Sometime the tightness is so severe that it becomes unbearable.Thirty year back i have gone through CT scan brain.but report is normal.i have taken lots of medicine but result is fruitless.please help

Left leg and Left arm unresponsive

I woke up with my left arm and left leg being heavier than my right for atleast 5 mins at 3am in the morning. Its been 5 days since. I could move my limbs but they were extremely stone heavy than right. No tingling or numbness just heavy. I was horrified. I have had a Brain MRI 3 years ago due to anxiety symptoms. It was normal back then. I have had strange symptoms like palm sized pressure in the left side top of my head which happened atleast 7 times last year and then completely stopped. The last pressure episode happened at nov 2025 when I woke up in the morning and suddenly had palm size pressure in the same area with my left index finger and left thumb tingling. It never happened since. However 5 days I had my left leg and arm feeling like it was being pulled stronger by gravity when I woke up randomly at 3am. I am only 22. I have been taking bisoprolol 2.5mg for 3 years due to severe anxiety. That medicine keeps my bp at 104/73, HR at 73 on rest. So far, it's always after sleep.

Inability to Achieve Cognitive Detachmen

Doctor, when I practice mindfulness, I am completely unable to achieve cognitive detachment or the witness state. My awareness gets immediately immersed in incoming thoughts. Could this be related to an altered stimulus filtering mechanism or something like a sensory gating deficit? What is your opinion on this, Doctor?
