Summary
They experienced 24/7 depersonalization and derealization for about seven months from early 2020, describing a surreal sense that everyone was in on a joke. After their wife asked them to stop talking about it, they stayed silent for a couple of weeks and it eventually faded. They still saw glimmers but shrugged them off, and reported no recurrence for over three years.
