I needed to get this out there.  I have not found anyone with the same issues, and it scares me.  I have generalized anxiety, dysthymia, and social anxiety.  I also have add, and some obsessive problems.  I've been a pretty high functioning person, and 2 years ago i wouldve considered myself to be very intellectual.  I had really great drumming abilities.  My life was far from perfect, as i'd had anxiety for as long as i could remember, and didnt have a whole lot of friends.  But I had a future.  I knew drumming would provide me a fulfilling life, as it was my passion.  But at the hieght of my abilities, I tried a few drugs which shouldnt have had any type of permanent effect on me.  Salvia Divinorum which is just a legal smokeable herb, kava kava, alcohol, marijuana, and a whippit.  Everyone else at the party was doing the same things, and i should say, a lot higher quantities.  I ended up loosing my drumming abilities the next day.  I mean, I could still play simple stuff, but nowhere near the abilities i had before.  After about 6 mos. of no drugs, I tried mushrooms.  And not very much.  I only tried a stem or 2.  I got permanantly fucked up from that.  Ever since that day, I've processed thought much more slowly, I've had dazed vision, and am unsteady.  I bump into stuff all the time.  Now every little drug i take, like even tylenol pm, alcohol, whatever, affects me very adversely.  I get more unsteady, and my dazed vision gets worse.  My eyelids get really tired.  This carries on for weeks afterwards, and may be permanant.  I think it is, as I have steadily gotten worse since the mushrooms.  It has been a year.  I now cant focus at all in school.  If i graduate next month it would be a miracle.  I just hope other people now know they arent alone.  Noone can tell me what the problem is.  I've gone to doctor after doctor.  I'm just going to take things one day at a time, and not worry about achieving any goals i used to have.  Life is all about just taking it ez, and hopefully allowing my body time to heal up or get bad enough for doctors to diagnose the problem.
