    The fact that you mention 'derealization' and that you mention that you have been taking diazapam makes me feel that you are no stranger to depression and/or anxiety attacks.

    If this is correct, how long have you had this problem and when was it diagnosed?

      Have you considered that maybe the best bet for you is for you to go and see your doctor and seek some help?

      If you do not go then the problem could get worse, leaving you with a chronic anxiety disorder.

      I think the only way round this one is to nip it in the bud and see your doctor.

      You don't know it might be nothing at all, so all the worry you will have been experiencing could well be over nothing.
