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

This anexiety has taken over my life. I feel like uhave emphazyma or a brain tumor or something seriously wrong with me and in thinking so I create these symptoms and I took Zoloft in the past but just tried to start them again and it didn't work my doctor gave
Me something different but of course I'm scared to take it.  I wish I didn't have this problem. I want to feel normal.  Instead if think that everyday for whatever reason I'm
Going to die from some awful disease. It's great to kno that there are others out there.

I'm so glad I found this page because everybody I know thinks I'm crazy.  Nobody understands what it feels like to be dizzy and have to hold onto things to walk.  I know it affects my work and social life.  This craziness has been going on for over 6 years.  I woke up with it one day. I usually only feel dizzy at work and in social public situations, like food shopping, stores, restaurants, or parties. I have passed out from the dizziness before, which scares me even more.  I have exhausted all of my options as far as what other drs I can possibly see.  I have been to several ear, nose, throat drs, 2 neurologists, a heart dr, my family dr, a holistic dr, a psychologist, a sleep disorder dr...and everybody came back with the same results...that nothing was wrong with me physically.  I am at the end of my rope.  It is absolutely ruining my entire life. I don't know where else to turn, but I know that this is an awful way to be.   Does anybody have any other suggestions as far as drs to see or tests to take or anything that has helped them??
