Why do i get so flustered and spacey?!
Question: Why do i get so flustered and spacey?
Sometimes I think that something might have gone seriously wrong with my brain... I'm 20 and I've been stressed and depressed for over 7 years. Though I have been dealing with things a lot better.
In my last two years of highschool - leading to college, I started noticing a significant decline in my cognitive ability. I get flustered so easily and my thinking is very far a part... it's as if my brain goes through flights and spirals of thoughts to the point where they interrupt my overall performance. My capacity for verbal communication has gotten smaller, I've been unable to read at a fast pace like I used to, I can't write... even forming sentences is taxing for me... I mean, I was never an A+ student, but I've definitely become slow all together. I remember going into an english exam and sitting there for 2 hours trying to figure out what to write. I ended up leaving the exam having written only 4 sentences on the pater.
It's very worrying especially at times when I start talking but all that comes out if gibberish and etc. I dropped out of college after the first semester in order to deal with my health. I've been to my doctor, a psychiatrist and psychologist. All of them simply told that this "slowness" is due to my depression. My doctor refuses to give arrange a CT scan for me or line up further testing. He tells me that I am healthy enough to run a marathon. I really am happy to hear that however, I wish I could trully feel that way. My question is how long will this slowness this last? It's been years... and getting worse. I've become seriously self conscious about it and often wonder if other people think I am just stupid.
sorry if this is long...

Do you have problems remembering things as well? for example why you stood up etc
I think its an undiscovered mental health issue.
