my health anxiety is really playing me up, and i am fed of of every day being a battle fighting my thoughts and wondering why i keep feeling this way..
i just done get why i keep getting all these symptoms over the years i have done so much reasearch on health anxiety, but i just dont get it.. feeling dizzy for no reason feeling like i am going mad feeling like i am the only person to feel like this (i know im not) but why do i have to battle everday to stop myself from feeling like this, i want to wake up and not have to think about how i am feeling i just want to feel like me..

am waiting on a ultrasound for gallstones and it has been 4 weeks since i saw the doctor as you can imagine got so many stupid things going through my head driving myself mad i just feel so alone like noone understands i feel confused sad depressed every feeling possible, i lost my dad november last year he died of cancer and i am worrying i may have cancer not just gallstones oh why oh why cant i just be me this just isnt fair

Hi

Im sorry to hear u going through this.

I understand losing your dad would make u feel anxious about yr health as my dad has been battling cancer the past 18 months and im always worried i have cancer to

I no exactly what u mean, i would like to wake up and not think how will i feel today etc, and to get rid of the dizzy/spacey feelings etc

You should contact the doctors and tell them its been 4 weeks and can they chase it up. I work in a surgery and i no there is noramlly a wait but u should of had an appt by now.

take care

love mandie x

Definitely not, I feel all the things you are talking about, constant dizziness, feeling like I am going mad, feeling alone...it's terrifying and I don't think I can cope with anymore.

i get this dizziness/spacey feeling quite alot, but seems to come on worse when im thinkin about it. its dreadful isnt it. i was on fluoxine for 5/6years. stopped them myself over 6 months ago, not any better or any worse, should i take them again?

I get dizzy a lot, but it does come and go more when I think about it. I have always had poor balance though and tiredness makes you more prone to dizziness.

Ask your doctor. I personally try to take no meds whatsoever, even avoiding paracetamol if possible.

me too, i was on fluoxitne for 5/6 years, stopped them myself as didnt feel a major difference. Don't want to depend on medication if i can help it. does anyone suffer from irritabilty aswell? i can be fine 1 min then the slightest thing can put me in a mood.:mad:

That can be linked to stress and depression. I feel like that, snap at the smallest thing or cry at the same.
