Hi Aazz, Oh can I relate. My head always had that lightheaded feeling, fullness, spacy feeling but not true vertigo. It's probably one of the things that concerned me the most. I need to be in control and that feeling makes me feel venerable.

Aazz, I get it now and then. I actually had it a couple weeks ago after talking with someone. I had forgotten to breathe while talking. Knew what it was but still didn't like that feeling.

Yes when I am really anxious I start to go dizzy this bothers me the most, I can handle the other symptoms but this I can't. It's does calm down after I stop panicking, so annoying.
