Hi guys

Long time since I’ve posted on here. Mixture of Sertraline and CBT have made my health anxiety go to sleep. But tonight, something happened to my partner that I am starting to worry about.

He was driving up to meet me. Whilst driving, he blinked and suddenly his vision was blurry, for about 2 seconds. At the same time, he had moderate dizziness and nausea. This lasted about 10 seconds.

The main reason I’m concerned is that he doesn’t have - and never has had - health anxiety. Although, he can be an anxious person, it has never related to his health.

I’m just hoping somebody on here can reassure me that they’ve had something like this before. The reassurance is for me and only me - he’s not aware that I’ve posted on here.

I know I’m feeding the dragon, but we’ve just bought a house together and I can’t stop fearing the worst.

Thanks

I’m really pleased to hear you are doing well.

I would suggest that perhaps your partner was very tense, I sometimes get it when driving, and then I get that bit of dizziness and feel a bit giddy too. Once you start breathing normal again it passes.
