Posted this on advice, but that board is really slow and I wanted your take on this, from a neurological standpoint. When I’m not on psychiatric medicine I cannot understand speech. When people talk to me it’s almost like their language garbles itself up into word salad and I cannot tell when one word starts or ends. I’m diagnosed schizoaffective and OCD, and ever since I was a child I’ve had extremely debilitating migraines with auras, one lasting 30 days and I lost an entire year of school. My doctor has tried many medicines but most days my back is in constant pain and I’m hopelessly depressed. What could actually be wrong with me? I hear whispers, and at night time ambient noises transmute into unintelligible languages. I am also stupidly good with numbers and memorization, my memory of dates, authors, film directors, and random facts is absurd. I tend to have religious obsessions and once stayed in my home for over a year without leaving. Is my mental disorder worse than what they make me think, or are they not even in the right ballpark?
