Depersonalization disorder is characterized by a persistent or recurrent feeling of detachment or estrangement from one's self, while maintaining a clear sense of reality and intact memory. Individuals with this disorder do not typically have impaired recall of previous life events or a weakened sense of self, distinguishing it from other dissociative disorders.
