Help Me Classify My Weird Syndroms! Posted: 11-03-07 10:23am
I'm not even sure what these are,
exactly... some kind of stress attacks?
syndromes? disorders? Feedback from anyone
with knowledge or similar experiences will
be greatly appreciated...
Okay, so these are four different types of
mild things I go through once in a long
while (about four times a year). These
things don't really affect my daily life,
but I'm just curious if it's just me...
1: Sometimes I go into this phase that
lasts about two minutes, in which I feel
like I have a screaming voice inside my
head. It happens during the day, usually
when I'm alone and awake. I hear
everything, mostly sounds of small objects
such as a paper turning or a pen writing,
as if they are being SHOUTED. AT. ME.
Everything seems much louder, but I am
completely aware that the actual sound is
normal. Sometimes time seems to go by
slower when this happens, and it's almost
as if someone is in my head.... Sometimes
I try to talk as this happens, and it
helps, since the heightened hearing only
happens with objects.
2: I have periods of time when I smell
only one specific smell, not of anything
particular (not good or bad). No matter
where I go or what the actual smells of
the area are, I'm aware of them but only
smell that one smell. If I had to describe
the smell with comparison to an actual
smell, I would say cleaning detergent. But
again, it's not an actual clean smell.
This also happens to me with taste, where
I taste the actual foods also, but that
one taste always remains as a "theme", I
would say. This happens about once a year
and can last for days, usually when I'm on
vacations (not in my home country).
3: Sometimes when people are talking
around me, specifically teachers at
school, I hear what they're saying, but
usually by words and not sentences. I feel
as if I am saying it with them in my head,
as if they are speaking in my head and I
am MOUTHING what they're saying, instead
of paying attention to the index and
meaning of their sentences. I can turn it
on, but if it starts by itself, I can't
seem to turn it off.
4: This last one usually happens while I'm
sick, but it has happened when I was
completely healthy. Also, it usually takes
place once I look at the television. When
I watch a show and this happens, I feel
like something is not right in the image.
Something about the frame of the image
distracts me from the show- it's like a
click in my head that feels wrong. This
also happened once I was driving with my
family around, and I looked at the
scenery. It's an annoying feeling of
helplessness, because I feel like
something if off in the image, but I can't
understand why and what. I don't really
think that it even has anything to do with
what I'm looking at, specifically.
I'm 16 years old right now, and most of
these things started occuring only about 4
years ago.
#1- noticed for the first time while
studying for a test at home, two years ago
maybe.
#2- I don't even remember when this
started, but it occured last when I was on
vacation in europe where it snowed.
#3- Noticed at first 3 years ago during a
school lesson where I couldn't concentrate
at all because of it.
#4- Noticed for the first time last year
when I wasn't feeling well and watching
televison.
Hope you can help me with this brain
stuff.... I seriously don't know why these
things happen or what they are.

No, they don't bother me at all... Like I
said, they only appear for a couple
minutes (most of them) about four times a
year, so it doesn't affect me anyways. I
was just wondering if someone had similar
experiences, but it's not an issue at all
most of the time... It's not serious.

Doctor Internet isn't good at stuff like
this, I'm afraid. It's possible you'll
just grow out of it, or it could be a
symptom of something else. Hey, maybe
you're just special!
If it does get scary or worrying, though,
you really should go to a doctor.
