confusion, panic, dizziness, eyes seem weird

I really need help.  I'm 21 yrs old and when i was studying abroad i just felt gradually and gradually worse.  Feelings of confusion, panic, easily startled....and just feeling in a fog.  I was also very sick with something later on and ever since i feel 20x worse.    Now my eyes feel like they are crossed and when i talk to someone and look at them, it seems like my eyes get more and more blurry to where i have to look away.  Everything looks dull and it seems like my eyes can't focus to objects correctly.  Besides that, i'm always feeling confused and feelings of being in a fog...like everything around me is going on around me while im not there...occasionally i will get a twitch as well. I can't concentrate on anything nor think straight at all... I had a test that said i had mono but a long time ago(7months ago), but all my blood tests/sugar levels are fine according to doc's.  Now they are treating for depression and im on wellbutrin.  im pretty much at the point where i'm becoming suicidal b/c i can't take this anymore.  I used to love to run, read, and do so many things and i can't do anything anymore.  i've been like this since march and if i remain like this for much longer i cant take it anymore.....i have job interviews and all sorts of things right now.  Somebody help

I see now this site is for medical advice and you should ALWAYS seek advice from a health care specialist.  However, many of the posters and their overall symptoms described, can be the effects of a "Kundalini Awakening".  Yes, I know, I thought the same thing...please look it up on the web if the doctors are at a loss and see if it resonates (beginning with signs and symptoms).   It's just awful to continue suffering without any explanation or available help. Just trying to help and it just very well may.

I am skimming over these comments and see that they are 3 and 4 years old so I hope you have found relief. Some of the people in this thread probably have superior canal dehiscence syndrome. It is caused by a hole in our temporal bone causing problems with cognitive functions, balance problems and vertigo, eye problems and hearing problems. It takes a special CT scan to find it. I wish I could tell all the people who have it and don't know.

Studies,
Are you still feeling better? Was this the cure for you?

You and I have identical symptoms. Mine began when I was about 18 and has gotten exponentially worse (i am now 28). I have had all the same tests and doctors chock it all up to stress. I am absolutely positive that it is not stress and that, as you said, something is VERY wrong. Have you by any chance figured anything else out about your condition? I think the fact that all of these posts consist of identical symptoms, and that all posters have gone un/misdiagnosed, is testament to the fact that there is some sort identifiable ailment. Do you have any further information?
