How does derealization occure?

Question

Can someone who is going through a dysphoric manic stage start feeling derealization?

And let me get this correct, is this derealization?

I was standing in my room and I kinda couldn't recognize my room for about a minute, nothing in my room seemed to click in my mind.

I still feel like that sitting in my room. I would look at my table and im like "thats my table...."

That is derealization right? Why am i feeling this? Is this common in people who are bipolar 1?
