Head feels heavy,dizzy??

[bagonerves]

Hi,

I am a 20 year old male and an anxiety sufferer and I had a bad episode of panic attacks about three months ago..at this time I was in bed for a week really lethargic and had a pain in my chest..I had extensive tests done and everything came back clear I was convinced I was dying.

After my test results came back clear I felt fine again but in the last few days ive started feeling dizzy and lethargic again..I did finish up from full time work last friday as I am going travelling for 3 months in two weeks time. I have been fine up till now..I started going to a therapist about a month ago and have had a few sessions I don't know if what we have been discussing is triggering this??

Since my last bad anxiety spell I have had two suicides in my life..my cousin and my friend its the 5th ive had to deal with in 2 years..is this starting to take its toll?

Im really confused im starting to convince myself im dying again because I dont know whats wrong with me and why this keeps happening..

Any advise would be great

Jason

Sounds like me, I take adderal for head fog, I see a chiropractor for body issues, I have been told ive got menieres disease then told no it wasnt. It might just be your ears, thats what mine is. I have a ear disease that does that and when the weather changes so doesnt my head. Also your a hypocondreact I see which doesnt help your matters any at all. If somebody has something or dies your think youve got everything in the book. Well honestly you do have anxiety but your doing it to yourself by worring and freaking out which causes the light head, dizzy and fast heart beat and all that. Take deep breaths and member your really fine. Depression is sounds like also so id advise something for that. Ive been dealing with all this stuff for years and sad to say im only 28. I assure you your not going to die. If any of you have fb find living with menieres disease. We all go threw the same thing alot. In time you will find ways to cope with things such as anxiety. Get a massage (hot stone) and facial. Guy or woman both will relax you and you will feel great. I to thought i had a brain tumor and all that crap everything came back neg. I see a ent specialist every 6months. Dizziness can be caused by alot of things but if you really think you have a brain tumor just look at your pupils if one is bigger then the other then yes you probably do. I honestly wouldnt worry about it. Like I said get on some xanax for your panic attacks and a antidepressent for your worrys. Your not alone period. My head floats around and gets foggy, and i get dizzy, and sometime feel like im on a boat or stepping in pot holes. If anyone needs any other advice just fb me under charlotte powell hessley.

It's so miserable and no one gets it if they've never had the feelings we have. Thank goodness there are people out there who understand. I wish it would all just stop though! Dizzy, constant worrying, heart beating fast, feeling faint, jittery......aaahhhhhhh lol

Totally understand!  I am so glad to have found this site.  I am fighting through this right now.  Feel like every year more and more things are wrong with me, and I seriously wonder how many years left I have, haha!  

Latest issues are heavy, dizzy spells, and seems like I have to work to breathe.
