Ok.. for the last month I've been experiencing bouts with a monster of a headache.. the source of the pain is in the left frontal lobe, behind my eye. It usually puts be to bed because it's so intense.. I've never dealt with headaches like this that weren't (seemably) sinus related. Then there are bouts where my body feels as if it's having a panic attack without my brain telling it to. I will get dizzy, break out into a sweat, shaking, my heart palpitates, and then I lose my breath and the harder I try to breath, the more dizzy I get and then I see black.. this can last as long as 30 seconds.. I never completely pass out. And then there is the fatgue, being a person of endless energy, I wake up exhausted ever after sleeping through the night for 11 hours.

I'm not stressed. I'm not depressed. I eat healthy, avoid most sugars. I drink one cup of coffee a day and drink two liters of water a day. WHAT IS GOING ON WITH ME??!! The soonest my doctor could see me is in two weeks. I am on zoloft, 25 mg.. Acelovir.. and yasmin.

I'm 28 years old.. Does anyone know what this is??

Migraines, my friend. Those sound like bonafide migraines. You need to go to a doctor who can prescribe migraine medicine to combat the pain.

Um, by the way, isn't Yasmin a birth control pill? Why are you on that, being male?

If the meds you are on are recent, they too could be the cause of the migraines.

I think this has happened to me before...

Is it when everything just suddenly looks a lot darker and flashing black? And at the same time your body just feels completely useless and weak and its like you're being weighed down to the ground?

Maybe you need to try a different SSRI besides Zoloft? Or maybe you ARE depressed... Depression doesn't mean that you're just sad or anything, it also means you feel weak and lose interest in your life and whatnot.

Maybe you have some anxiety thats causing it? Do you tend to worry a lot?
