Help dizziness is killing me !!!

First go and see a doctor, take a medical examination and see if your problem is physical on the symptoms might come from a form of anxiety because feeling dizzy is easily one of the most disruptive symptoms of anxiety.

You can use some techniques for overcoming headache and dizziness like the ones below:

- If you feel dizzy, try to grab hold of a steady object beside you.

- When you have a headache you can take an over-the-counter pain reliever. Most painkillers won't kick in for about 30 minutes, so take a dose as soon as you start feeling the headache coming on.

- Drink plenty of water. Dehydration can lead to a headache, especially if you've vomited recently or you're hungover.

- Find a quiet, dark place to take a break. If you can, try to lie down and relax for at least 30 minutes.

- Use a cool compress. Placing something soft and cool over your forehead can help the blood vessels constrict, which might ease some of the pain of the headache.

- Massage your scalp, neck and ear lobes. Doing some light massage can distract you from the pain, as well as improving circulation and relieving tension.

- Breathe slower and deeper. Often during anxiety attacks it feel as though you cannot get a full breath.

- Close your eyes. If you can safely close your eyes, try keeping them closed for a while.

Remember, it's possible for dizziness to be the result of anxiety, and it's also possible for dizziness to cause anxiety.

Hope this helps. Take care!

Hi
I have a couple of questions.
Is this worse when you are around people or at work.do you avoid talking to people.
Do you get anxious before you go out for no reason apart from the thought of you might feel dizzy.
If yes post a message and i will post 1 on how i started to get over this problem.

Hi Alb.:)

Dizziness in realtion to anxiety can be caused by both improper breathing and/or tense muscles in the neck.  Since you also have a headache...this may be due to the latter, but it can also all be a combination of stressors and anxiety.

Managing your symptoms through self-help would be a good place to start...so here is a link to get you started.;)
