always feel lightheaded and dizzy

[DIZZYGRL]

Hi I'm 25 female and I have been told by my doctor that i have a panic disorder. I am always lightheaded and feeling dizzy. I feel like I could pass out at any second. This is ruining my life. Im scared to do anything alone. I cant go to a grocery store, mall, nothing. I am too scared that I'm going to pass out and I have tried to overcome it but I cant. As soon as I get into a place I get so dizzy and my vision is all messed up. I get so hot and sweaty and my heart races. I want my life back. I still dont believe that its just anxiety causing all of this. I feel like I have something else wrong that the doctors cant find even though i have had bloodwork, mri, ekg, and they were all normal. I started taking .25mg of xanax once a day. still dont feel any better yet. So if anybody has any help please give it to me. I feel like i have hit rock bottom

I went to the phyciatrist and prescribed me 2mg of sedoxil everyday, and all the lightheadedness went away. but now im feeling a bit tired which is easier to deal with, If it will start happening again when i reduce the dose, at least i had good 2 weeks and time to think better. Its a good way to get the symptom to rest for a while. Or hopefully will be able to deal with it now. If i will manage ill promise i tell you how i did it!! :) but it takes time i think.

Isn't it terrible feeling?? Same here....i hate the part when i'm literally fighting not to pass out...this is not fun at all..people think it's all in our heads...oh yeah,it's easy to say that! at first i would get really scared,but now i'm really getting pissed off at this whole situation...it ***** when you are about to go to the store or anywhere out of the house and you are thinking: oh God am i gonna be all right this time? is it gonna happen again?? what if i pass out?? first time i experienced a panic attack was back in 2001., i was 19 yrs old...but they would last for short period of time and would be gone...after that,they would come and go...then,after i had my child i didn't have any panic attacks for 5-6  years,at all!! i even forgot about it...and then,month and a half ago,this s*** started again! and it's worse than ever! the part that i hate the most is the LIGHTHEADED FEELING,LIKE I'M GONNA PASS OUT ANY MINUTE!!! that's the one i really hate!! i did some tests,came back normal,waiting for more results this week...
if all tests are ok,i'm thinking about trying a HOLISTIC AND ALTERNATIVE healing...i think there's more of other things out there ,that could actually help us...doctors nowadays suck big time,they play with ppl! sometimes it seems to me that either they don't know  s***, or they pretend as they don't know better  as they are ordered so by the ones in charge,if ya'll know what i mean...
also,check out CRANIOSACRAL THERAPY,it supposed to do wonders for people with all kinda physical and mental issues...
also..HYPNOTHERAPY should be a big help too!
like i mentioned,i'm just waiting for all of my blood work results to come back,that way i can rule out anything serious and of physical nature...if everything is good,then i'm trying out the options mentioned above! I AM GONNA BEAT THIS THING,AND ALL OF YOU SHOULD FIND A WAY TO DO SO TOO!  STAY FOCUSED AND IF ONE THING DON'T WORK OUT,GO AND TRY THE NEXT ONE! Eventually you'll find a solution and you'll be proud of yourself and even more important...you will feel good and normal again! :)

So wait, (i posted on the neuro forum) my symptoms--3 months-constant-dizziness and lightheadness--could be related to anxiety? I had everything checked too:mri, mra, ent specialists, blood tests; all came back normal. I am just losing my mind
