Hi guys,
I've apparently had anxiety for 2 years. But over the past 4months the only real symptom i've had is feeling very spaced out, kind of dizzy but nothings spinning. I've been to the doctor many times and have a refferal to see a neurologist. I've also been doing CBT therapy for about 10weeks, which has hardly helped me at all because she says she doesnt think it is anxiety. I was on 20mg of citalopram for around 18months but gradually reduced the dose and i have been med free for 2weeks now. The doctor wanted me to do this to see if it was the citalopram that had caused the spaced out feeling, but it would appear not.
The past few days have been particularly bad, i constantly feeling like i'm going to fall over/pass out/ have a fit and i'm now completely at the end of my tether with it. Its stopping me doing things i want to do and making my life really quite rubbish.
I wanted to go to a&e last night because i felt so awful, although im not even sure what i'd say when i got there other than 'i feel really funny'.
If anyone has any advice please let me know, im so scared and so fed up of this now. -
