Apparently, I didn't pass out at all and just laughed it off.
So far so good, but the next day I felt awful and somewhat different from a typical hangover. I didn't think about it too much and thought it'd go away after a good night's sleep. It didn't, so I decided to go to the hospital.
The CT scan was negative, the neuropsychological test was okay. I seemed to be perfectly fine. And yet, I wasn't. Even if I had no headaches, I felt awfully dizzy, somewhat depersonalized, and had a heart rate higher than normal. This kept going for two weeks.
After that, my symptoms were replaced with new ones that persist to this day: mild but bearable dizziness, fatigue, unable to sleep properly at all(I end up sleeping from 11 PM to 1 AM and then not being able to sleep at all until 5 AM), daydreaming, very complex, vivid dreams at night and strange memory problems(I have no problems recalling past events but sometimes I can't tell if they happened yesterday or two days ago). When it comes to solving problems, my mind is as sharp as before, but the issues above make me horribly anxious and not in the mood for anything fun like going out anymore(I can fake it to a degree but deep inside my heart all I want is to be at home).
I'm planning to do an MRI in a week or two, but I'm pretty sure it will be negative.
It's so scary to have no clue what's going on with you, I sometimes think it might actually be something else, like liver or kidney disease(I lost weight really fast during the last three months and this might have something to with my current state).
Also, sorry if I made any mistakes, English is not my native language.
