So confusing

[dizzychar]

I was in my cbt therapy yesterday and when I first went in I didn't feel too bad, about half an hour in I felt dizzy, blurred vision, shallow breathing, the room was really bright, I thought I was could to pass out. I could hear her talking but it was like it wasn't going in, like I was spaced out, I couldn't wait for the session to be over 😢 I don't no what was wrong with me, I've been feeling so worried all the time lately. I had to get my children from school today and while I was walking I had a palpitation, it felt a little painful and really scared me. Now I have a sore throat and achey, I always feel like I'm ill. Does anyone else?!

Hi dizzychar,  I get like this everytime I attempt cbt therapy.   The push for change  brings on the symptoms I so want to get rid of.   I have phone sessions, but it's not any easier.  I feel myself squeezing the phone tighter and tighter with anxiety.  By the time the session is done, I'm filled with  dizziness, blurred vision and a full clouded head.

So you are not alone in feeling like this.   x
