Sometimes I have trouble remembering names, I often lose my train of thought in the middle of a sentence. I often feel very spacey, have an inability to focus and concentrate. It even gets to the point where I feel almost “high” and my surroundings seem to become almost surreal. I also often hear ringing in my ears and feel weak. My words seem to tumble out like dominos, my speech is sometimes slow and I have a difficult time using simple words when I’m talking, however people around me seem to notice nothing. Some days it doesn’t affect me much, but most days it is bad enough to interfere and I’ve noticed it most in the last half a year, ever since I moved. I hear that it is often associated with depression and I don't think that I suffer from that.
I'm 23 years old and I don't know what to do or where to go. I am in desperate need of help, can my doctor give me advice? Would he even know what I was talking about if I referred to “brain fog”? Who should I go to, to diagnose the problem. can anyone help me?! I don't have much money and have to rely on what my health insurance will cover, or what it affordable.
