Sudden Symptoms

[ZOO7]

Trying to deal with sudden symptoms-need strategies❤️ Recently out of the blue having been having episodes of sudden panic, light headed, nausea feelings. Can’t figure out the trigger. My day will be going along fine and then wham! I’m like what’s going on! Did I forget to eat? Why am I all of a sudden feeling out of control. Sometimes this is followed by trembling of my body. Sometimes just a achy head. Help. What do you do in these instances?

Hey there! So out of all these symptoms I relate to these the most. Normally when my anxiety gives me a panic attack it is a random burst of nauseousness and light headedness as well and it is terrible. There is nothing I have/do that completely gets rid of the symptoms but I do have some strategies that help it that might help🤷‍♀️ I know when I am nauseous what I do is sip on water constantly and like to have a fan or cool circulation on me. I also take "Stomach settle drops" from target that I keep in my purse and they are great for settling my stomach. I also talked to my doctor when getting prescribed my Zoloft and she prescribed me Hydroxyzine for my panic attacks and that has seemed to be the MOST help out of all of my strategies. It does make me a little more tired but it helps me take my mind off the nauseousness and helps me feel more relaxed so that's the bonus. Hope this helped you somewhat. Good luck!

You are lucky you can take hydroxyzine. I was prescribed that instead of my usual low dose of Klonopin and had a very bad reaction. It was up all night with headache and restless! It was horrible! I wish I could not depend on benzos so much.

Hi Z007, I always make sure that I am well hydrated. That sometimes is all youmay need to quell that sensation you are feeling. As for the nausea, try a stick

of Ginger Gum sold at your local pharmacy. Feel better. xx

I am following . I honestly have the exact things happening . I always try to eat, then I sit down waiting for it to go away It's worse when it happens out in public

I have Valium I can take

It isn't a high dose but it does help . I also try to do something to get my mind to Not think it. Basically mind numbing TV or reading . I'll of course get on FB a read others stuff . When this happens it totally freaks me out especially when I have no idea what made it happen . I'm sorry you are going through this . I know how truly miserable it is.❤

As we age I feel the anxiety and panic are more challenging. I wish you peace and wellness.
