Is it normal to have a fast feeling warning: long read/i promise i'm no troll

i started getting these feelings when i was young. i wanna say 2 to 4 years of age.Anyway i used to get these very often and now that i grew up they had started to subside, but just recently i've been getting them back. my most recent one was about 3 days ago, and i just want to know if anyone has ever had these? please bear in mind that i have never taken any hallucinogenic drugs before. The only drugs i take are maybe some aleve for my knee and some ibuprofen or excedrine for my migranes. Well, here it goes. This was what i felt, the last time i had the feeling.

It was late at night, and i was on the computer reading a blog or something. So i'm reading and reading and all of a sudden, i start reading faster. I keep reading and it only gets faster and faster. Pretty soon i'm reading so fast my brain can't process it. Its weird because I know what i"m reading, but at the same time, i don't. Its going too fast. And not only that but everything is going really fast. I hear everything amplified. The sound of my fish tank filter is moving so fast and is so loud that i can't hear my self think. Actually,NO, you see that's the thing. I can hear my self think, which is very weird and, when i was a kid, terrifying.(when i was small and would tell my parents i heard voices in my head.) Its like my senses are enhanced. I can hear my eyeballs moving, I can hear my organs working. Everything is moving so fast, and I try moving slower to compensate but its not working. Its just like the reading, I feel like i'm moving a million miles a minute but at the same time i know and can see that i'm not moving fast at all, and that's when it happens. I start moving slow. Not normal but slow. Everything is slowed down dramatically. And again i feel it but at the same time, I'm aware and can see that i'm moving normal.

i also had some really horrifying nightmares when i was small. please i know they sound stupid but i was legitimately scared of these:

i was in a blank room. actually i don't even know if it was a room, it was probably just space.anyway, i just remember seeing shapes. a lot of circles and maybe squares, they could have just been lines crossing. but they were just flying around me, and for what ever reason i was freaking terrified of these dreams. i would wake up crying and yelling from these.no the reason i'm including this is because i would get the same kind of feelings i these dreams. the shapes would move really fast and then really slow. and i just thought it might have some sort of connection

So anyway that's it. i'm sorry for the long read and if anyone is still reading at this point please leave a comment and tell me what you think. Again i have never done drugs, and telling the 100% truth. i'm just tired of people looking at me like i'm crazy when i tell them. my fucking doctor doesn't even believe me. he doesn't even pretend to care. again sorry for the long read...

i just don't want to be alone.

    My guess is that your having panic attacks. Read about them. Other then that I hope you fully utilize your psychic potential and fight the evil reptilians that are ruining our world.

    Your doctor is an ass. Get a new doctor, who believes in empathy.

    Not being mean but I think you have a mental disorder. See the right doctor and you can get medicine to help.

    I used to suffer from panic attacks and still get palpitations every now and again, and whenever I do it feels a little like what you've described, it feels like I zone out and yet go hyper aware, really weird.
    I would suggest you talk to a doctor, as like you said, it could be dangerous under certain circumstances such as driving.
    I wouldn't worry too much though

      I've actually thought about this a while ago, and I was considering this being the case. You see, i only seem to get the feeling when I'm alone. And when I was small, my mom and dad left me with my aunt when mom went into labor. I don't remember this much, but my mother tells me i hated when they left, and got really upset. So, since i started getting these around that age, i thought it could be panic attacks.

      The only thing that gets me is that I don't feel scared at all. I am so calm during these feelings, so i don't get it.

      When you got panic attacks, were you scared?

    I feel very strongly that it is definitely migraines..some people even have mini strokes that are followed by migraines. I get weird aura before a migraine. One time I got the weird aura and by the end of it I saw like fan blades moving and big strange gears moving...weird but not unusual for migraine mini seizure/stroke sufferer's.

      yeah i've heard of auras before migranes. My mother says she sees a white light before she gets migranes.The thing is, i don't get migranes after these. Well, as long as i can remember anyway.

      You know whats weird? I didn't notice till today, since it seldom happens, but ever since the last day i got that feeling, my right eye has been twitching every now and then. Kinda scary since my spanish teacher had this before she had a stroke.

        You sure you don't get migraines afterwards? Even up to a week afterwards? I agree, you should see a neurologist and get an MRI just to be safe.

          I'm not sure. I almost possitive that I don't get them right away, but never really payed attention enough to know if i get them a little afterwards.
          I will this time though.

    It almost sounds like synthenasia.Except that you didn't mention that you can taste colors. I recommend seeing a doctor. This doesn't sound normal but very interesting.

        Not just taste colors. See sounds. Hear colors. Smell sounds. Taste sounds. All of your sense are disrupted. Its actually quite fascinating but I don't know anyone personally who has this disease.

    Seek a professional doctor let him recomend treatment or other professional. Sounds like nothing major, but better to be safe!

    I have that weird feeling several times a day, but I've noticed it's intensified a few days before I get a migraine. I get migraines between 1-3 times a month.

    The exact same thing happens to me! I feel high and then stoned several times a day without taking anything. I end up saying some crazy stuff because of this too. Maybe it's something related to migraines because I have migraines too.

      wow very interesting. i suppose it could be related to migranes.

      after you get these do you get a migrane soon after?

    Sounds like a HUGE rush of adrenaline. Doesn't sound usual so I'd see a doctor about it if you feel it effects you negatively in any way.

      it hasn't effected me negatively in anyway, well, i don't think it has. it's more of a curious kind of thing
      the only thing that would scare me would be if i had one of these while i was driving or something where it would be potentially harmful to me or others

    well i cant really help you because thats never happened to me, but you could try visiting a different doctor or a phscologist to have a look. it might just be that your brain percieves time and things in a different way? anyway good luck :)

    I think I was about your age when I developed my super powers to. I can fly, and cook really nice food (whilst upside down)

    Anyway, respect your super power, don't forget with great power comes great responsibility. And
    be careful out there!
