How quick I can sell my home after I bought it

Is there gas in the flat? If yes get that checked immediately.

You can sell it the day after you bought it. Just go to an estate agent and ask.them to market it. Tell them what you have told us.

Do this immediately.
I know someone who died of carbon monoxide poisoning.

Thanks for your reply. I feel when I viewed the flat, it does not looks so low with the bulk furnitures inside. But now it is empty and I start to feel a sense of pressure especially in the living room. But that is a decision I made so I can only regret it instead of complaining about it and find a solution

I suspect that you will put furniture into it before you live there, so the ceilings will feel as they did before. Living in an unfurnished house is unusual. The best thing you can do is to move in and spend six months looking for taller ceilings.

By then you will know whether you have been able to cope with normal ceilings, whether you will be able to find extra tall (and harder to heat) rooms, and you'll have the title registered, making it easier to sell. A win-win-win situation!

thanks for this. But there is no gas so should be safe for me.

If they are any, change the light pendants to flush fitting  or bulk head type lights instead?  They might be making it feel lower. 

Re-paint, this will brighten the space and make it feel bigger too.

Go to your GP. Whether it's physical or phycological, it's an issue that may have a solution.
Putting your flat on the market is a bit drastic and you should look at the headache issue anyway for your health.

Surely this is why the NHS is at breaking point. You go to the Dr and say I have had a headache since I moved a few days ago... What do you want them to do with that information?

They are almost certainly going to tell you not to worry until you have had it more than a few days and they will probably attribute it to the move.
Obviously if you are throwing up and stuff due to a migraine that is new they will probably be more inclined to help. I'm not a Dr so by all means go if you need to but people going to the dr's without giving symptoms time to go on their own is a problem.

One issue is you'll need to have a plausible reason to give as to why you are selling so soon.

This reason would put me off as I'd think you are lying if I was buying (not saying you are, just sounds like nonsense as the ceilings didn't get lower).

UK houses as well as being generally poky also have lower ceilings than a lot of countries, especially if you are from the EU

If you have no furniture presumably you are standing up when in the flat, unless you're sitting on the floor.  Once you get some furniture in, your head will be further from the ceiling when you're sitting or lying down.

Give it a while and see how you get on, it could just be stress brought on by one of the most stressful things we do, moving home.
