weird symptoms

I have complex pstd and dissociative identity disorder.

I have some weirdness going on lately. I have been having the symptoms of panic(sans the nausea thankfully) I sweat like a horse,my heart is pounding and I am dizzy,shaky.Sounds like a panic attack..I have most of the physical symptoms,but whatever emotional components are just not there.I am calm as this happens.
My emotions are deadened,and totally out of synch with my body freaking out.It makes no sense.I wake up at night wet with sweat shaky and my heart pounding like a night terror,but I have no memory of what I was dreaming,and again the emotional part is missing.

Has anyone else dealt with this sort of thing?

No primitives at this bonfire yet, but I'll check later.

That person, and I use the term loosely, is one massive trainwreck.

Coach, considering some of the other things that this WOS has posted in the past, it's tame.

subway cat being weird

How can you tell? That's its normal state.

Sounds like abnormal Tachycardia episodes to me. From the things I remember reading about UP, she fits the profile.

Well, after fifteen hours, a sympathetic primitive finally showed up:

1. I used to have something similar... but not quite the same.

I spent years in that deadened state, and during that time, if I encountered a trigger, I would have that response you mentioned. Heart racing, breaking a sweat... and I could feel the adrenaline surging... when this would happen, I initially wouldn't feel any emotion in connection to it, but soon after I would get very angry, raging almost. So for me there was an emotional component, it was just delayed.

I hope the subway cat didn't waste fifteen hours hanging around, waiting for a horde of primitives to respond.

When you impose on the taxpayers to pay for surgeries to remove buckets full of organs that normally stream hormones into your bloodstream, then add various chemicals through prescription drugs and illegal substances, you might have some strange feelings. If you combine that with a brain that has apparently been deranged from birth, anything could happen.

This is actually remarkably lucid for UGP - thus Weird.

Yeah, and when she finishes this life, she's got 8 more to go.  She better buy a gun with a big clip.

I've decided that I'm no longer going to make fun of UGP's delusions of being a cat. Earlier today I remembered that I too once had what some would call a delusion. I went through a phase where I swore that I was Marshall Matt Dillon from Gunsmoke. Looking back now I can see how insane it was, but at the time it seemed so real.

Thankfully for my 4th birthday my parents bought me an erector set. It occupied my mind, and I was able to put my marshalling days behind me.

Actually, I have the same symptoms due to high blood pressure and the medication they have me on for the 6 screws in my back. If ya don't pay attention you can really screw up!

Miss one or double up on another and don't realize it, and it wreaks havoc with normalcy.

ETA (chances are this stupid bitch is in never, never land, so often, it's 'probly pretty easy to forget which med she took last and when. Hence her trip thru OZ, Dorothy, Toto, the Scarecrow, the Tinman, the Lion, the Wicked Witch of the North and "Mister Wizard", happens quite often.)

So you're the one who would enact Marshall Law! :tongue: :fuelfire:
