Answer 1

I've suffered with anxiety for as long as I can remember. Yes, it makes you very dizzy, and your body can feel as if you are having a heart attack, and a weird feeling of detachment. Anytime you feel lightheaded, dizzy, or just weird, get your head down quickly to get the blood in it. This will immediately stop the symptoms. I was great at pretending like I was tying my shoe, or messing with my sock, or whatever so my friends didn;t thing I was some kind of freak! Anyway, I ended up going on an anti-anxiety medication because of continous and obsessively worrying about things. It is a real disorder, and a real chemical inbalance, and nothing to be ashamed or embarrased of. It's extremely common, people who experience it are just reluctant to talk about it. I urge you to educate yourself with reading everything you can to understand what it does to your system. You may decide as I did, to see a Psychiatrist and get medication for it. I can't tell you how wonderful and peaceful it is to have it under control now and having my chemicals in balance. I truly enjoy life, and wish I could've gotten all those years back that I suffered so needlessly for. Good luck, you will get better!

Don't panic attacks just bite? They can make u feel dizzy, get your heart pounding, your tummy doin' somersaults...all that and we are still alive..just feel like we are dying! Are u on meds? They help my anxiety. It just took me 40yrs. or so to figure out what I had! I thought I was goin' nuts, but I wasn't. I thought I had a d isease, but I didn't. And isn't being continuouly stressed out just plain exhausting. Are you also depressed? Sleep too much, then not enough. It all goes together..Whoopee, huh? Ask the doc for something, they have it..I know, I use antidepressents for both symptoms. It's nice to go somewhere and not feel that dread looming over me anymore. Hugs to you! oooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

I've worried myself with lightheadedness and feeling dizzy before. I found that I was dehydrated! Severely. Do you drink plenty of water? I used to get headaches a lot too. Cafeinated beverages do not count as they only block water from properly absorbing into your body - I just learned all this when I tried to donate blood at Life Blood and they denied me for being severely dehydrated! Drink lots of water! Lots and good luck to you.

It sounds to me like you have panic disorder or something. maybe general anxiety disorder. You might want to consider seeing a psychologist or at least working with stress relieving practices if you are not down with taking medicine. Also, you are not alone. Tons of people have GAD or symptoms of it and it is very treatable. oh and dont worry, your not going to die...
