Hiya. x
Visual disturbance is common with anxiety, and affects a lot of people. For some others, its a heightened sense of hearing, or smell. I myself am sensative to light, and often see things like flashes of colour or spots or something. Its a scary feeling at times, but it wont hurt you. x Paula x

Oh anxietyoverload, I do sympathise.

I have been keeping a lid on my anxiety for ages, and yet yesterday whilst shopping I could feel it rising up again and was struggling with my vision - flickering and flashing - and felt faint (my normal panic thing)

It is horrible I know. Try to be nonchalant about it if you can, see it as a small blip, and get on with things regardless.

Big hugs to you.xx:hugs:

In so glad I'm not the only one, it scares me so much, the other night I was watching tv and I saw a give White flash so I rewound the tv and it happened again in the same place so I thought it must be the programme but then I did it agIn and it wasn't there!! What's wrong with me :( and lately it feels like there's so much pressure in my head and it going to come out of my ears, do you get this too? Xx
