"fast Feeling"
Posted: 09-04-06 07:49am

Iv posted this under mental conditions but am clueless to what may be causing this.
I am 20 years old and for at least the last ten years I have been getting what I used to call as a child "fast feelings".
They do not occur very often at all (more so when I was younger, probably only once or twice a year now).
Its a symptom thats really hard to explain but i'll try my best. Basically its a wave of adrenallin that feels my brain. However im not bouncing off the walls or breathing fast, or anything like that. I can feel my body and thoughts moving at normal speed but on a subconscious level it feels like everything is moving a mile a second.
For example, if I move something in front of me, I know logically that it is moving at normal speed and I can even see that it is, but psychologically it feels like a huge adrenalin rush where everything is moving with great urgency.
The only thing that I can think of when linking the each experience is when im concentrating on something particular (often when I am drawing).
I am not worried at all about it - watching tv, or reading usually stops the feeling in a few minutes, and its not frequent at all. I was just curious if anybody had similar symptons or could tell me what it could possibly be.

I hope I explained it well enough, like I said its a very strange feeling to explain.

I used to have those feelings too. Turned out to be a form of vertigo. Doc put me on meclizine to help and it works great whenever I feel it coming on.

Hmm.. Mostly when I was younger, escpecially when I was laying down with my eyes closed, I got a mental picture of something moving encredibly fast in first person. A small rush of... Thinginess.

That happens to me too, sometimes, completely randomly i'll get a rush of adrenaline, and in my minds eye I see something rushing really fast towards me and to my left, sometimes enough to make me jump and feel a little nervous. I never really thought of it as being anything strange because I grew up with it.
