lightheaded

I'm really lightheaded today and I don't know why. I ate a healthy breakfast and lunch and I'm making sure I'm breathing correctly but my brain feels like it's just floating away. I'm so scared I'm going to pass out. :( I have had lightheadedness as a symptom of anxiety before but not this bad and not for this long. I'm also very shaky. I recently had blood work done so I know nothing's wrong there. I am changing up my meds a bit but could that make me feel this lightheaded? Can you faint from upping/lowering meds?

It could be from tension in the neck shoulders and head?

It could very well be from the med change

And probably just anxiety in general.

Try drinking lots of water and I know you probably don't feel like it but do some exercise to get your blood pumping.

On the flip side lay down and have a break out your feet up on the wall so more blood can go to your head.

There is no way you can faint I think you are just having anxiety.

Hope you feel better 😀
