Nonstop anxiety

[Highrish]

Does anyone else experience vertigo along with anxiety and or panic attacks? I have vertigo all the time since I developed an anxiety disorder.

[Highrish]

Yes they are. I'm not sure what causes it but I wish I knew. I always feel like I'm foggy

I got this when I first started getting anxiety attacks as well.  They're very disorienting.

[Highrish]

I have attacks everyday at least every hour some are light some are debilitating. I'm trying to overcome this completely on my own by forcing myself to do things even when I feel like I'm going to faint. It's frustrating because it is all psychological and I keep telling myself that if my mind is strong enough to produce these attacks then it should be strong enough to overcome it.

When I first had panic attacks and didn't know they were Panic Attacks or anxiety, I would be driving my truck on the road and all of a sudden the road would get wavy and would not be straight anymore.  It would bend and twist and I would get so dizzy,  I would rub my eyes while driving, but it was very scary to be out at  65 miles an hour and have the road fall off the earth while I was driving on it.  I started limiting my driving to city streets at a lower speed, but the vertigo was still there, the black spots in front of my eyes and dizziness no matter the speed or the roadway...

I was checked for physical causes which is always a real good thing as there are ear, eye and nose issues that might cause these problems, but I checked out fine and it wasn't until I had severe chest pains and heart beat problems and went to the ER was I diagnosed with Panic Disorder.  I could not believe all that anxiety can do to the human body and mind, and the doctor who treated me got me into a group therapy setting and I rarely have these problems today....

I do hope you will come back and tell us how you are doing.  I will never forget how scary the symptoms of anxiety were, or are....

Yes they are referring me to an ENT but I think it's psychological

Yes, I've had that happen many times during a panic attack. There have been a few times where I can hardly even see.
Have you talked to your Dr about the vertigo since you do have it all the time?
