 Very disconnected.

Does anyone else feel the way I do?
I used to be able to speak well in public settings, or even stand other people...sober people.
Not sure if it is because I've done a lot of strange drugs, such as dissociatives, but I feel much "different" than others.
Like a few days ago I went to the store, took me forever to find everything I was looking for, then as I waited in line I started feeling extreme rage build up. Not sure why, I just felt very uncomfortable and angry while standing there in the store that busy day. Many people were there at the time.
I can talk to people I like, but even then my words are very very strange now...my words make little to no sense even when I try to explain the simplest things. The only reason you can understand these words is because I'm typing them and I have time to think of what I'm about to say.
But in a conversation situation, I'm either speaking non-sense or just mute.
The bad thing is, I'm aware that I'm speaking gibberish yet I continue any way.
It is very hard to explain, it just seems like most of the time my brain chooses very odd ways of getting out what I want to say. Sometimes I'll be talking along, going on with a conversation, then the next word I need to say doesn't exist...in my mind.
I just can't find the right words anymore, like my vocabulary has been depleted immensely.
I used to be great at speaking, knew a huge array of words and can still spell just great, I just have trouble getting the right words out so I say something else that doesn't fit in the sentence.
Anyone else suffer this ailment? either public settings or just speaking crazy? Thanks.

What you're describing is a type of aphasia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aphasia
It may be a symptom of serious neurological illness, get yourself checked out.

I know what you're saying. I have a tendency to feel like that at times. Not to a severe degree, knock on wood, and I don't really get angry if I have to stand in line or whatever the case may be, definitely not happy though, just, fuck it type attitude in a way, I dunno.
What really made me post here though, is because I DO have a lesion on my brain and it's roughly in the same area that diagram on wiki showed. Hmm...what ya gonna do? It's not cancerous so they don't wanna go digging around unless they have to. Ah well, bowl hits 
You might want to get an MRI or Cat Scan dude. You might not be trying to hear that, and I doubt you've got anything bad goin on, but that's how they examine brains for the most part. Tell me, are you stoned when this feeling comes over you?

Not to be a buzz kill or anything but what he described is a textbook presentation of aphasia (although it is frequently accompanied by agraphia - inability to write). The rage could be a symptom of either a psychological or physiological underlying condition. Or it could just be generalized frustration and all of it means nothing. But if it is physiological it could be pretty serious.

Happens mainly sober, actually.

Yea, I still have a terrific vocabulary, yet it is very selective now. I used to be able to come up with simply amazing sentences...would just baffle people, but now my mind much to selective, it picks out strange words or can't find the word at all. I am lucky to actually say what I want and have it understandable to other people.
Feel kind of like an alien...my brain is fucked up!

I also recently experienced something that was very similar to a seizure...if not a seizure.
The story on that is in this thread.
Seizure Thread.
Maybe the foggy mind and seizure-thing are connected?
