Derealization also known as DR is the feeling that the real world or objective reality is not real. Individuals suffering from derealization feel that their real life external surroundings are lacking in depths, colors or vibrancy. Derealization is often associated with depersonalization, the feeling that one self is not real.

Researchers have theorized that the rise of virtual reality can lead to increased instances of derealization.[1]

Derealization and Virtual Reality

Researchers from Fernand-Seguin Research Center in Montréal, Québec, Canada found that being immersed in an VR environment increases the feelings of derealization and other associative experiences and reduces the sense of presence in objective reality.[1]
