Hey everyone,

I know that there are loads of people needing help and discussions being posted but I do hope someone will help reading this.

I am a bit confused about symptoms, I feel like I am on edge of blurred vision (if that makes any sense) and even when I'm not feeling particularly anxious I just get a lightheaded deliourous feeling? Its so off putting and frustrating because I know I've come a long way from first being diagnosed but then not sure why I keep experiencing these symptoms?

Sorry I know it doesn't really make much sense but find it hard to put into words 😖

I'm having the same symptoms.. Are you on any meds? My vision is blurry and I feel off balance..

3

No, I was prescribed sertraline but didn't take it, wasn't too keen on experiencing the side effects. That would freak me out.

Are you?

4

Would you like to talk about it, I feel I can help

5

Sure, do you suffer also?

6

You can private message me if that helps

7

I have done for a long time and have managed with it very well

8

Could you explain how this all started

9

I know this can be hard to talk to a stranger about so take your time

10

Sorry not sure on how to pm on here. I've suffered since I fell of my horse in march, had surgery and suffered from headaches and thought that they had missed a hemorrhage, then it just kept being something else, from ebola to tumours!

11

Yes I take ativan as needed lexapro 10 mg and propanolol 20 mg so I think my vision may be one of my meds.

12

It doesn't sound like you're suffering from anxiety but I'm no expert the accident could have resulted in medical issues which have given you this feeling were you fine before hand

13

No I'm all clear no medical issues, had all sorts of tests. Just anxiety I'm afraid. I did have a misalignment in my neck vertebrae but again all sorted.

14

I was an anxious person before but nothing noticeable, and wasn't health related. But thanks anyway for trying to help.

15

For me personally what helped was stopping all medication changing my diet and regular exercise. I worked on my self confidence and self esteem and socialising really helped. The key is don't feed the fear in your head it is just your worry that stops you from moving on. I couldn't work leave my house or even answer the phone so I know it's tough but trust in yourself and don't let it beat you good luck

It does sound like your meds, plus dizziness is a side effec so that could be why you feel off balance.

Good luck!
