Weird Feeling in Head/Brain
Posted , 55 users are following.
I suffer from Anxiety and Depression. I went cold turkey off my meds which I know is very stupid. I am back on them now for 3 weeks so far but not seeing an improvement yet. I was wondering if anyone has a feeling that I am feeling. I wake up every morning with severe anxiety and feeling like I am very spaced out and not in my body. It is almost as if I am just a body taking up space. I feel like I will never get better. I have read about Depersonalization so perhaps it's that. It tends to last all day unless I don't think about it which is not very often. Could it be s brain tumor that is causing this? Is it the anxiety or Depression? How long will it take until my meds kick in. if anyone else could explain there experience if they have this that would be great. I feel like people get this but not all day.

Hi everyone hopefully this will be seen by some of the people that are still experiencing problems or the same symptoms. I too have been experiencing the same problems since I have been home for my surgery about a month ago. This has been one of the most scariest things that I have been through and I have had extreme anxiety pounding heartbeat racing heart and I have been feeling crazy and scared that I will never go back to normal but I have tried something and it's too early to tell if this is definitely the answer to the problem but hopefully it and it made me that we are all experiencing some type of leaky gut syndrome. I came across a YouTube video that explains some things to me and it made sense to me and I tried it which 2 have more probiotics in my diet. And to pick out gluten and any other things that might be bad for your gut. I've been taking probiotic pills and been eating plenty of yogurt and drinking kefir as well and other probiotic drink. I will let you share a YouTube video that I came across with you guys and hopefully it will help you get some relief

hi, I'm 18 years old and two weeks ago my sleeping schedule wasn't so good. I decided to take some 3mg melatonin, but only took 2. My sleeping schedule was still messed up after taking them. I forgot to mention that I was paranoid about taking them because I thought they would mess up my body or something. Anyways, couple days later I started to get some regular headaches, but they then changed to tension headaches accompanied with neck aches. They would come and go, then I realized that my eyes felt very tired and dry. I still wasn't able to sleep and so continued sleeping later until I started to realize that my neck aches were getting very bad and same with my tension headaches. Three days ago i went out with my boyfriend and coming home i had some small issues with my mom due to personal problems and it just upset-ed me/ stressed me out. The next day I woke up with huge anxiety! my tension headache / neck ache was super severe I literally started to cry and then realized that my hearing was a bit strange as if i lost some of it. That's when I panicked way more and started crying thinking I was going to die or I had some brain tumor. Then an hour later my jaw started to feel numb/ swollen and started to hurt a bit and still does till this day. With all this happening, I got myself thinking that i have something very severe and that i will never get better. I feel like im in some daydream or something! I feel like I have no energy and so depressed. I have a doctors appointment this Thursday, but I'm scared that they wont know what it is

I just stated on Cipralex (10mg) a day but I've only been taking 5mg because of how crappy they made me feel. I'm on day 4 now and I don't feel as panicky as I did before starting but I feel stressed out, almost anxious but more stressed out. I have a dull headache that doesn't seem to go away unless I'm asleep, also I've been agitated with the smallest things, which is not like me. Has this same thing happened to anyone else taking this med? And if so will it go away? Like most people who suffer from anxiety I just want my life back.

Hi Yadeed,
I have suffered from both anxiety and depression for over 20 years. With the anxiety I was scared of most thing, I was never comfortable with strangers or groups of people or any form of change in my life. I was scared of doing something in case it was the wrong decision and I was scared of not doing something in case it was the wrong decision! I hate anti depressants as I had a bad effect with them many years ago so I was just coping as best I could. I have always thought that I have missed out on life really but I was always more comfortable living in a way I felt most comfortable.
With depression a low day was probably a normal day for me, I did have good days, I even had good weeks but I would say the norm was me feeling a bit low which I got used to and accepted. A bad day could be anything from me avoiding people and feeling crap to crying most of the day and feeling that I did not want to be here. I didn't really want to die I just didn't want to be alive, if that makes sense.
At my lowest point I did want to die, I remember watching a program on the television where someone put a gun in their mouth and pulled the trigger, it actually excited me, the thought that if I had a gun I could end how I felt, luckily in the UK getting hold of a gun is not an easy thing to do. I did plan to end my life twice but this was a long time ago and luckily I was not brave enough to carry it out. I could go into more detail but this is about you, not me but I just wanted to explain things before I went any further.
I have been taking a natural supplement for coming up to 6 months now, I did not take it for either anxiety or depression I took it for other reasons for which it has helped me.. However I have to say for the first time in as long as I can remember I now feel normal. I have more confidence just to deal with the crap that life can throw at us all, I am happier more level headed and my friends and family have all noticed such a difference in me. I am a different person now. The rules on here say you should not advertise products on here but I feel so passionate about this I just want to share it with everyone. A friend of mine who also suffers similar to myself has been taking this for 3 months now and she feels better, she is far less anxious than she was and she is coping far better with every day life.
If you want to have a look here is my website which I have just set up with all the information on it.
It is available in the UK, Europe, America and Australia. It is a natural supplement which is unfortunately lacking in all of our diets. It does not cure anything, what it does do is give the body what it needs for the body to start repairing itself. You can read my own story on there and that of others and there is a link to a separate site which is full of testimonials.
I want to be honest with you, if you do order I will make a couple of pounds, and I mean a couple. I am not here just trying to sell you something, if you buy you buy if you don't you don't. Everything I have written here is the truth and I hope you can see that. If I was just trying to make money, there are far easier and less time consuming way than writing on forums. I am trying to help as many people as I can and the only way I can do that is to tell my story. If you want to contact me direct my details are on the website.
Good luck with everything.
Matt

Oh where do I start! Well almost two years ago my husband was making some very bad choices which put me under a lot of stress, I felt my body changing slowly and I didn't understand what was going on! I went to work one day and my boss told me that she had breast cancer oh Lord did I go into a full panic/anxicety attack it lasted for months cause in my mind I thought I had breast cancer! I had to go to ER and all! My heart was racing, lightheaded a lot, my legs felt like jello, my mind just felt so out of there it was freaking me out! I have been put on several different meds and Idk if its me or the meds but I just didn't see any end to the way i feel! Now my husband went to prison and it's been almost 2 years since this has all starteducation. I still have wired feelings in my head feels like your here but not here, fuzzy feeling, face tingling at times, I feel so much tension in my shoulders that I have big knots, I feel pain in my body and my mind feds off of it and I really feel symptoms. I have been to the doc many and many of times and nothing! I constantly worry about my health like I have some form of cancer or something! I can't stop thinking about it! I pray all the time for God to please take all this away and nothing yet but I keep my faith strong! Praying for everyone cause this s**t sucks!
