That don't sound good, glad to hear that you where able to safely pull over. You should call your doctor today and ask about getting on some medication to get rid of the panic attack.

I have high stress but I don't take anything for it, it does not hit me like it does you.

But I wish you the best in this matter,

I agree with NightStar. You need to report the dizziness to your physician. The dizziness may be able to be controlled with the proper medication.

When i start to have a panic attack, the first thing i feel is the dizzyness, then the racing heart rate. Then i really panic;) But i would get checked out by a cardiologist and make sure you are clear on the heart. That is what i did, and actually found out that i do have an irregular heart beat and that my septum does not move. So, its always best to be safe than sorry! Good luck

I have known of many people to have panic or anxiety attacks while driving. i actually have them when stuck in traffic! i would talk to a doctor though about getting on some medication so the panic doesnt run your life. good luck!

I only get dizzy if I am lacking water or anemia. My panic attacks usually used to come on by a thought.

i used to get them frequently when driving. and when riding my bike on the highway. i lived w/ anxiety most of my life..happens rarely now. it sucks, try to keep driving unless you really think your safety is compromised...hang in there
