Strange head feelings, lightheadedness, blurry vision...is it anxiety?

jason you mention you don't feel depressed or anxious at all yet you have all these anxious tendencies; the health anxiety...uncertainty and so on.  and you state you've had panic attacks before so my initial impression was denial.  what you've written here is more or less is what i would've written 2 yrs ago and then some.  so, i'm a little baffled you're having a hard time accepting anxiety as a diagnosis considering what you have seemingly gone through this past year.  

clearly you have health anxiety which will manifest symptoms that will leave you pondering and searching for answers, hence the numerous tests; vicious cycle for sure.

likewise, my symptoms have been brutal the past few years.  the reality is i suffer from GAD and OCD.  the random fatigue, the blurry vision, the off-balance feeling, the weird head pressure that doesn't hurt but feels weird (comes and goes briefly), very tense muscles, body-wide muscle twitching for over year now and on and on...popping joints all over, waking up out of a deep sleep trying to catch my breath, etc...  i could list symptoms for days.  i've had the MRIs done, blood work galore, hearing and balance test, x-rays, ultrasounds, tests for days.  likewise, i was doing a lot of caffeine and getting little sleep.  my diet was dominant with refined carbs which apparently adds to anxiety.  likewise, i've cut caffeine and have been focused on proper diet...fruits and vegetables, plant based diet taking priority.  

i can definitely empathize with you, it's a horrible thing to go through.  i'd like to add that after two years of health anxiety i've noticed a subtle shift to not caring anymore about all the symptoms.  it's like i'm exhausted mentally worrying about them.  it's as if my body has taken the wheel from me and has decided it's tired of worrying about all the symptoms.  luckily, i find myself worrying less these days.  anyway, good luck jason...you're in good company. 

 Jason, first of all congratulations on quitting smoking.  That is awesome! You have just begun adding years to your life. The lightheadedness headaches, blurry vision, fatigue and weakness could very well be related to underlying anxiety that you may not even be aware Of.   Just the fact that you had panic Attacks in the past tells me that there still might be something inside you related to stress  causing the symptoms. 

Try the lexapro But you have to give it a good six weeks to see if it helps. Sometimes less. And yes, caffeine always makes anxiety worse. There’s always the possibility that a vaccination can cause symptoms but it’s very hard to know for sure.  Is there anything in your life right now causing you some stress or anxiety? 

 I had all of your symptoms starting in my 20s. All my tests were normal. Felt like I was the only one in the world feeling this way. I couldn’t believe all my symptoms were due to stress and anxiety but they actually were. After a while the body just can’t take it anymore and it has a little break down where we develop the symptoms.  What I do is completely relax my mind and my symptoms diminish or go away. I listen to meditation so YouTube for anxiety when I lie down to sleep. They also teach you how to separate yourself from stress and anxiety, negative thoughts, etc. I do this daily . It really helps. You can definitely get back to enjoying your life, you just need to learn how to manage anxiety. Counseling can also help because these things are difficult to overcome all of it it really helps to vent to somebody else in person. Make sure you don’t sit around and worry about the symptoms because they will get worse if you do.  Besides, all your tests were normal so this tells me it’s about anxiety underlying. 

 do things that relax you. Take one day at a time and remember to laugh and smile.😁 

Hello Jason, I have been through your experience before and fortunately I am the same age as you. I also used to do regular workouts as you and was healthy. I started feeling your symptoms last year, after passing through many doctors one of them discovered it as neuropathy, that is nerve injuries. It has many causes but in our case it could be excessive workouts without allowing the body to heal itself. Don't be anxious because it will make the condition worst. Nerves heal slowly so pls take time and talk to your doctors and follow their advice

Probably anxiety. Careful with meds. Stay away from benzodiazepines!! Get a professional massage for some relief. Anxiety is the worst! I can't even walk straight most days.
