Brain damage
Hi, i’m worried about a phenomenon that occurred sometimes when i talk to people. It can be about something super simple and usually it is and my mind suddenly disconnect and i have a hard time grasping the concept of what we’re talking about. It worries me because before being diagnosed with bipolarity i didn’t have that issue. And i heard that psychosis and mental illnesses in general was the cause of brain damage. Could it be the case here? Or am i worried over nothing?
Hi @chemeli. Psychosis and metal illnesses can cause brain damage but I wouldn't worry about it until you talk to your doctor about it as it may be nothing big and just something simple. I can understand your worry though. It is scary going from being fine to struggling to grasp content of a conversation. That being said, I wouldn't worry about it until you see what your doctor says. I wish you best of luck!
