Hi hun, the vertigo came about the same time. I suffer with vertigo every day, but only have bad panic attacks once in a while now. How are you managing at the moment? x

Hi, Don't think I have vertigo, vertigo is spinning? mine is general light headed and detached feelings.

i am not managing at all :( i am really struggling, i do have good and bad days but i wish it would just go away, the dizzyness isnt as bad but its still here and worsens when i have terrible anxiety and panic attacks, i am waiting to be seen by a councilor at my doctors, how do you manage?

miss d. its a hard struggle isnt it! I usually have my trust paper bag, to re-breathe. Even sitting down, or on the bed, it persists. Worse before a period. I would say, I accept its part of my anxiety and panic, so I dont worry so much that Im going mad, or have some awful disease etc. Sometimes....we just have to accept it, very hard I know. xxx:hugs:

WOW Thanks, glad i am not the only one, and yeah i have to agree the time of the month makes it worse, i got the implant put in to see if that helps and its slightly taking the edge of it, i just avoid taking the kids out on my own now, i like the security of my own home, god knows how but ive been taking driving lessons since may and my test is in november, hoping that helps having the car and going out with the kids x
