Dizziness Seems to Have Subsided, Next Problem

My first post was about the weird dizziness I was having. Since posting here about it last week and reading what others wrote I don't think I have felt it since. So that's good. I think I just realized that "hey dude, you're not actually dizzy" and that was just anxiety symptoms.

So far this year then I've conquered heart anxiety, stomach anxiety, and this dizziness stuff, all of which I was feeling for months. Now all that seems left is my generalized anxiety/random attacks.

Random "mini-attacks" as I call them, are teh most irritating. Usually I'm just minding my own business, nothing stressful going on at all, and I will just feel really, really weird out of nowhere. Heart doesn't race or anything, i feel like, very, very nervous like the girl you liked in middle school just talked to you. Kind of dissacciated with everything around me and I'm in my own head/world.

It sucks. I can deal with it, I just wish it would not happen.

Any ideas?

Hi HT,

I get the same thing. I no longer have the full blown panic attacks that I used to suffer, but I will definitely have times of feeling 'off' all of a sudden, or just days of having random, isolated symptoms.

When this happens, I know that it is time to go back to any coping skills that I have let lapse. Have I been concentrating on doing my progressive muscle relaxation so that my muscles aren't holding tension? Am I doing my breathing exercises? Am I using my positive thinking and mantras as much as possible?

Taking an inventory of what I am doing to manage my anxiety usually lets me know where I can improve to help my situation.

Great progress so far...keep up the good work!

S.C.
