Hi Cam1994, medication that you may be on can sometimes make you feel this way,

although it is a common cause of anxiety disorder. Being dehydrated can cause that

light headed feeling since the body needs a proper amount of water to function properly. Another reason is shallow breathing. When we are tense we not only clench our jaw but

swallow constantly causing air distress to the upper stomach and chest. Breathing properly is a way to eliminate that spacey head feeling. Over breathing/hyperventilation can also cause that same feeling.

It's all a matter of practicing deep breathing and calming techniques. It is always recommended in seeing your doctor and have your ears checked or other health issues.

I did have those issues at one time and yes it always made me panic in not knowing where

it came from. xx
