dizzy

[rainbow1248]

I have been getting dizzy so dizzy and the lightheadness is out of this world. Is this common for anxiety or panic attacks. Can get rid of the funny feeling. Feeling like im on a boat. Like the floor is uneven or moving. Is this common for anxiety too?

So 6 months ago I started to get this feeling that I'm gonna faint. The doctors tell me its anxiety... but I never had panic attacks or problems with anxiety. I feel nausea sometimes...my ears hurt too. I'm ok sitting but when I stand for long or walk..I get this rush light feeling through my body like I'm going to black out... I never do but its scary. All my test at the doctors are normal. Is anyone out there having this or know what it is? Please help

Yes, dizziness and ataxia (loss of coordination) can happen with panic attacks.  That said, if you're not having other symptoms of panic or anxiety, it's not the first thing I'd think of.  Make sure you are well hydrated, eating adequately, and getting enough sleep, and see if that helps.  If not, then you may want to see a doctor, as dizziness and balance problems can be indicative of a lot of things, many of them more dangerous than a panic attack.
