Hi! Okay So These Past 8 Months Have Been Extremely

Hi!

Okay so these past 8 months have been extremely miserable.

Ever since August 2017, I’ve been having extreme difficulty thinking. The way I would describe is that my internal monoulouge is glitchy. I can’t sustain an internal conversation with myself without the words in my head sounding like they are stuttering or sounding slurred.

This has been coupled with some very odd sensations in my brain. There’s a constant pressure in my head and I have daily headaches. The way I alleviate this pressure is by moving my head back and to the sides, and this produces a cracking sound and feeling in my head. Also, if I shake my head from side to side, I can hear liquid sloshing in the center of my head.

I am constantly fatigued, in pain from my head pressure, and mentally exhausted. This has caused my to become extremely depressed. I have suicidal thoughts nearly every week but I do not plan on acting on these thoughts.

I’ve seen a handful of psychiatrists and one neurologist. I’ve tried several antidepressants and 3 antipsychotics. The psychiatrists gave me the antipsychotics because they believed that this was possibly some latent schizophrenia or thought disorder of some kind. But the thing is I have had no hallucinations or delusions of any kind and I’m perfectly capable of speaking to other people and holding a conversation, therefore, no psychosis.

I’m seriously at my wits end. I can’t continue to live like this. I want my brain to function normally again.

Does anyone have an idea as to what this could be?

I had an eeg and it turned out fine. I also had an mri and it came back clean but I’m hesitant to accept this is purely psychological.

I think I have a csf leak and possibly some pneumocephalus . What do you guys think?

Thank you so much for reading and I am awaiting your responses!
