It means medicine doesn't really help anything, it just delays the inevitable.

I suppose.. But now I've got another worry, which is me hallucinating.

I think I am because at night, sometimes when I close my eyes if I open them, I'll see something weird on the wall or ceiling. Normally, it would just be my eyes playing tricks on me, I understand that. But the things that I see are really weird, like a spider on the wall (it used to be that whenever I saw a spider on the wall, that wasn't really there, I'd see one within the next 24 hours. Thank God that stopped), but it goes to a floating head (not as scary as it sounds, just the only way to describe it), to seeing what looks like a box of cereal, a box, and just other things like that.. After I look more closely I can see that it's not real, and it slowly fades away and disappears.

So is that my eyes playing tricks on me, or a hallucination?

Well, these don't seem like ordinary, everday symptoms. Now, I'm not a doctor, but from my limited medical knowledge, some personal experience, and a little bit of your history, it sounds as if this is mostly a manifestation of your own mental torment at the moment. The mind has incredible control over the body and how it acts; merely thinking you are sick for a period of time can make you sick. If you've been dealing with stress and angst at you problems, and been so openly suicidal as to declare it on the global net, I'd say the root of your problems are mental, not physical. Most of your physical symptoms could easily have psychological roots. You'll need to see a doctor pronto to deal with some of the more serious symptoms, such as your acid reflux and reaction to the medication, and if I'm right, you'll need to see a shrink. Remember, when it comes to your health, your opinion is the most important: the doctors have had years of medical training, but only you know how your body works. If you suspect a problem, it is your perogative to get help, and to get the problem fixed. These hallucinations worry me too. They aren't run-of-the-mill symptoms, even for stress. It's kinda hard to know just from the posts here, but I think you're dealing with greater mental turmoil than I or even you may realize fully. See a doctor. Soon. You don't want these symptoms to become more severe, or increase in number.

What the real question is:
Why are you on a forum that's mainly about Zune Discussion/Development asking for medical help?

This is the wrong ballpark.

I guess he was having a panic attack when he first posted this thread. When it happens, you just panic and you may jump to conclusions so fast that you need advices and all...

My first reaction if I was having a panic would be to consult the first human near me. Not some internet community.

Atrocious, dear, don't criticize him; this is not the place for that. If you're not going to him, don't post.

They're called panic attacks, when you get the weird feeling, DRINK WATER a lot of these are symptoms of dehydration, you might be dehydrated and not know it. Also sounds like you should visit a psychologist/doctor if that doesn't work. But soda is bad for hydration, use water. Not too fast though.
IF ALL FAILS SEE A DOCTOR

Well I've been seeing a psychologist/doctor for a few months. I'm on 80mg Prozac (told to do 60, but I boosted myself up to 80). I haven't had panic attacks in a long while.

Also, thanks for the advice. I'll drink water if I ever have another panic attack.
