Face to face debate isn't for everyone.  Some people have a knack for it while others know the answers but just can't get it out.  You may need to become part of a team.  Find someone able to stand up front a be the person that supports them with research and documentation.  Like everyone else, you have value.  Its just not where you're looking.

Do you have a general practioner?  Often they can at least point you in the right direction.  Also, many insurances will cover "specialists" if you have a referral from your family doctor.\n\nOn a side note, I had a similar problem once and I couldn't figure out what started it, until I realized that unconsciously I was placing my feet on the bottom of my computer chair when I sat down to type.  It was causing "welts" that would get tingly when I walked.  Took me about three days to figure out what I was doing to cause it.  Then I felt like an idiot.  ;)

You could be suffering from some sort of Psychosis.  People experiencing a psychotic episode may experience hallucinations, entertain delusional beliefs (grandiose or paranoid delusions), undergo personality changes and may show disorganized or sporadic thinking.  But you should get the professional opinion of a doctor.  \n\nBut it also could be linked with other little things...meaning you could be perfectly fine, but maybe dehydrated or something similar that would cause your body to have hallucinations.  Again, paying a trip to the doctor might be in your best interest. Especially if this seems to interrupt your life in a negative way or if it is worrying the people around you.  In any case, good luck.  Hope this helped!

Go on the internet,learn what you can do to help yourself get out of the whellchair,if there is a chance you could in the future. Go on the internet and join a chat group,it will help keep your mind active or answer questions for different websites,such as this one.There are more,do a search,some even pay you.If you cannot move your body keep the mind active because the mind directs the body. Sorry to hear you are not well,get well soon.

You sound like me. I think it's because we can't stop our brains from thinking to much or it could be restless leg syndrome, they have medicine for that now, I saw it on TV. Not resting your body and losing sleep will shorten your life. You have to adapt to a bedtime routine wind down, watch a nice happy tv program before you go to bed & not some serious or scarry movie. About 8:00 start getting in that mode. Eveybody else will just have to handle there own crap!! You are going to have to take care of yourself if you want to be around longer. Try going to a quiet part of the house, on the porch or walk around outside for a few minutes of me time,. It makes a lot of difference. Take some deep breaths, reflect on the day, read, or just sit there and enjoy the quiet. Watch the birds, butterflys, little bugs and a smell the flowers we forget about those things sometimes. I kinda of clears your head.  Just try it everynight and stick to calming thoughts and don't let yourself get worked up about anything before bedtime!!!!!

Hey I know just how you feel. I am type A personality so i get stressed real bad real fast. I try and find a quite place that i can sit cross legged and place my hands on my knees, I then take deep breaths in thru the nose to the count of ten, hold it for 7, then release it thru my mouth to the count of 10 with my tounge pressed against the roof of my mouth. This helps clear the mind becuase you are concentrating on breathing. All it really is is meditation. Try it and see if it helps.

My lack of a brain at times.

I am doctor, what I should suggest is to consult some psychiatrist rather then general physcian. Once discussing same " thought blocking" illusion with a professor, he advised to have "short thoughts" rather than making big plans. So I would say you must have small plans, short acting plans and things which you can get within hours, days or weeks. This will promote your thinking abilities. Contrary, if you make big plans, your "thought blocking" illusion will be multiplied. ( sorry for spellings as I am in hurry)

You can stop the conscious mind from thinking, but not the unconscious mind.\n\nTo reach that state, you need to clear your mind of whats troubling it.  The easiest (though by no means is it easy) way to go about it is to take up meditation.

A sudden violent mind is only your thoughts.  You don't have to act upon your thoughts.  I hope your mind is strong enough to know right from wrong.  You control your thoughts.  If you have violent thoughts then try replacing those thoughts with peaceful good thoughts.  Every time you have a bad thought think of something good.  Force yourself until it is natural to thing good things.

I totally do this very thing!  I guess turning down the music helps me to think more clearly - I can 'hear myself think'.

If this is suspected, I would take them to the doctor at once!  Any balance abnormalities or lack of normal coordination could be a sign of a serious neurological problem.

yes, because i am falling into a deep state of unconsiousness, known as sleep. i think of important things, which i nearly instantly forget. but i remember they are important. falling asleep is nothing like the way it is presented on television or on the media. the natural way is simply shutting down all organs in your system for utter tranquility and comfort. when i am tired, i tend to do strange things. yesterday, i was exhausted after my 2nd class at school, so i left home without even considering the circumstances. being tiresome completely changes my personality. i wouldnt be the least bit surprised if the same occured to everyone else. i hope i answered your question correctly =).

My sister has this problem too!  It's pretty common - it's something to do with how a woman's mind comprehends spacial awareness (although why my friend, Gary, has this problem nobody knows).  Did you know that most women cannot learn to fly helicopters because of how their brain works?  It's just part of human nature - like how men act like they are dying if they catch a cold.\nTo be honest the only way to improve this is practice.  If you go out and make a mistake don't worry - it's all part opf learning!  Just try again until you improve.  By asking you are doing a sensible thing - like you said most people like to help.  \nIt might be worth stocking upon maps and planning routes before you start out on a journey.  \nIt might also be worthwhile just to go out on random circuitous journeys to get a feel for different kinds of roads and how they relate to maps and directions.\nAnd the most important point - DON'T WORRY  if you worry you will make more mistakes and will not learn as much as if you are happy and confident.\nYou can do it if you believe you can!

There is a time and a place for everything, but too much of anything can make you sick.  Your thoughts are perfectly natural as long as you don't let it consume you and your judgment.  Keep a clear and positive mind that will influence your actions the right way, that way maybe some of your thoughts will become a reality.  Remember belief creates reality.

Yes, i can relate.\nA lot of people go through this. \nYor biggest plus is that you know what is happening to you, and you can then do something about it. You can spend bucks and get help, or you can work it out on your own.\nIt is all in the mind, and it is worse when you are inactive (too much time on your hands )\nA person also sees things that are not real , and you think things that are not really so, and you see them so lifelike !\nWatch out for habit forming pills to make you relax !\nBest is  : get your mind right yourself.\nremember too that a person is a very complex thing, and also we do not die that easily...\nGood luck !
