I feel strange and can't describe it...?

Question

I was drinking a few beers last night and got light-headed and a little dizzy for several hours (kind of 'spaced out' like being high). It was a little difficult to focus on more than one thing, and I kind of felt like my thoughts and vision were foggy. I just chalked this up to the alcohol, but it persisted this morning and throughout the day.

Could this have anything to do with an inner-ear or balance issue? Could it be a result of anxiety or stress (though I'm not sure what the source would be). It seriously feels like I just smoked weed but without the giggles and only a little of the paranoia. Can't concentrate.

Any help would be cool

Answer 1

Did you take some medication that interacted with the alcohol?

Drink was spiked perhaps?

Answer 2

I think u got a hangover.

Answer 3

Hello there,

There are three things you can do to reduce stress in your life.

1) Remove the things that stress you

2) Reduce the effect the things that stress you have on you

3) Change the way you feel about the things that stress you so you aren't stressed by them any more

These are relatively simple to do - the first can involve some significant life changes. The others involve some introspection and thinking about who and what you are - which can be hard work for some people.

Write out a list of everything that stresses you and then notice over a course of a month or so what other triggers there are in your life.

Then sit down and work out a plan about how to get rid of or reduce these stress triggers.

If your relationship is stressing you then you need to talk to your partner or even walk away if it is that bad. If your finances are stressing you then you need to sort them out - reduce your spending, consolidate your debt or earn more money.

You have complete control over your life and whatever is causing you stress you need to change. Stress really can kill you - it increases your likelihood of heart attack, stroke and a whole host of potential problems.

Take control of your life and get rid of the sources of stress in your life.  There's a lot more information on combating stress at http://www.howtostaycalm.com.  I got some good tips from there.
