Anxiety dizziness is horrible I swear I feel that everything is in diagonal and I can’t sleep because I feel the whole room is spinning god somebody knows tips for feeling better?? If you go through this we will go out together
I used to get pretty bad vertigo when I would get panic attacks. It would feel like the floor was moving beneath me, and it would continue when I would try to go to bed. Someone told me to pretend I enjoy it because it sounds like a fun experience. I thought that was stupid advice, but I tried it anyways. When I would lay down at night, I would close my eyes and pretend I was on a boat. When the room would wave beneath me, I would tell myself that they were waves. I would try to imagine the boat that I was on and how it was moving. Another one that I would try was that I would imagine that I was sleeping on a waterbed. Honestly, this didn’t get rid of the feeling, but it did calm my brain enough to let me go to sleep. I know it’s a scary feeling, but at least it might help you fall asleep
Thank u so so much I will try that ❤️
I go through this all day every day. I have bad vertigo and I’ve had so many tests and nothing is wrong so it’s just anxiety related. It feels exactly like that like I’m on a boat or the floor is moving under me. Sometimes I have a random spinning one where things go sideways. It’s the worst part of my anxiety because I can’t help but think it’s more than anxiety. I wish there was a way to stop it immediately. But I try to hold out hope that therapy here will help
What do you mean with the spinning one i think i get the exact same i thought i was the only one
Mine is chronic as well. I've had MRIs, EEGs, ent tests everything for years. We're FINALLY approaching something. My neurologist felt my neck a few weeks ago and said it was so tense from anxiety that he thinks it might be the issue. He prescribed a muscle relaxer and physical therapy and I'm finally getting some relief. It does still get worse with anxiety (like when I'm stressed or in a busy store) but it's not as debilitating anymore.
@Ale21155 Like sometimes it’s the feeling I’m on a boat and sometimes out of nowhere Everything turns sideways and I feel like I’m going to pass out.
@Shaylene67 My neck is so tense I get spasms in the muscles. I clench my jaws at night really bad too
@Kaitlyn Ruth It sounds like we're very similar! If you have a neurologist, mention what I said and maybe they will try the same treatment course on you. ❤ I hope things improve quickly! I know how bad it sucks.
@Kaitlyn Ruth I think is similar to something that happens to me that is that suddenly i feel and see everything a little bit tilted to the side like if it was in diagonal its so scary
@Shaylene67 How are you now
I have dizziness as well, it's a different kind, but it's chronic and I feel your struggle. If you've had everything checked medically, you can rest assured that it is just anxiety. I use another app, called Dare, that has recordings to help you challenge anxiety's physical sensations. It really works! Give it a shot.
I havent got checked but I started getting it when I had anxiety so I think it’s that
@Ale21155 The dizziness does go away . I had it bad after a panic attack. It fell like it lasted for a long time . Make sure you are eating and drinking lots of fluids. Get good rest even if you can’t sleep just lay in bed it helps .
(HELP PLEASE) So my depersonalization/derealization has gotten so bad I’m actually scared for my life and I don’t know if I’m ever going to go back to normal I’m freaking out about it. I feel so unreal and vision is so blurry, I feel like I can go insane any second and that feeling is causing me so MUCH anxiety. I don’t know what to do anymore guys, this is a HORRIBLE theme I’m having because it’s not just mental, it’s physical, I feel so many ugly symptoms because of the derealization! Help someone please!
Feeling so helpless! This anxiety is causing me to be so stressed to the point where I can’t eat or sleep. I’m so exhausted. Can anyone provide tips on what helps calm you down?
this may sound confusing but nothing seems real, i feel really dizzy in a way, like im going to faint, but im not going to? i cant explain it. i keep looking around and everything seems different, its making me feel anxious. is there any way i could fix this??
