Aniexty and Drowzyness

I was wondering if Anxiety causes extreme drowzyness. I have been through every test under the sun, upper gi, cat scan, patsmere, ultra sounds, blood work for everything, exrays like crazy and the doctors can't find anything wrong with me. The only thing they found wrong was i had a ruptured ovarion cyst which was o. something very small the doc said it would go away in time. Yet i can harldy walk anywhere if i go to do any type of movement my head feels really heavy and i feel extremly tired like i am drugged and want to go to sleep.  I can't even walk around a store without having to sit down. It's really weird i also feel very out of it. This only occurs when i walk, or do any activity. When im sitting or laying down im fine. This has brought on a lot of anxiety, i can't even get out i walk around my house which is ok yet still difficult. I feel like im dying when i do any activity. But it's not like my heart is beating fast it is EXTREME Drowzyness. This has been going on for a month now all i do is sit around. The doc says it's anxety. But im not sure can anxiety get so bad that somebody can't even walk!  Plus im always drowsy during sunset  don't know why and also a couple of hours after i get up i get it too. At night though im fine. It seems to get the worse when im about to be on my menstrual cycle i feel so groggy and tired it's hard to get out of bed.  Im on xanax but mind you these symptoms were happening before i went on any meds.  The reason why i had to be put on xanax was because the drowzyness was scaring me so bad i was having panic attacks. You know when you have the flu and it just weakens you. Thats what i go through on a constant basis. Especially when i walk anywhere! Im only 23 im to young to be going through this! If anybody out there has any type of ideas of what this could be whether anxiety or something else please let me know. i just didn't think anxiety could be that bad to the point where people can't even walk. Help im tired of being weak all the time!

My aniexty has been going on for 5 months now i was recenlty diagonosed with it a month ago. Your right i guess i need to stop dwelling on it. It just sucks because my aniexty comes in the form of extreme tiredness and dizzyness which makes me think im sick all the time. Thankyou for your response.

hi, yes i av bad dizziness with my anxiety BUT IT IS JUST ANXIETY AND WORRYIN ABOUT IT ONLY MAKES IT WORSE! Try and block it out, i know it is hard but if u keep dwelling on it ,it will always be with you! I am only 22 aswell, i have been havin anxiety for the past 7 months and i dont take any meds 4 it as i find it only makes it worse they also only masks the problems! How long have you suffered with your anxiety? Remember it can not harm you keep telling yourself that! Hope you are o.k,
