Hey guys I need your comments ASAP please. I was cuddling with my girl watching her show. I was feeling anxious and a little lightheaded then I couldn't hear anything for a few seconds and this happened twice. I'm on my way to the ER now and so terrified I'm shaking and just want to cry.
Is this part of anxiety???
Hi Pink 
Yes, anxiety can do this.
I've had this in the past... Try to pay no attention to it... Easier said than done I know. Anxiety feeds off fear, so do your best to ignore the feelings.
When you do get these, just say to your self, it's anxiety and I am fine, it won't harm me. Do some Mindfulness. I do Headspace and calm.com
These are really good websites and do help to keep things calm
Hope this help
Hugs x
Thanks for the response.
Really it can cause you to lose your hearing for a couple seconds. It's happened a couple more times since I've been sitting here waiting to see a dr.
So scared 
Yes it really can Hun!
It is really frightening when it first happens.
There are so many symptoms to anxiety that it is hard to believe.
I'm reading a book called Stress free in 30 days by Charles Linden.
It has been so helpful, it's helped me see anxiety in a different light. X
It happened once about a week or so ago and I just ignored it but terrified me when it happened today. Just with all the other symptoms I have I can't help but think there's something really wrong with me. I have myself convinced there's something wrong with my heart and now because of this I'm like omg do I have a brain tumor. Gah I just want it to go away
I know Hun it can be a right pain inthe bum
That will be the fear and negativity making you feel like that.
Have you tried CBT?
I've had 2 lots now and would recommend it
It's the best thing I've ever done.
Mention it when you see the doctor.
Xx
Thank you for keeping me company while I sit here in the waiting room playing on my phone and being terrified.
I've been working on a self help program called attacking anxiety and depression by Lucinda Bassett I'm on week 3 of the 15 week program
That's not a problem, I'm happy to keep you company
Oh that sounds interesting, you'll have to let me know how you get on
Have you got long to wait? X
For sure I will let you know how I'm doing with the program. I honestly think it seems to be helping me as my anxiety has seemed to calm down a bit. Blah started to feel all panicky again.
Ummm I think there are 3 people ahead of me
Hey don't worry, take a big deep breathe and exhale slowly. Keep doing this until the feeling pass, and it will
You are safe and you're ok.
I'm here if you need me...
How you feeling now? Xx
Thank you. I did my deep breathing. It's mostly passed still feel anxious and a little weak tho
It will pass Hun, don't give in to the feelings.
It can't hurt you

Yes I've been told many times but when do we actually start to believe it.
I want my old life back well without the anxiety and stress
cbt helped me to believe..made me think in a different way :} x
I'm feeling ok still not completely relaxed and likely won't be for hours which I hate
And yes that's why this program does as well. Changes the way you think
have you tried visualisation ...imagine somewhere really nice, somewhere where you've been and felt happy and relaxed. Now remember how the place looks,remember what you did,remember how you felt.
This works when your in a comfortable chair or lying on your bed. x
Hey I'm so sorry I got busy once I left the hospital.
The nurse there actually listened to me and took notes asked questions was very understanding caring. She's hooking me up with a holter monitor and also counciling
hey
no worries,thats good news donna :}
you know where i am if you want to say Hi xx
Just so you know, if you scroll right down the bottom on this site, underneath communities you will see directories . Look up living with anxiety.
I'm on this forum mostly, but I do pop on this one as well
Thanks for the tip. I will check it out right now.

Private message me when your done,and we can catch up some more.
sending you hugs xxx
hey dude foreal anxiety can cause this ive had it multiple times and my girl freaks out and thinks im dying... but its most likely nothing especially if you know you have anxiety...that's the crappy thing about anxiety once you think you know all the symptoms it causes it gives you a NEW one to make you trip out even more. youll be alright bud just breathe and try ignoring it. The main thing about fighting anxiety is too ACCEPT you have anxiety and know the things you feel are just your anxiety.
Hello pizzi
Thanks for the reply but that's all easier said than done. I'm having a real hard time accepting that it's just anxiety that's making me feel this horrible. Pretty much every day I'm lightheaded dizzy or nauseous or feel so out of it or heart racing.
I just want it all to go away
I'm so scared.. what should I do?
I'm so scared... need advice please
I'm so scared even to sleep because of headache
