I have had symptoms very similar to this. Have you spoken to a doctor about it? Is thee a reason you may feel like this and has it just started or an ongoing thing? I hope you feel better soon. Take care.

A www sweetie I know how that feels too, I have two girls and I need to get better for them which just adds to the burden eh? Is there another doctor you could see at your surgery and explain you didn't't feel the other one was very helpful?

I find writing down my thoughts and feelings helps clear my head sometimes and helps me see things in a different light, it's very therapeutic. Maybe you could try that, or a support group in your area?

Either way I hope you get the help and support you need. Take care. Here if you want to talk.

See the docter but also try and get to the root of the problem , when did this start , did something happen that day , stressful event etc and why it made you feel that way . Go back to that place and make it a postive experience and change the negative thought that you remember , drugs just tend to mask anxiety , dealing with the cause heals , I hope you all the best !

I get all those feelings except for the swaying but many many anxiety sufferers experience it.

The feelings are really scary and I am trying my best to just accept them and let them be as this is apparently the best method for recovery not being bothered by them but it is so so difficult.

I hope you feel better soon. :)

Just a thought ,did you feel as if you were drunk but hadn't had a drink when your legs went.If so I would ask doctor about Ataxia.not many doctors know about it as there are different kinds and that's how my daughter goes when she has an attack.Docs put it down to stress for years unti ANeuro Doc who recognized symptoms saw her.
