HELP I can't stand my life anymore

Jessie was your dizziness swaying when walking? This has been this has been taxing on my body mentally and physically. It could be what I eat, I don't eat well because of the constant and chronic drunk feeling and I don't drink.

Thanks Jessie!

Hardtime, first off, I want to say that my heart goes out to you! I don't fully understand what you are going through, no one here can unless they are going through the exact same thing. Most of us however, can relate to a few things you are going through, so please do not feel alone! Though we may not fully understand (and that is frustrating I know) we are here to support you the best we can! Out of the things you said, two things I can relate to! One, a male who is not understanding, and two anxiety which gets worse because of an illness! The hardest thing is when you love someone, and you feel like you are completely losing it, and they are someone with a strong mind, and not alot of things wrong and they expect you to be able to just change in the blink of an eye because they believe that you have the power to do it! Well, when you can't do it, it makes you feel even more crazy, and like you are not good enough for them, so I can understand that frustration and hurt. Second, I suffer from IBS, SIBO, and possibly endometreosis (not sure on the spelling) and if there is one thing I know, it is that with a health issue you constantly worry about it everyday you get up because you don't want to feel like crap everyday, so then the anxiety gets worse! I am still trying to figure out how to deal with that stuff, but I do know it is not easy to get up and not think about it (even though everyone in my family seems to think it should be) I have a few questions, one I can't remember if you had said anything about an ear problem, I read your post but then read the replys and forgot what exactly you mentioned.. I know that the inner ear contributes alot to dizziness and balance, so I am wondering if that is the issue, because to me that would cause chronic dizziness when walking. I am wondering what area you live in? I ask that because a few hours from where I live is a dizziness and balance center, that focuses completely on these struggles! I think if you could find something like that near you , that would be way better than just a hospital because lets be honest, it takes a lot of different doctors these days to find any good ones!! My thoughts and prayers are with you!!

Yes I was told I have a vestibular disorder, I did go to a balance center, doc told me I had a weakness in my left inner ear. He also said with my anxiety it could be chronic subjective disorder. That's when the anxiety causes the dizziness. I would rather have anything but this.

Thank you

Yes, i have been going to physical therapy. Vestibular excercises consists of head movements and balancing. My balance is better but the GAD makes my symptoms worse. Anxiety makes everything worse. You wouldn't happen to live in The New England area would you? Men suck! Ever since I have been sick my husband has never been understanding. Not sure how I'm going to get better when family nd friends have treated me like I have the plague, I spend 100 percent of my time alone.

Thanks

No I don't, I live in wisconsin actually =( I wish we lived closer! I know how hard it can be to not be understood. My boyfriend sometimes understands and trys to be there, but everytime he starts acting like he cares and we talk about it, it turns into a fight ending with him telling me my mind is a very powerful thing, and I have the ability to change it! If it were that easy for me, I would change it in a  heart beat! It takes work and time! On you on disability for all of your struggles? I know the hardest thing for me, is going to work feeling like this, so I am wondering if you have to worry about that becuase you have so many struggles so I think that would be so hard for you to try to maintain a job?

I have heard a lot about acupuncture, and all good stuff!!! I hope that you have finally found the relief you need, remeber it takes several treatments to feel relieve though! I know that I have a hard time accepting that, I always want things to change in the blink of an eye!! It has been awhile since I have been to Madison! And I don't understand it, my boyfriend seems annoyed with it but he doesn't leave me, but I wonder what the point of being together is when we barely talk and I can't talk about things like this with him because it whinning and the whining gets annoying I guess.. I understand the whining gets annoying, but............ how does he think feeling like this gets!!! I wish I was blessed with the mind he has, and the health he has!!

Jessamine:

I hope you get this. I was on Xanax for 8 months, I was anxious and dizzy. Didn't help at all. I don't know what Anfranil is. I have tried antidepressants and they also made me more anxious and dizzy. Once in a blue moon I'll take a valium and it makes me go to sleep, but still shake from anxiety and still dizzy. I hope my life will be normal agin someday

Thanks

I have been diagnosed with anxiety, GAD and possibly some form of PTSD. I was told my anxiety was causing the dizziness, nothing helped, they put me on xanax and lorazepam I think it was called, nothing helped it, I thought I was literally dying, and that things were just coming to a head and getting worse, but the more foods I eliminated and found some triggers, the better I got and the dizziness eventually went away, now I only experience it if I eat something that my body doesn't agree with.

By the way, you aren't bothering me at all, if you need more info, I'm happy to give it, if I can help ANYONE with this crap I'm happy.

I'm also in the same boat with a lot you ladies, the husbands or boyfriends aren't supportive, which makes things for you worse I believe, because they are so close to you, that you would expect them to be more understanding and comforting.

Give juicing a thought if you can try it out or have the money to get started, it could change your life, I started with this recent juicing only about a month ago, it has changed my life for sure. Prior to this I only eliminated foods from my diet and ate better, that helped get me back on track and get the symptoms down or eliminated completely.

This is actually the movie that inspired me, I was so moved by it I actually cried a bit, I have or had all those symptoms they had, and more. Link is here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gpLQwWKb3l8

To the Women of the world, Yes we are jerks, we don't really understand anything except our own
agenda and thats beer, sports, and air brushed women. That is until we have our "First Panic Attack".

From that point on our IQ go's up a few points, we become Religious, Caring, oh and the worlds
biggest cry babies!

For the part I played in this Stupid Self Centered Existence I Humbly Apologize!

My mom has had dizziness off and on for years. Hers is from mold allergies. Have you considered seeing an allergist? Her dizziness is also made worse by anxiety as well.

Hardtime,

I agree with sjennings, mold and even yeast in the body can do it too, just a thought, you may not even have a typical yeast infection, it could be candida of the gut, it also gets in the ear and can cause the dizziness. And mold spores float through the air, doesn't have to be inside your house, around this time of the year and for the next few months, mold spores are high, very high.

Don't miss my post to you a bit further up too, Hardtime.
