All morning and now feel like it. I have been tired the last couple of days. The last few days I've cut down my food. But not starving my self. It's made me really anxious and erratic today. I feel like I'm going mad. I'm scared and feel like crying. I used to have this year's ago when my anxiety and panic attacks were bad. . Keep feeling like I'm going forwards.

When I am going through a period of intense stress/anxiety and am eating less as a result of reduced appetite, I feel constantly off balance. Especially if I bend over or stand quickly when doing housework and that sort of thing.

I had a normal MRI yesterday despite feeling MAJORLY off balance for a couple of months now. I was certain there was something really wrong. I was mistaken.

It is probably due to your stress levels alone or something very benign like inner ear issues from a cold or virus you had, or hormone changes if you are female.

I feel this way all the time. Just had a moment myself, stood up to walk to the break room at work and felt way off balance. I think a lot of things contribute to this - stress, hormones, how much sleep you're getting, how much water you're drinking, etc.
