My psychiatrist is recommending I go to a neurologist and try to get into a Neuropsychologist because of cognitive issues: forgetting words (tip of my tongue, but can't get it out several times a day), not being able to remember if something actually happened or I dreamt it, trouble focusing eyes during depersonalization and anxiety issues.
Does anyone have any experience with this? Any advice?
My symptoms of all of my diagnoses are just skyrocketing and I just got a med switch tonight, but currently the meds have been doing very little (ALOT of meds), and I am losing the will to even try. I'd be fine sleeping all day and staring at the ceiling. I'm not suicidal or having urges to drink, but I'm falling away from myself. When I am not feeling a million miles away from myself I am anxious or crying.
I don't think I'm capable of working full time. I can't even do dishes or remember to eat.
I'm just lost and desperately want more help because I don't have the energy to pull myself out of this. Ongoing since April.
Tomorrow is 18 months sober, so yay. #BipolarDepression #Anxiety #Sobriety #Recovery #Addiction #DepressiveEpisodes #tired #Fatigue #Sleep #CognitiveIssues
