Depersonalization Disorder is typically treated through psychotherapy such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) , to help change negative and damaging mindsets, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) , to help you gain skills for feeling more connected to yourself and your surroundings.
Typically, treatment entails a combination of at least one mood-stabilizing drug and/or atypical antipsychotic, plus psychotherapy. The most widely used drugs for the treatment of bipolar disorder include lithium carbonate and valproic acid (also known as Depakote).ther antiepileptic drugs, such as gabapentin, oxcarbazepine, or topiramate, are regarded as experimental treatments that are not well-established, but may sometimes have value for symptoms of bipolar disorder or other conditions that often occur with it.
