Can Diprivan worsen the symptoms of chronic depersonalization?
human
I need an endoscopy. I suffer from chronic depersonalization/derealization. Marijuana induced 36 yrs ago. I would like to know if Propofol/Diprivan used for sedation will worsen my DP disorder. I understand this anesthetic works with the brains cannobinoid system in the same way THC does. Please advise. Thank you.

Hi.I understand your concern.Depersonalisation is dissociative disorder and nothing to do with THC. Cannabis can worsen or induce psychological disorder. No need to worry with anesthetic agent like profofol. Ketamin can worsen psychological illnesses.So continue to take medicines for depersonalisation while going through operative procedures.Take advise from your treating psychiatrist and get help.I hope I have answered your question. Thank you.
