Hi
Depersonalization & derealization disorder can be part of psychosis or dissociative or part of anxiety or sometimes part of epilepsy, if it's not distressing then some times it could be normal also.

Yes it is curable. Usually the cause behind it is hidden stress which causes anxiety and depression along with such symptoms. Treatment depends on identifying the stress and treating it properly. It may take few days to months to get relief. Electric shock doesn't require in such cases and he doesn't require medication for life long. No idea about homeopathy.
