Anxiety and dizziness?

i’m sorry you are going through this. I know how it feels and yes, anxiety can definitely cause dizziness or a feeling like you will be dizzy. Anxiety can cause hundreds of different symptoms. Since you have a history of anxiety, it’s logical that you are going through this right now.

so I definitely agree with your doctor in that you should have regular counseling sessions to learn how to manage this. I know from experience that it’s difficult to do on your own. We tend to sabotage ourselves by overthinking and allowing the negative thoughts to control us. Getting support for this is very important. I do a weekly virtual appointment with a counselor and I actually look forward to it because it’s somebody that I can vent to and get some support from.

in The meantime, there are some things you can do to relax your mind. It’s not a cure but it’s at least some temporary relief .

every Night before I sleep I listen to some positive meditations for anxiety on YouTube. I never make it through the whole meditation because I end up falling asleep.

Also, it’s very important to keep a positive mental attitude even when you’re feeling anxious. it may be difficult at first but the more you do it the easier it gets.

The worst thing you can do is sit around and think about all of this because whatever we think about whether it’s positive or negative, it will magnify in our brain!

So what I do is I try to keep busy, I get exercise no matter what, because a strong body equals a strong mind!

i eat healthy, and tell myself that I am in charge, not the anxiety and not the negative thoughts. do things that make you laugh and smile. things like that.

i used to cower to the anxiety and have a poor me attitude. However, that makes things way worse because I would give up my power. So I had to create a stronger mind and not allow myself to do that. I became more decisive and in control. I still get those symptoms from time to time but I don’t let it bring me down. It’s a process but it can be done.

So I hope you do get that support and just remember that none of the symptoms can harm you. But we have to fight for ourselves! Take care
