You’re Not Broken: Understanding DPDR with Rachel Blogg

You’re Not Broken: Understanding DPDR with Rachel Blogg

In this solo episode, Rachel Blogg explores Depersonalization and Derealization Disorder (DPDR), an experience that leaves many people feeling disconnected from themselves or from the world around them—and often misunderstood by the mental health system. Rachel breaks down what DPDR actually is, including the difference between depersonalization and derealization, and why these symptoms are frequently misdiagnosed or minimized. She explains why DPDR is not a personal failure or a mindset problem, but a nervous system response rooted in trauma and chronic stress.

Rachel also discusses why finding the right support matters so much when it comes to healing. She shares why many therapists are not trained to treat dissociation, what makes trauma-informed care essential, and how approaches like DBT can help regulate symptoms and restore a sense of safety in the body. Throughout the episode, Rachel offers reassurance, clarity, and hope—reminding listeners that they are not crazy, not broken, and not alone, and that healing from DPDR is possible with the right understanding and support.
