Dementia is not a natural part of aging. Here, we look at Dissociation as a potential mechanism behind the pathologies of certain dementias like CTE and FTD

Reminder that chronic forms of depersonalization may affect as many as 1 in 50, and some form of visual perceptual change 60% of trippers.
People don't talk about these phenomena, b/c they don't want to face prejudice or seem 'crazy'.
∴ Cultures of self-stigma + distress
Had a wonderful conversation the other day with @EdPrideaux regarding Dissociation and how they can play a part in Psychedelics and HPPD. Go check out him and his work with the @PerceptionFdn!

We are hard at work on new content, such as the links between Dissociation and disorders such as Dementias and their resulting cognitive decline.

We made a video about what directions we plan on going in the future as well as more information about our current fundraiser/awareness campaign!

The primary goal for us is to spread the information and raise awareness, rather than reach any sort of financial goal. I did my best to make the items as cheap as possible, while still keeping it in a realistic range of necessary items to be sold for the order to be filled.
The Outside the Box Project is having a fundraiser to help raise awareness about Dissociative Disorders, which chronically impact 10% of the population! The price of the clothing has been lowered to help reach a wider audience and get our name out there!

Ever wonder what Depersonalization or a Dissociative Disorder is?
The site and YouTube channel covers symptoms, societal impacts, clinical presentations, and even evidence based treatments for #dpdr
@doddleoddle @unrealcharity
Have you ever had a difficult time explaining how DPDR feels to others? This may help others understand what's happening.
