I have some weird dizziness as when eyes closed and laying down

[olivia224]

A few times when I am trying to get to sleep or in the morning when I am waking up I feel like I start to get dizzy. When I close my eyes and try to sleep I feel like it starts to spin and then when I open my eyes everyhting is fine no spinning no dizzines no nothing. I went to an ENT and told him all about this and he said i didnt have any ear problem or inner ear diease and that this could be anixety and that when ur eyes and ear and feet arent working toegther then u could feel dizzy??? could this really be or something else??please help

I do think its anxiety, I only get it when I am super stressed that day and have had a panic attack so I am relating it too that anyways I have been checked with everything and they can't find anything wrong with me.....Panic and anxiety can do some crazy stuff! I wish you well and hope it gets better :)!

thanks, yea but i have been to 2 ent's and one specialized in balance and vertigo disorders and he told me it def. was not ear related. soo idk.

If anything I would blame it on an inner ear thing. I had an inner ear infection where I couldn't even walk. I couldn't turn my head to the side and when I laid down I was still dizzy with my eyes opened or closed. I went to the ER and the ER doctor said everything looked fine lol. About a week later I was fine, but I do get that dizziness from time to time due to fluid in my ears. I have anxiety attacks too, but I knew that was not from anxiety. If you are truly dizzy it could be from your ears, but remember with our anxiety our minds focus on discomfort and multipy it times 10.

Try reading the book Panic Attacks Workbook by David Carbonell, Ph.D.. It has helped me a lot! You can order it online for $11 or a little more, but it is so worth it.

Hi Olivia,

Well let me first tell you that I know what your going through.  Not fun to say the least.  I have been going through this anxiety thing for over 3 months now and its been a nighmare.  I dont know how many times I convinced myself I was dying of something.  It sounds like anxiety.  Get yourself checked out so it will give you some peace of mind.
God Bless
