Landon, 20, who is also a musician like his father, said he has a “very, very minor” case of the neurological disorder that causes a person to have involuntary physical or verbal tics.
“I’ve had this since I can remember, like preschool,” Landon recalled.

He said that for months he had suffered from depersonalization/derealization disorder, a type of dissociative disorder that consists of recurrent or persistent feelings of detachment from one's body or mental processes, usually with a feeling of being an outside observer of one's life (depersonalization) or of being disconnected from an environment (derealization), according to the Merck Manual.
“It was horrible, and I went through intense OCD, increased ADHD, and increased anxiety, all while dissociating and feeling like I was in a video game… I watched my entire life through a movie screen. It was honestly horrible,” she revealed.

“It kind of started with: I would drink, and the next day I would disassociate a lot, and that's how my heavy drinking started. It was like, oh, I would feel better the second I had a drink, and then yeah, it kind of all started and it all started really quickly,” he recalls.
