for treatment recommendations, e.g., medications and psychotherapy tailored to your specific symptoms. Best wishes
