What Is The Appropriate Treatment For Derealization?
My grandniece was diagnosed with derealization, She is the happiest child in the world so clearly this is not linked to teen angst, depression, or panic disorder, the doctors think that a combination of exposure to mono and a fall on her head affected her brain in this manner. My question is how is this treated in a patient who is not depressed, and where is the clinical work being done?
