Hi SilkyWilks,
Derealization is closely connected to depersonalization. Check out the descriptions of these dissociated states on Wikipedia.
I've only suffered from derealization and depersonalization a couple of times. The worst one was triggered by a marathon bout of kundalini yoga which totally freaked me out. Felt like I was trapped in a bad dream and would never wake up. Nothing seems quite right or real.
I recently saw a good movie about a guy who suffers from depersonalization and how he learns to live with it. I'd highly recommend it. It's called NUMB and stars Matthew Perry. Here's a link to the trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aa60FdWbdYY
