since now zinniapaw is an app, it's time to start planning out how it'll work. internet definition of depersonalization-derealization disorder: Depersonalization-derealization disorder occurs when individuals frequently feel disconnected from their own body, thoughts, or emotions (depersonalization) or perceive the world around them as unreal, dreamlike, or distorted (derealization). While brief episodes of depersonalization or derealization are common under stress, DPDR is diagnosed when these experiences are persistent, recurrent, and interfere with daily life. Symptoms often begin in late adolescence or early adulthood. how it'll work for fae Well, it probably won't start until late apprenticeship, but anyway... first fae will be having light occurrences of the second symptom, derealization. the world will start feeling less real and solid to her. zin will have trouble seeing the world as it is. she'll begin observing life as not real, everything as not real. then at the start of warriorhood, zinnia will now have depersonalization as well. faer body and emotions will not feel like they belong to faerself anymore. instead, she'll be watching the experiences happening to her. she won't feel connected to it many times, as if she were watching another cat. as her life goes on, these symptoms will progress to becoming more and more common. at least two times in any week the world would suddenly cease to be normal, or her body would cease to be hers. managing it wellllll fae wouldn't even know she had the disorder... but as much as she can, zinni will try to she the world properly, as she had in kithood. as for depersonalization... there isn't much she can do.
