Dizzy Groggy Anxiety Help Posted: 10-21-07 03:03am
hey guys, well im 22 and alot of things
have happened to me in the past eg my
father dying unexpectedly and fighting
with my mum and her boyfriend and
eventually having to move away, when we
fought i would sometimes suffer a attack
and have to walk away.
Now i feel dizzy groggy alot one or 2
weeks straight and then it goes, then
comes back, when i worry get chest pain
where when u touch the bone it hurts which
sounds it may be back pain also i also get
sweaty palms alot when i worry or im out
and about in social situations.
This is starting to get really frustrating
and the dizzyness sometimes happens when i
think im not even feeling any anxiety or
when i think im happy unless there is
something in the back of my head, i
exercise alot i dont eat very good lol so
im pretty fit and being 22 this thing
sux.
I get a headache every tuesday for some
reason too
I get back pain easy after lifting etc
too.
If anyone could help me out it would be
really great thankyou.

Well I wwould first go see a regular
doctor and rule out any
physical/neurological causes. Feeling
dizzy like that is not normal and you
should make sure it's not something bad.
If the regular doctor doesn't find
anything wrong, I'd suggest going to see a
psychologist. They can help you with the
anxiety and the nervousness in social
situations. Anxiety does cause physical
symptoms if not treated, but the good news
is, it can be treated!! It sounds like
you've gone through a lot and could use
someone to talk to about it and help you
out.
Best of luck!

ah hold on, when you get dizzy... is it a
severe feeling of internal tension too?
like you want to explode and nausea and
the light headedness comes with it, when i
say nausea i mean a very light sensation
of it...is this how you feel at 'trigger'
times? And the headaches are a classic
sympton of anxiety and stress, i was
getting one nearly every day of the week,
usually behind the eyes or on one side of
my head aronud the temple.Usually got
strong palpitations too. my tablets really
help this though. They dont get rid of the
worry, but they lighten it a lot.

Well, no, you need to see a doctor to get
medication.
And you definitely need to, to rule out
neurological causes. If you ignore
something like that, it can get really
bad.
