I wake up and its like the room is spinning I get so annoyed with my anxiety that I get mad at other people like its someones fault my head hurts and my eyes feel heavy also
I was on sertraline(Zoloft) for a year. Was off for 4 months and had to go back on.i was only taking this medication at night(1mg). My doctor wanted me to stop taking this so i didn't get addicted to it. So I have been off my medication for three days. I'm experiencing eye site issues,I do wear glasses. I feel dizzy all day long,feels like I have hearing loss. I Worry about everything. I find myself looking things up to see if that's what I have. And I know I should not do that,but it's part of the anxiety. This anxiety is some pretty scary stuff. My thing is , are these all side affects of coming off the med. cold turkey. I have had a brain scan done almost 2 years ago. Here it turns out I have a chemical embalance. Blood work was done to check blood sugar levels and thyroid all came back normal. Blood pressure is where it should be with medication. Possibly coming off of it in 6 months. If you have any suggestions or have the same things happening to you I would love to hear how you are making out and what you try to cope with it.
When my anxiety first started and it was at it's worst, I also had visual disturbances. I had a lot of tunnel vision and also sometimes it looked like things were moving, but I contribute that more to being dizzy, like the room is spinning. Now when my anxiety starts to act up I also have a hard time focusing, it's like a serious job to make my eyes focus. I went to my eye dr and he said everything was fine and looked normal. I also wear glasses but not even my prescription has changed. It's weird the stuff anxiety can do to us. It's good you're getting your eyes checked though, it's always nice to know that it's not something more serious. I'm sure what you're experiencing is just anxiety, but it never hurts to get a pro opinion :)
