I am constantly light headed

[EAF]

After a weekend of partying two weeks ago I havn't been the same since! I am constantly light headed, i mean just all of the time and when im in stressful or unfamiliar situations it becomes worse, i can hardly sleep at night It's so surreal and unpleasant!

Anyone able to give me any clues or peace of mind ? I have been to the doctors and had bloods but nothing so maybe thinking could be linked to anxiety but nothing has made me anxious PLEASE HELP!

Hi,

Im having this at the moment as well and its driving me mad!
Iv had it before and put it down to a chocolate allergy but iv not eaten chocolate in a year now and i started with it again yday... i have had a very anxious few days and also very stressed about my brothers wedding next week so i do believe its to do with anxiety.... its horrible! Possibly the worst symptom i have.... and the scariest!
It stops me doing things and i hate it, but the best advice i can give is to just go with it, accept it and it should start to improve x

I am suffering with this too!! have been referred to ENT dr as the hospital think i may have bppv (a form of vertigo where the crystals in the ears have become loose and float around) I think they are going to say at the appointment that there is nothing there and that its all caused by my anxiety......

Doesnt help that i have a fear of fainting!!!!! at the moment it makes me terrified to go out anywhere :weep:

Hope it passes for you x

I have fear of fainting too...... it is definitly annoying and scary!
It makes me just want to stay in my room all day which is one thing i cant do! I have work tomorrow and im dreding it.. x

Its like i wrote your post above!!

It makes me want to hide all day too, i like the fact that i have to go to work as it pushes me to leave the house (well not like but it keeps me in a routine lol), however my dr has signed me off of work for two weeks at the moment for the vertigo :( this is bad for me tho as there is nothing to make me leave the house and im winding myself up over the lighteheaded/dizzy feelings by focusing on them too much.

Hope work goes ok for you tomorrow and that this passes soon for all of us!! xx
