I feel like my being is split in two. The observer and the experiencer. It's like I'm too aware my mind is controlling my body as if there is a pilot in a mech suit. However, I do not experience distress from this in of itself as I believe this to be true objectively. I believe we are all actors in a play, except some rare people know they are acting while others are immersed in the contextual role of their character. The people who know they are acting notice how other people don't realize this is a play, and we're all actors. This secret knowledge that other people are ignorant of makes us awkward at the very least or at most in extreme panic. When you are fully immersed in the role of your character, there is no conscious friction or lag between you and the play. Everything goes smoothly in sync. This is why for the people with dpdr, other people seem to operate on autopilot as if they are NPCs. Everything for them is on script automatically.

Now, dpdr without distress is simply the objective acceptance that this perception is actually true because we do not have access to unfiltered reality. I know everything here exists. However, I don't believe it's real in the same way other people are convinced it is real. The following is scientific truth. Everything we perceive is a representation our mind reconstructs from the information our sense organs deliver to our brain for processing. For example, let's say I have a picture of a city street taken from a camera positioned on a sidewalk. Then I physically go to the exact same spot on the sidewalk that picture was taken from and look at the street through my eyes. Every regular person would say those are different things because one is just a picture and the other is an in person view. I, on the other hand, know they are both, in fact, a type of picture. One picture is taken by a camera through a lens. The other picture is taken by our brain through our eyes. The mind takes that picture and synthesizes it for our ego as the user interface of our experience. Although, unlike the isolated picture of a camera, every sense we have a perception of is a continuous emulation from the mind.

Depersonalization-derealization without distress is the reconciliation we are within as well as are a simulation.
