Anxiety symptoms??

I’m really hoping someone can relate with me on this one. So I don’t worry there’s something seriously wrong. But recently before I’ve had head vibration sensations. And it was after I quit taking anxiety medication. So I thought that’s why it was. Well it went away but the last two weeks it slowly came back and thus week is worse. It feels more like light headed and I got dizzy earlier. It gets worse when I drive (where my anxiety came from). Does anyone else experience these symptoms??

I haven't experienced your symptoms but "brain shakes" are a common side effect when terminating meds for anxiety like Xanax or Adderal. This can continue for weeks unfortunately. Docs call this "discontinuation syndrome". Did you abruptly quit taking your medicine? Sometimes not extending tapering off a drug for long enough can cause this. Hope this helps friend. Sorry you're experiencing this!

So i know it’s not the medication. I don’t think it’s anything serious because it happens when I’m constantly thinking negative and or driving
