And there are often times that I suddenly wake up feeling very hungover but without the headache and the day before or hours before or sometimes days before is very blurry and hard to remember, not completely forgotten but vague. It really really is like I had been drinking copious amounts of alcohol though I didn't. And after those episodes I feel very mentally exhausted. Other times it's like watching a movie being fast forwarded and everything is speeded up and it's a horrible feeling I've experienced since I was a child after being very feverish one time. That doesn't happen a lot however and it's been months since it happened. And it usually only lasts for minutes to an hour maybe. Thanks again!
sorry...just another thing...
I also do not know if you are on medication. As medications can make you feel like this. This would not then be dissociation.
..but just saying...if there is something noticed that medications have a part in...and their not telling you about it. ..and they find something wrong. They will automatically give you a diagnosis of psychosis. It protects themselves. Its a sad thing of how the system works, but its true.
They will rarely give you a diagnosis of psychosis caused by medications. Though they had to put it in the DSM they do not follow it. You simply will get a label of psychosis.
Thanks for this!
