Hi all,
I hate that I am here once again after so many years of feeling totally in control but .. there we are.
I’ve had a horrible year, my husband walked out when my daughter was two months old and was vile to me after for months, we’ve since divorced (this was all out of the blue) my daughter then got sepsis and nearly died which was by far the worst. Weirdly I was okay throughout this and managed to cope very well but towards the end of the year ive been extremely stressed.
I tried to go back to work but my anxiety lifted and I’d say it’s been at a high for months now.
Anyway.. past all that.. I had a bad cold a month ago and since that had full sinuses it felt like .. my ears felt full and I started to Become off balance .. and felt like things were moving (checked out and not an ear infection) this was all checked and maybe it’s viral labrynthitis ?!
They don’t know but I’ve had a headache mostly on top and what feels like my brain almost cuts out for a millisecond .. I can’t explain it.. it so hard to explain the feeling but it’s a momentary feeling like a odd feeling in my head then goes away..
This all came to a head yesterday when I nearly had a pani. Attack and had to take a diazepam to calm down because I felt so out of control! It’s the first time it scared me and I haven’t had one in years!!
Anyway I now am concerned I have something wrong with my brain.
I can do all basic brain tests (finger to nose with eyes closed etc etc) but I’m now worrying and over thinking something isn’t right .. I’m so fed up with it all this anxiety and it’s been great for years and suddenly i feel I’m back to square one and this time with a 1 year old and no husband to try and support me. Any help?! Ideas?!
Thank you
