Health anxiety hitting again

[Bostonj]

Was in a meeting and got extremely dizzy started freaking out that I would pass out or have a stroke now mind won't stop racing and feel like I am drooling I know it's anxiety but my god is it hard when these situations hit.

It started while filling out life insurance paperwork so I know my trigger but any advice would be welcome

I felt like that today, minus the drooling. I was dizzy hot and tongue was tingling, I just drank really cold water from a fountain and sat down, I was at a store. But it was scary was well. Still feeling sick. Hoping you get some advice so I can get some pointers as well. Hope you are feeling better.

Had the same thing today. I get dizziness feeling like I am on a boat. I get nausea and I start having anxiety. Numbness in lips, tingling feeling. When you get into these situations I've found that focusing your thoughts on something else helps tremendously. If you keep thinking about the dizziness and start googling your symptoms it makes the anxiety worse and the symptoms worse. Just know that nothing is wrong with you and focus on something else. Maybe what you're going to have for dinner or what you want to do after work. Also I've heard that anxiety dizziness can be caused by Hyperventilation or poor breathing techniques. After the New Year I told myself I am going to start going to the gym and exercising. It helps a lot with anxiety and stress. Hope this helps.
