Beside the psychological problem, I'm really restless in the body, such as my spine sways; and my muscles/tissues are being irritated so that you have the need to press them all the time. Below I list my symptoms,

mental symptoms:
brooding
hearing voices
intrusive thoughts
fatigue

physical symptoms:
(internal) restlessness
(muscle) irritation & being tense
fatigue

The one solution I've come to is: to hold my breath forcefully for a few seconds before passing out. And then when I exhale, I feel extremely healthier for a few moments. During these moments, there are no hallucinations and no mental fatigue... I also do get a sense of control without the need to brood.

What I want to know is what happens during the forceful inhalation in the brain?
What I experience when holding my breath is a sense of inward pressure towards the brain (excluding trembling and the sense of passing out).

Thanks for reading...
