I hate this faint lightheaded feeling I've had for a month now. Never goes away

And just gets worse and worse until I get a full panic attack :(.

Any one experienced this?

Yes all the time . Some days it's slight and other days it's real bad . It's just there , and depending what type of room I'm in it gets real bad and just can't focus as my eyes feel out of whack .

I've been dealing off and on for four years honestly chamomile tea and low dose of xanax helps a lot, how long have you been having this going on?

I had it before for about 3 months and then it went away

But now it came back worse to where I get panic attacks.

It's been about a month now.
