Had an anxiety disorder for many years but recently I’ve gotten extremely weak out of nowhere like I’m going to fall asleep or like I’m going to pass out . Anybody?

Yes I have had this allll the time, I got so many check ups and everything was fine. But about 3 months ago my blood test showed Vitamin D deficiency which can tigger anxiety and depression so you might want to check that. My symptoms have improved a lot with my treatment. The weakness can also be from the fight or flight mode our bodies get into as a result of anxiety.

Ty for response😊...I was thinking about that! Because I’ve been told I was low in vitamin D and I’m not good at taking it. I know I know…I’ve had racing heart before but this is weird and I was wondering if it is with other people experience in a panic attack.

Yes a panic attack can cause that and extreme weakness afterwards, I have felt very weak the both times I had a mini panic attack. But you should look into getting the Vitamin D deficiency taken care of. I take my treatment once a week, it's a small little pill. I was given it for 3 months and it has helped me so much with regards to weakness and has improved my anxiety a little. I also eat a lot of oatmeal now, the milk in that helps too since I can't drink it plain.
