psychedelics
Treatment for Depersonalization-derealization disorder (DPDR)
Psychedelics like psilocybin and LSD act primarily on 5-HT2A serotonin receptors, modulating neural connectivity and potentially disrupting rigid default mode network patterns associated with DPDR. These compounds can induce neuroplasticity and alter perception, potentially helping patients reintegrate sensory experiences and reduce feelings of detachment by promoting neurological flexibility and emotional processing.
