Hi
I suffered really badly with dizziness and that weird sensation of wanting to fall over to the extreme! It was sooooo bad I was actually bedridden for three weeks. Guess what? It was only one of the many symptoms of anxiety that I suffered from for about five months, but it was the worst symptom. Its hard to battle with the mind demons who are trying to make you think the worst, but in my case and hopefully yours, it will go away. This website was a great help to me, talking to others etc. Accepting anxiety is the hardest thing to do, fighting it doesnt help. I found that accepting every bloomin symptom it threw at me made it weaker and me stronger. I now have a new life and a new me, which is brilliant! I still have off days, but then I am 43 and nearing a certain time of life called the menopause LOL!
If you haven't already, read Claire Weekes books, they are a real inspiration and a great help.
