Memory Loss and Insomnia due to stress or drug abuse?
I am 22 and am having serious memory loss and insomnia...I have begun to notice some things of concern and I am pretty sure I know the cause, I just am not sure what to do about it. I have been under serious stress, I just recently got a divorce from a physically abusive husband, lost my house and job, and had turned to drugs... Mostly pills, pot, potpourri, and a few other things I had tried... Well now that I have quit, and its been awhile I cant remember anything recent. i will forget what day it is, and what someone is talking to me about. i will forget arguments, conversations, movies new ones in theatre even .. I cant remember what I read, I have to go back several chapters and re read them.. I can remember long term stuff, but anything recent is a strain. I feel ditzy around people, I get words mixed up, and its hard to concentrate. I cant seem to sleep anymore either. I wake up with such an empty sick feeling. hollow... A feeling of complete dread will come over me and will remain with me the entire day... Like I have nothing left to offer, I will wake up in a cold sweat and my heart will be racing, or I will be on the verge of sleep and suddenly feel like I am wide awake and panicky.. like the walls are closing in and I cant breathe. Is it the affects of the drugs I had done? Or is it stress and blame from a marriage that failed? Just seeking advise...I had gotten into X for awhile, I had been doing molly and going to the raves and stuff... I tried speed only once... But I mostly was doin vics, bars, and smoking alot... I got real messed up from the potpourri though, and long term affects of it are not known very well... Like I tried a new kind like best on the market and I was hallucinating and thought I was going to die.. My heartrate was off the charts, I felt like my jugular veins were bursting from my neck and I felt disconnected from my body.. Like I did not exist.. My body was there but I wasnt. It seems like it started happening right after that more and more.. I think everything combined together and everything I have been going through just adds to everything.. The worst is my memory though, concentration. I use to read and write lots of poetry, and draw Now I just feel so angry and bitter and hurt... I feel like I am going backwards instead of forwards. As everyone takes a step ahead, I am taking two steps back.. Trying to put back the missing puzzle pieces of myself.. I just would like advise or if anyone else has or is going through this as well...
