Everyone keeps telling me if I get back to excersise I'll start feeling better I feel like I have a pretty good handle on my anxiety at the minute but every time I try and excersise my vision goes all blurry and I feel light headed which then sets my anxiety off does anyone have any suggestions

That happens and has happened to me! therapy is really the answer for u. u need to do exposure therapy to decrease your fears of the symptoms.

This was happening to me and I was also getting heart palpitations along with lightheadedness and blurry vision and I was diagnosed with innappropriate sinus tachycardia. It is a non life threatening heart condition where your heart beats faster than normal even when resting. You should probably see your doctor. It also could be just anxiety.

Hi 👋 Connortyu7

Great hearing you are exercising n keeping fit - these symptoms could also be related to either High or low blood pressure - I have the same symptoms which cos of my fluctuating BP I tend to get it quite often and a simple BP test will rule anything out for you - hope your GP takes time to get to the bottom of your symptoms and sort things out if needed .

Take care
