This'll be long,but i really need help.for the past about,4 or 5 days, i've been REALLY out of it. im not focused at ALL. and when i am i cant think of anything to talk about,nothing,i dont think of any fun memories or anything.Right after i think of something to write down or to do,i'll forget,and it happens way too much.i havent had anything like this in the past,itsnot stress,its not lack of sleep.Im compleatly bored. I cant even think right now when im typeing this,its really hard. it takes forever to get things threw. Sometimes for 5 mins. i'll just stare off into space thinking of absolutly nothing. then i'll come back to reality and do nothing.i feel like a walking doll. Its really hard to explain. and also,i can barely smell anything,only if its up close. people might say "oh it smells nasty!" or "mmm i smell muffins",and everyone can smell it but i cant. its just very faint. I feel like something isnt connecting,i just cant think,no matter how much i try.I cant focus. When im reading i'll stop and pause for a long time for no reason,come back and read the sentance again,and its hard to focus on the texted books like the black print on white paper. I feel like im loosing my personality.And sometimes my eyes will create tears for no reason,and it makes me sad. Has anyone had this? Should i see a doctor? im only 13...and i told my mom,she thinks its nothing. Could you possibly tell me what this is? I feel so down right now,anything will help. thanks.

If you've been doing both of those, it's time to see the doctor. The thing that concerns me most is the loss of smell--the other problems could be symptoms of depression (which is serious in and of itself) or even just teenage hormones. But once you start having physical complaints along with cognitive problems, it's definitely time to consult a professional.
The worst a doctor will do is say that you're fine (well, worst in the case of whether your mother is right or wrong). And if it is something, the sooner you catch it, the better. [ Daimeera's advice column | Ask Daimeera A Question ]
