I had been on top of my anxiety ever since I started taking Citalopram about 3 months ago. I was feeling great, no anxiety, no depression and no panics. This all changed instantly in the space of a night.
I hit my head on the underside of a desk at college on the 6/6/14. I didn't think that I had hit it that hard at the time and felt fine for the rest of the day.
The next day I woke up feeling detached, like I had woke up on a different planet. I felt no emotion, things just felt "off". I was looking at things in my room just not able to connect with them. Kind of like I should feel normal but I don't. I felt distant and foggy. Along with this I had nausea, headaches, and just generally felt awful.
So I go to the hospital to get myself checked out, they check me over and do a bunch of neurological tests and come to the conclusion that it is a mild concussion.
Its now the 15th and I still feel the same way. The detachment/fogginess hasn't gone, not even for a second. Its been 9 days of hell. I still feel sick, I have no apatite, I feel like I cant think as well as I used to. I feel like a different person completely.
I can think back to how I felt before and how "In Touch" I was with everything and now I just feel trapped. I feel so ill it isn't even funny. Im constantly tired no matter how much I sleep and the fog in my head is killing me! Why can't I connect with things like I did, why does everything feel fake!
Is this the concussion? Is it anxiety? Did I do permanent damage to my brain? What the hell has happened to me?
If anyone else has had an experience like this with a head injury or without it please reply. I feel like I'm at the end of the line here.
