	Depersonalization and Derealization
		Derealization and Depersonalization are both 'Dissociative disorders' and sufferers of one can experience the other.
		Unlike depersonalization which effects the perception of oneself, derealization is a change in an individual's experience of their environment, where the world around him/her feels unreal and unfamiliar.
		Again, derealization, like depersonalization, is caused by a change in the way senses percieve our surroundings due to sensitized, anxious, nerve signals reaching the brain.

		Exactly why some people develop these disorders is not entirely understood, but many experts believe they may develop as a protection against traumatic experiences usually accompanied with extreme anxiety, panic attacks and stress.
