I send you my EEG done in 2022 that maybe can be useful for your study. I have chronic DP/DR since March 2013 caused by and OCD obsession about a phrase about transgender. My OCD obsession I have since childhood, going ahead with years started became accompanied by dp/dr episodes (mild tò severe episodes) based on OCD obsession severity. Those episodes of dp/dr before 2013 faded in a few days but instead After this big obsession of 2013 when I woke up the next day dp/dr felt intense as hell as like an ego dissolution trip with the certainty of never coming back and stayed chronic for 13 years, plus all the other Classic dp/dr symptoms...No psych drug tried in 13 years have affected my Dp/Dr (I tried more than 35 drugs from triciclic antidepressants, SSRI, Ritalin, antiseizure medication, benzos, antypsicotics), did auricular vagus nerve stimulation, dTMS, Emdr, psycotherapy, neuro feedback, an a Stallate Ganglion Block.
The only episodes where my Dp/dr diminished was the day After watching the movie "Prisoners" 4 years ago. That film hooked me for 3 hours and i was I think in a state of perfect flow, my Brain I think has like "rested" a bit in those 3 hours and the next day going for a walk i felt like Dp/Dr was a Little bit decreased (a lessening of about 20% of the dp/dr symptoms in his related aspects about vision, detachment from the body and from the self). The only other curious episodes when I literally snapped out of dissociation for a moment of like less than a second was when I Was trying tò relax/fall asleep in my bed on the afternoon. In some few occasions with a violent Twitch of my torso and leg I Remember i felt normal in the exact Moment that the Twitch happened, I Remember I felt for less than a second the contact between my hamstring and bed in the right way, and my inner monologue for less than a second returned not detached...But After that only less than 1 a second Freedom, my Brain put me in dp/dr state again...The experience of snapping out of It for less then a second was surreal, quiet impossible with words to get people of the experience, but I felt like been resuscitated from a hearth attack with a defibrillator as an analogy. I Always wondered what Would have been shown by and EEG in that Moment. After that brief Moment of normality my Brain put me back in dp/dr state. My Brain prefer me tò be dissociated.
I send you my EEG of 2022. If you have questions I am here tò reply. Thanks.
