Hello I'm Laura and i could really use some advice/help!
I'm 20 years old and after joining this site i have come to the conclusion i think i suffer from derealization /depersonalization. I have had these kind of symptoms since i was about 15 and never knew what it was....i was told i had M.E around the same time so i just put it all down to that.
I have always suffered from headaches also so have just dealt with the fact im a 'headachey' kind of person.
My symptoms have worsened recently and i am very worried there is something medically wrong.
I have begun to feel more tired/lethargic than usual (which i agree could be put down to my M.E as that can sometimes never go away, just resurface).
I have also been having more regular pains in my head - rather than actual lasting headaches its a pain here and there that last a minute or two but i do get them everyday. I'm also feeling quite nauseous. I am very worried i have something wrong like a brain tumor.
I have also been getting pink and needles and weakness quite often as well.
I am getting to the point of being scared of going out places especially on my own as i am scared i will have a panic attack and the feeling of not knowing where i am or feeling real is the most scary thing i have ever encountered. I swear im feeling like this more every day and just try to deal with and tell myself that im ok. I get the feeling of confusion a lot also.
I feel like everything is just getting on top of me and that i am making myself worse by constantly thinkng and worrying about all of this.
I really dont know what to do :(
