Extremely Stressful Time, feel angry, confussed, depressed
Posted: 09-18-07 16:15pm

Question: i thought i could narrow down my problem as best i could. i have always been a GREAT reader and comprehender, i have scored advanced in a reading test at my high school(i am a junior) but about five months ago i randomly began over-thinking/doubting my reading ability, FOR NO APPARENT REASON, i then loose my ability to concentrate on the reading and grasping the meaning of the book/paper. Doing this causes me to feel angry, confussed, depressed, frustrated, worried, and other negative feelings. it's like a voice in my head is forcing me to do this...i have tried everything to stop, but im slowly giving up, cuz nothing is delivering me from this chaos. i have no history of mental/health problems either. it has been very hard and it is draining me physically and mentally. So what does this sound like to you? any help would be awesome/extremely helpfull....

I am no physcian. And even if I did think I knew what this was, which I have a couple things I think it could be, I am not allowed to diagnos. Just help if needed to guide you in the right direction.
This might just be something differnet you are dealing with. IMHO from what I have read of you post. If it were me, I would seek counseling ASAP.
You may need to be on a different kind of drug if you are already on any.
I would say, please don't wait on this one. Go get this checked out.

this sounds very familiar.
the thing with not being able to concentrate has happened to me quite a few times.

very often, when i am at work and find myself unable to concentrate - i simply dont. i go for a walk and connect with nature.

often this happens when something is bothering me, and i cannot understand what it is. once i examine my life, or this feeling, it often sheds light onto the nature of my dis-ease.

how is your breathing during these moments?

Yes, it is really frustrating when your strongest abilities seem to fail. I used to be relatively good at every subject and very well rounded, recently, luck has been bad and my grades are dropping. It seems like you lost your "passion/edge" in reading and you're becoming more discouraged as a result. Try to rediscover your "edge". That's my 2 cents!
