Ive Lost My Mind!
Hey everyone.. I posted here a while ago about memory issues.. and I had a really good response.. helped me a lot.. but now they have gotten to a very very severe point.. and im starting to completely freak out once again. Here's just a few examples
I have no idea what i did this morning.. unless i really rack my brains.. and remember i went to class... but it seems like weeks ago that I went to class. Then After class is a bit of a blur.. I know I went to lunch.. I dont really know what made me decide to go there etc...
I had my friend over to my dorm room.. we talked for an hour.. I dont really recall much of the conversation.
I NEVER remember when things happened.. yesterday feels like a DECADE ago.. I never know who ive talked too and stuff.
If someone brings up a specific event like "remember doing this?" .. of course i remember.. but i dont remember when it happened.. specific details.. unless someone reminds me of those too.
Am I going absolutely insane? im freaking out.. i dont want to forget everything.. HELP ME

you will get there one day,the brain sorts itself out in the end,but you have to make changes to your life,also there may be some different little quirkiness left in your personality,im not talking a mad psychotic quirkiness but you might seem standoffish to other people,some people might call you a bit strange at times,they wont meeen it in a nasty way but this illness tends to make us very nervous,and if youve ever seen a nervous cat they are often reffered to as 'a little scatty' well thats what kind of happens,weve become so immersed in ourselves that we maybe become a little scatty,but that adds to character in my oppinionSoulBrotha said:^ you know that made alot of sense
the thing is, if part of my problem is my past drug use, than even if i do that, do what you did or something similar, i still migt not recover, because if i did something to f--- up my brain chemistry than ive dug myself into a very deep hole.
