Stress or something else???

A long time ago I went to the movies with my friend and my dad paid our way into the theater and left with out checking to see if it was suitable for us since we were kids. I saw a disturbing part of the movie that disgusted me and it led to panic attacks and frequent uncomfertable thoughts about the event in the movie. 2 weeks later I felt a change in my brain.

My vision was different like I was viewing the world through a camera lens or something. I some how felt drugged in a way. The anxiety left the weird change in me never went away. Recently I was admitted to the hospital after my 5th day of rapid hyperventilating due to autonamic dysfunction, h pylori and acid reflux. As soon as they discharged me I got the same feeling again that I had all those years ago only now its a lot more.

I went to a neurologist and he found a high protein level in my spinal fluid (61) but it was nonspecific. I got an MRI EEG, BAER, EMG and blood tests and they all came back negative. So now I’m trying to find the reason why I have this and it never goes away. I feel like I’m stoned all the time 24/7 or trapped in a dream I can’t wake up from. Not to mention these very weird thought problems I have now where I could be walking down the street thinking about me sitting in a chair and I’ll get a uncomfertable feeling in my mind like I’m unsure of where I really am in space. Its freaky but I have it a lot. I was wondering if anyone had any ideas of what I might have.
