I have had anxiety as long as I can remember. It got to a point where it became overwhelming for me so I decided to ask the doctor to try a medication for it and was prescribed Lexapro. I took it and within an hour I went into what I didn’t know at the time was a panic attack (I was once fortunate not to know what one was). I suddenly felt really strange and my heart started racing and felt like I had to throw up. So I went into the bathroom and I suddenly felt like I couldn’t breathe. My tongue felt swollen. My arms felt like someone was squeezing them and my legs felt numb. I thought I was having a heart attack or a stroke. I didn’t realize what was happening. I stopped taking the Lexapro. Was prescribed buspar a week later. I did ok with it for 6 hours and then the same thing happened except a new thing happened I started shaking uncontrollably like I was having a seizure. I then became terrified of medication. I didn’t have panic attacks after that but my anxiety was the worst it’s ever been. For 3 months now, I have felt terribly ill. My main issue is I always feel like I’m about to pass out. I feel extremely lightheaded and weak. My body feels drained and sometimes like my legs and feet aren’t there, it’s a strange feeling. It feels like I have low sugar or low blood pressure but I’ve been checked a few times and always check out fine. I have found the only thing that helps me get through is to constantly graze and a half cup of orange juice helps. But this only works for an hour or so and I’m right back at it. I can feel it coming over me even sitting on the couch when I’m not thinking about it and just trying to do regular things I’ve always enjoyed like reading a book or watching a favorite show. It hits me hard at times and I always feel like I’m literally about to faint. Either my body feels weightless or all of a sudden it feels like a ton of bricks, I get really shaky, heart starts racing, and my eyes feel like they could roll in the back of my head. If I didn’t have this “passing out” feeling, I could handle my anxiety. I just don’t understand why I always feel like I could faint and the only way I can keep up with it is to eat or drink something sugary to give myself some kind of energy. My sugar was 154 yesterday before I ate dinner and it’s never been that high before I’m usually in the 80-90s range. But after dinner I went to a normal range of 97. As soon as I get up in the morning the feeling is there, like I have to do something fast like drink something or eat something or I’m going to pass out. Once I get myself to a point Im not so lightheaded, I get a horrible headache and that’s always the pattern. Is this really anxiety??
I’m always so restless and can’t relax. I pace my house like a madwoman. It wakes me up a few times a night I feel really shaky and much like having low sugar but I don’t. This passing out feeling is crippling.
it’s so crazy to me that anxiety can be so powerful. 
Crippling
