ANXIETY/lightheaded

[Ash71]

Hello

I need to speak with someone who is going through the same thing as I am. I feel so lightheaded and heavy head. When people talk to me I'm in a daze. I know I built myself up to it from worrying about my health and my dads health. I hate this feeling. I go to work and drag myself.

Hello Ash

You sound just like me...I'm not really good with words but just no that's it's purely anxiety and you are certainly not alone.

Hi

Hi

My dizziness and tinnitus get worse when I'm stressed, this has been ongoing for about a year now. Have you been to see your gp? I've booked an appt to see mine as really struggling at moment

hi jules, went to my gp yesterday, she said im like this because of hypertension.. my pressure is 158/105 surely thats not high enough to cause dizzyness, vision problems, and loud tinnitus.. wow a whole year thats long.. I coudnt cope for a year..

Hi & Welcome

Sounds like you could have Health Anxiety as your anxiety seems to stem from worrying about yours & your Dads health

I suffer with HA even though it is better than it used to be

Have you been & discussed this with your doctor ?

It is not uncommon & speaking to your GP how you feel could benefit you as they maybe able to offer you some help

Anxiety does give us irrational thoughts & a lot of the time it focuses in on one particular thing in your case health , but if you can see them as thoughts not pleasant I know but the less we can fear them it does give these thoughts less power over us & with practice as it takes time the anxiety will get less

Keep talking on here & you will see you are not alone with how you feel which can be a big help

Love

Thanks for the replies. It does help knowing that I'm not alone. I am trying to deal with it. When I feel the tight chest I take a deep breath. The light headed, I take rescue remedy (kinda helps:(. Other then that, I can't sit still because I get this weird feeling in the body like I'm floating. I just want this to go away and hope it will soon!

Hi Ash!!!

I know how u feel... I get the same thing, feeling very dizzy and heavy headed, also always see black dots in my eyes..It's bloody scary and drives me nuts, comes out of the blue even if I don't think I'm stressed.. I've been dealing with anxity and panic attack for about 5 months now my first one came out of the blue when I was just watching tv, honestly I thought I was going to die my partner and mum took me up to emergency..

I just been told I have a panic disorder, and been put on medication haven't started it yet but will get the script tomorrow.. I feel for u but try and keep positive :))
