'''Derealization''' or '''derealisation''' (sometimes abbreviated as '''DR''') is an alteration in the perception or experience of the external world so that it seems unreal. Other symptoms include feeling as though one's environment is lacking in spontaneity, emotional coloring and depth. It is an effect which occurs as a result of [[dissociative]] usage, but is also a symptom of many conditions, such as psychiatric and neurological disorders, and not a standalone disorder. | '''Derealization''' or '''derealisation''' (sometimes abbreviated as '''DR''') is an alteration in the perception or experience of the external world so that it seems unreal.
