Hi Katy,

Have you ever read the symptoms page on the forum, below is the link, and you will find all your symptoms there hun, because they are all classic anxiety ones:

Common Symptoms of Panic Attacks, Anxiety, Phobias and OCD. (http://www.nomorepanic.co.uk/NMPcms.php?nmppage=symptoms)

Hope this helps

Love
Trac xx

I'm not saying this to make you feel better but I honestly get the majority of the symptoms you mentioned. Particularly the light headed feeling and the fear of fainitng. in the last 7 years I have had some very intense feelings where I am convinced I am dying. No exaggeration I have felt like I am going to faint 1000's of times and I havent yet. Be strong, easier said then done I know. My symptoms have improved through boredom! I got sick of feeling like I was dying I was determined to overcome it and somehow I stopped the feelings affecting me. Good luck, it sounds very much like anxiety, hope you feel better soon.

Hi Katy, they are all classic symptoms of anxiety. I just wondered if you were on any meds, because some meds do mimic some anxiety related symptoms like the nausea, shakiness & indigestion feelings.

Just a thought hun.

Not one of those things you list give me any cause for concern at all.

They are all totally bog standard anxiety sensations.
