Matt,
I was reading a magazine a couple of days ago with an article about autism, you describe sounds like autistic thinking.
Obviously this isn't very helpful to you and it's probable that it's clear off the mark. It just struck me that your post described some similarities to the description of what people with autism experience.
I too must echo the suggestion that you get the help of a professional to better understand what you are dealing with. Without knowing the cause (could even be an allergy,) there is no alternative techniques you could try to solve the problem. So get a doctor to help you pin point the cause and then you'll have something to focus on correcting.
