Weak and dizzy

Hey I'm new to this. I've been suffering from health anxiety for a few months now, constantly worrying about physical symptoms. My arms and legs have strength but feel weak I don't make sense but I just feel weak ando dizzy all the time. Does anyone else feel or know why this is happening. Would be very grateful tlike thanks x

Hello megan06

I'm new to this too - only joined recently - I'm not a medical expert or anything- just wondering if you drink enough fluids cos I know dehydration can cause symptoms like these. There are an awful lot of really nice members on here that have given me advice and support so I hope like me - you stick with us because knowing there are people who are experiencing the same or other problems - somehow makes us not feel so alone or even afraid anymore . Cheers for listening. Elle

Ive been feeling dizzy as well. Feels like I'm drunk or I'm on a boat. I know its frustrating, but the more you think about it the worse the symptoms get. Try not to think about being dizzy.

Hi Megan Im exactly the same as you with the shakiness and dizziness and have been told anxiety is the cause for me. Have you had a check up with doctor just to put your mind at rest which can help with the worrying and explain your dizzy? I have found my breathing makes me more dizzy and try to do deep breathe exercises and also meditation to try and relax. The dizziness does hang around and its not nice. Try to keep yourself hydrated too as been dehydrated can make things worse. Hope you start to feel better soon.

Got the same symptoms. Try to stay positive as much as possible. What has helped me is trying to keep up with my regular schedule in spite of the dizziness and weakness. Distraction does help. I do sit and rest some throughout the day but then I get back up. This will not kill us, we will get better.

Hi was your head hurting from this as well ? Or was it just the dizzy feeling ? I had this yesterday and my head was hurting too so I thought I needed sugar , today I feel just kinda cold and a little shakey . I also have Heath anxiety ' worrying so much about my health is driving me crazy
