is it normal to be depersonalised, feel like you can't communicate properly and have headaches from Hashimoto's disease??

Actually, I was thinking more of Hashimoto's Encephalopathy.

Might not be temporary.

Can be treated with corticosteroid/immunosuppressants.

thank you all for responding,
and yeah that's how i feel like all that time AR-10, its nice to here from someone else. Though I mean by depersonalisation that I just can't be normal; I struggle to talk to people in my personality, if that makes sense?? And about the depression thing, thank you, but i don't feel i feel depressed, I just feel like deconnected from everything. But i don't know is that a sign of depression?

thankyouxx

I forgot to add, the "brain Fog" I refer to is a temporary condition and goes away when your TSH is brought back to the proper level.

"Hashi brain" is a new term to me, and you won't likely find it in a medical journal. :)

Perhaps chigirl29 and I are talking about the same thing.

I have hashi's and I am also hypo.  I think what you are talking about has more to do with the low thyroid, but all that comes with depression, too, which is caused by the thyroid disorder.  I would talk to your doctor about depression and maybe getting on some sort of medication for it.  I know that is something most people do not want to face, but there is no shame in having it.  It just needs to be dealt with.  Maybe you  could benefit from being on an anti-depressant.
