Occasionally, I go through a period of increased tension and anxiety, extreme sensitivity to noises even someone else speaking is disturbingly loud as well as light and colours, an inability to concentrate or read more than a few sentances or comprehend anything, I'm very tired, my forehead feels tense and my thoughts feel jumbled or oddly imaginative or paranoid to the point that I have to ignore them to function. It usually lasts for a few days to a few weeks or months and spontaneously lifts. My sleeping pattern is normal. At work I don't find it a problem except I might need to write down more in my lesson plans and refer to my notes to keep my thoughts organised (I teach) but, outside of class my mind is blank almost retarded.
This has been going on periodically since I was a teenager. I'm not much older. Sometimes I worry that I might be schizophrenic but, people with schizophrenia don't know when are sick and can't ignore it can they? Does this sound like regular anxiety?

I've been to a doctor for depression before. He put me on an antidepressants. They just made me an insomniac so, he upped my dosage. I tried to kill myself. Failed and never went back. I don't trust psychiatrists.
The reason I worry I'm schizophrenic is before I learned to ignore these crazy thoughts when I was a teenager I would stay up all night talking to a cloud that gathered the worlds thoughts thinking I was a muse of some sorts to great artist. I believed they stole my thoughts. I believed invisible people were trying to poison me to take away my genius and later that injected parasites were in my brain giving me these genius thoughts. I also see faces in everything and have to force myself not to think it's messages from my past or future. I know this is crazy so I ignore it.

I was on 2 antidepressants at a time. First Prozac for depression and Trazodone for sleep. The trazodone did nothing so, the doctor gave me remeron to take at night and kept me on prozac. It didn't do anything either.

Being depressed an on antidepressants is worse than simply being depressed. I was still depressed but, it was like the world was upside down and in reverse.

It's not that people don't remember they don't want to.My ex is and his uncle are schizophrenic and the more drugs he does the worse he gets he had it borderline and then he got into drugs to get rid of the thoughts and feeling and he got worse.The meds he won't take because it puts you in a zombie like state and you cannot manage regular daily life.My sugestion is seek councilling from a sycolagist because they are the same as a syco doctor but they don't prcribe meds which is good.That will help you control it before it starts controlling you.good luck on getting better.By the way it is good you can reconize this in yourself and still deal with your daily life.

If you may have exact bipolar sickness and whatever else I can realize your trouble approximately those emotions. Honestly i could say it is only constant youngster despair. I went by way of the equal factor and feature obvious my peers cross by way of it time and time once more. Although youngster despair is regarded via society to be practically innocent, it FEELS worse than whatever you'll be able to be identified for. Maybe considering that there's no directions, regulations, or recommendation besides recover from it. I take it you are seeing a psychologist? You can speak to them approximately how you're feeling however my concept is to check out your first-rate to not allow it get to you. Get a passion, play a game, hang around with humans. No topic how a lot you do not consider like doing so, you NEED to do it anyhow.

Are you taking any medication?
(Zoloft, Prozac, etc.)
If you prefer to not use medication,
GNC stores have a product called SAM-E.
My family doctor told me about it.
It is a mood enhancer.
I would advice you to see a doctor.
Maybe a hypnotist.
Good Luck.

it sounds like your symptoms are similar to the type of things someone i used to work with suffered from. He was diagnosed with bipolar disorder and felt much better one he was put on medication. Talk to your doctor and see what he says.
hope you feel better soon

sounds like mental fatigue. rest up, exercise more (physically and mentally), and take some vitamins. B vitamins help with the nervous system. If the problems persist then it maybe something else

agoraphobia . perhaps with a combination of stress --- and whatever else --- but don't you go trying to sort it out --- leave it to a professional . that's the best recommendation i could offer --- because other opinions in this situation could be way off the mark . good luck .

Maybe you should go to your doctor and see if there is a medical reason for this.
