Hey,
i am basically posting this here because I
have a weird combination of symptoms that
i'm not sure what are... And I don't
want to freak family out by talking to
them or a doctor just yet.
I've been having these headaches that
arent really painful as much as a feeling
of constant pressure in my head, that sort
of has the same effect because I get
irritated and confused with noises around
me very often and it makes me feel woozy
and dizzy sometimes (not a very normal
thing for a healthy (i hope) 20 year old
male I think...).
That by itself didnt really set off any
alarm but lately i've been getting a bit
worried. I've always been a very
forgetful and absent-minded person so
people sort of jokingly mock it often and
dont really think on it - but I can so
swear it must be getting worse. I keep
completely blacking out on so much, not
remembering important things people say to
me, places I should be, what I was going
to do, etc...
And perhaps what freaked me out the most,
I sometimes find it a bit hard to phrase
things lately. Usually not, but there
have come a few times where I can't
remember really simple words except really
concentrating - words ive used pretty much
daily for most of my life. It isn't
really common or anything, but I started
thinking on it harder when I was watching
this show where a person was made to
recount ten words starting with a letter
as a part of a test to see if they were
okay.
I can't do that... Like ever, now. I
made a test just earlier for the
gazillionth time and it took major
concentration to come up with four words
starting with s, the fifth was a repeat of
one i'd already said, I realised. :s
sort of creeping me out - especially as I
aspire to become a writer.
do I have reason to worry?
Edit: thought i'd add, I guess I have no
specific reason to think these things
related... I'm just listing them for a
general overview. Maybe I just have
alzheimer's or something, if that's even
possible at some age, and acute headaches
to go with it.

or i'm just going insane.
