Spaced Out/ Drunk Feeling

Hi everybody,

I've been struggling with a spaced out/drunk feeling for the last 6 weeks. I have an occasional feeling of fullness in one of my ears and sometimes have difficulty focusing my vision. I don't have any real dizziness or vertigo.

I've had my eyes checked by an optician and been told they are fine.

My GP wants me to let it run its course to see if it improves, but I'm starting to struggle to cope with it. I'm not driving or really going out on my own as I feel so spaced.

I've also had the Epley manoeuvre performed for suspected Labyrinthitis/BPPV but that didn't work either.

Any recommendations would be great!
