Re: Head rushes & dizziness
Hi Dan
I am having the exact sensation that you described as well. I am so sure it has to do with anxiety. It may be partially allergy related as well, but anxiety is for sure a factor. I also just finished with two years of field work for my degree. I think that often the unknown is more panic ridden for us than the known, even if the known is challenging. Meaning, at first I could not understand how this could be anxiety as I am done with my internships. I was very stressed there, trying to hold everything together. But now I am sitting around doing nothing for the summer. So even though the sitting around should be more relaxing, it is not, because my mind is all over. I am having difficulty finding a job, even if I found one, I cant imagine working right now as I am so anxious. Anyway, my point is, it totally makes sense that your anxiety level would sky rocket, especially with the new baby. A thing to remember about the baby is that they are only little for SUCH a short time. So, even if you are not working to your full potential for the baby's first few years of life, that is okay, and you have the rest of your life. Before you know it that little baby will be in school all day, and then before you know it agian, he/she will be leaving for college! So, just figure out a way to get by for the first few years, and enjoy it... Your career will still happen, you dont have to trade anything in. Anyway-- I really wanted you to know that I am having the same exact symptoms as you... I am also scared it is something terrible, but its just too ironic that us, and everyone here, have the same exact symptoms. Take care.
