I can't think clearly!! !!

Does anyone else. Have this problem?

I am avoiding a diagnosis but I have been actively, hallucinating every day and having psy phenomenon every day for a *long time* but i was switched to clonazepam so it is helping a bit. Alongside I am feeling a sense of 'degrading' mentally for a year.
I think it's because I never got real help for my autism IE SPEECH THERAPY.. So I became schizophrenic-like, but grounded enough to not be fully insane. SO I'm basically psychic..

I realize that this is going to sound way too simple, but perhaps you aren't getting enough sleep. Try getting more sleep to see if that helps. You may also be drinking too much coffee, which will interfere with sleeping, so cut down on that before bedtime. Also, check with your doctor about your prescriptions. Some meds can interact badly with each other. Or you could just need an adjustment in dosage. Or a particular med may be wrong for you. My mother was on a cholesterol drug that caused her to have vivid dreams and nightmares, and started causing cognitive problems. I had to go and wake her up a few times to stop the nightmares.

So, check with your doctor about your meds, your unclear thinking, and your hallucinations, and get some sleep.

Not being able to think or hallucinations?...........I guess I would say I sorta have both those issues moreso the not being able to think, especially under stress as for hallucinations I get more distortions but not exactly full on hallucinations except when I was on anti-depressants I am sure the whispering would have gotten clearer if I had kept taking them.

But yeah to be honest I am actually getting frustrated with the not being able to think thing, seems like kind of a recent issue.......I mean I've noticed Its extremely difficult for me to even pick a movie to watch out of a whole stack let alone trying to make more complex choices or plans I mean I have always been a bit slow but it seems that's been increasing. I mean It's like i literally have no preference for activities and might end up doing nothing if the stress of choosing which activity I would prefer gets to me and I know I have not always had this issue to this extent.........So unfortunately as of rather recently yes I have that problem.

As for the visual distortions that could just be all the psychedelics I've done.....but consists of lights at night having a larger than normal glow around them sometimes with more colors than one would expect so lights at night look to me more like they should look if you're tripping but it does not bother me that much. Other then that sometimes I have the slight moving of walls/ground/floor effect which can be irritating but usually does not bother me. But other then that on occasion before i ever did anything like that and still I sometimes feel presences that aren't there and on very rare occasions have seen what I've perceived as spiritual beings but I cannot say for sure.

Yes she suggsted a mood stabilizer.
I am taking clonazepam ativan and wellbutrin and the benzos are calming my mind and agitation and the wb is making me think clearer and help me stop smoking but at the same time the dopa level is very fragile so as i take the wb as it builds up it just causes the memory problem again and hallucinations.

I found i tend to NOT smoke nicotine when i am extremely depressed but need it at least 1 cig a day to FUNCTION or save my IQ

I've never done hallucinogens except weed but all this happened before that i ever tried it anyways..

i am thinking of quitting uni because i cant think enough to make art any more and it is not worth getting this degree anyways.
but then what can i do.. i am basically educationally qualified for office jobs but IQ qualified for below.minimum.wage jobs

im stuck in a mix between EXTREME crying depression, violent agitation, and braindead

my shrunk does not KNOW the EXTENT of my mental health i need a new evaluation

also i sleep A LOT
