Okay so i have panic attacks as im sure many people do well theres a specific thing about them that scares me and that is the fact that i get dizzy during my panic attacks but not a normal type of dizzy i mean to the point where i want to sit down so itll stop but when i sit down im VERY unsteady and cannot control my thoughts. Its scary other than that i can grasp the fact that these are merely just panic attacks.
EDIT/ 17 year old male. I smoked marijuana when i was 14 or 15 but had a bad trip and stopped since. I do not currently do any drugs.
It's normal to feel a very bad gush of dizziness you need to try to relax and do your breathing techniques deep breathe in through nose let out by mouth slowly.. it's hard I went through 7 months none stop having them I was having them in middle of night in shops on way to shopping everything made me so bad that I even had a 12hr panic attack that ended up going hospital because of it.. are you on any medication for your panic attacks
But it's definitely normal for dizziness
The dizziness is a common during a panic attack. Racing thoughts are another commonality during anxiety and panic as well. There are things that can be done to help this. I completely understand where you're coming from. I feel like all symptoms of panic are scary.
Does the room seem to spin or move when you are very dizzy? That is called vertigo.
That can happen with panic attack also.
I know how scary it can feel but a symptom of overwhelming stress and anxiety.
If you ever need help with the panic, go to you tube and search for Panic attack emergency. They guide you through it. Several to choose from.
Have you seen your doctor about this? It's good to follow up.
A counselor can help you figure out the core of why you get anxiety and panic. This is hard to work through alone.
You tube also has meditations for anxiety as well. Use earbuds and lay down.
very helpful!!
feel better
