Gone down with GAD bad

[Pete_uk]

My head is fuzzy and spinning. I can't stop thinking about what is causing it. My mind won't shut up.

I've gone off food and my shoulders and neck are tight.

How do you get over this? I don't know what I can do :weep:

Ive had exactly the same symptoms these past two months due to a situation that triggered my anxiety.
The most portant thng is to recognise that these symptoms are anxiety and nothing else because the fear of the unknown just causes more anxiety and more symptoms.
I believe it's caused by an very overload or imbalance of stress hormones.
I take supplements and do walking for exercise. And I try to do things that make me happy and relax me.
Hope this helps you.

Thanks.

It does turn out that I have got vertigo which can explain some of the symptoms.

Not the repetitive thoughts though, sadly :(

chances are you got virtigo that then triggered worrying thoughts as you didn't know what was happening and those thoughts have become tangled in a negative/irrational cycle.
That's what anxiety is, trapped by a cycle of negative/irrational thoughts. Breaking the cycle is difficult but you can do it. For some talking therapy is good, others it's medication, some both and others overcome the cycle without assistance.
