Words sounding weird?

Question

I've posted on this site before and was a little worried about something, so I thought I'd ask. I have OCD and currently think I have a brain tumor that is making me forget who I am. One day, I said "would you stop doing that!" and it sounded really weird to me; I understood it fine when I said it, but it sounded funny. Now, each time I say that it sounds weird and I'm a little fearful that I'm forgetting how to speak English and this is only the beginning....I find myself repeating it again and again in my head and won't stop saying it until it sounds normal. Any tips or input? I've already addressed my fears of a brain tumor with my GP, who thinks this is all in my head so to speak. Thank you.

Answer 1

People can experience this if they have problems with an area of the brain called the corpus callosum. I wouldn't worry about it, though, unless this is really causing you to lose your ability to connect your words with your thoughts. A general practitioner physician would NOT be the appropriate doctor to talk to about this sort of thing. A neurologist would be.

Are you sure that you talked to a professional about this. This is a form of OCD that needs to be addressed, because actually it is considered a mental illness. This can be controlled with medication. It's some kind of an imbalance. Seek professional help- now! A psychologist or psychiatrist is a better choice for help.
