Good Luck, keep us posted.
I’m hypoglycemic, for what its worth.
Regardless of what happened, you should see a doctor. And then start eating decently and getting enough sleep. Your mother was right, it will keep you healthy. Keeping some sort of decent energy bar, or even a decent trail mix, on hand at work for when you are stressing out and “too busy to eat” will at least keep you together.
Hope everything checks out fine. (lunchtime for me, I’m getting muzzy headed…)
I had a similar thing happen to me during a maths exam 20 odd years ago (when I was at high school), a short while into the exam I looked up at the clock and thought I only had 5 minutes till the exam was finished and I tore through the test and finished it. Then I realised I had an hour to go till the exam was finished, I carefully went back through my paper and re-did every question - and came up with the same answer as when I’d rushed (I failed the exam completely). I don’t remember anything else about the day in question, but the next day (or a few days later) my face swelled up and I couldn’t go back to do the other exams. I never went back to school again, after that I had something “wrong” with me and would collapse [without blacking out] nearly every morning. For years I’ve been convinced (no medical evidence) that I had a breakdown due to stress from bullying. I’ve had “episodes” of OCD, and suffered from depression ever since …

**interface2x **, it’s been a few days, did you find out anything from your doctor?
</slightly worried>
I agree with elfkin. interface*, how did the appointment go? I’m practically your fiance, and I demand details!

Wow, people care 
I went over there and got some tests done and it’s official - We have no idea what happened because I’m quite healthy! My doctor said that, at this point, since all of my tests are normal and I seem to be perfectly healthy, we can’t really predict exactly what happened. Our best guess is what my stepmother had suggested - a hypoglycemic reaction brought on by stress. As long as it doesn’t happen again, I should be okay. The doctor said that if it does happen again, I should go immediately to the emergency room to have my blood sugar checked and then get me into an MIR. But, in the absence of any real idea of what happened, I should just go on my merry way.
Ever since, I’ve been sharp as a tack, so all’s good so far!
rrr … that’s MRI, not MIR. I don’t think they’re planning on getting me to any Russian space stations anytime soon.
The tack is duller than I thought :rolleyes:
Thank you for replying. Otherwise I’d be picturing you out cold next to your computer, unable to log on and receive the invaluable support and medical knowledge of all us Dopers.
Or something.
Glad you’re okay.
I need to bring up one more possibility that hasn’t been mentioned so far. This sounds exactly like de-personalization or de-realization (two words used to describe the same thing). It is often experienced by people who suffer from anxiety disorders. Anxiety disorders are often seen in people who suffer from depression, which you mentioned you have.
De-realization feels exactly like you are living in a dream. You know you aren’t dreaming, but you can’t quite seem to snap out of it. You are aware you are are not functioning to full capacity, but try as you might, you can’t quite pull yourself back into feeling normal. For some people sound can seem muffled, or they feel all foggy-headed or far away from the real situation they are in. Memory is very commonly affected, sometimes as in almost a “how did I get here?” reaction, or “what was I just doing?”. It can last anywhere from only a few seconds to hours. It fades away on its own, and suddenly you feel normal again.
This is often brought on by stress. Like having an anxiety attack, you may crave rest afterwards, and then feel normal. Just a thought…
