its now over a month and i am getting worse. the weird panic and vision symptoms are almost their all the time. when an intense one washes over me my vision goes cloudy like i am looking through a cloud of smoke and it feels like the room has gone colder and people seem almost distant. my head and ear pressure get tighter. i feel lightheaded but inside my head but not spinning vertigo.
i cant believe this is anxiety attacks as it only lasts a few seconds at a time but all day i am having mini episodes. i am on citalopram hoping it helps.
can people please put my mind at ease or understand what i am going through?
deja vu and random memories popping in head happen also
these do sound like snxiety symptoms. id dtill reccomend getting tested for anything else just to rule out the possibilities but if all comes back normal anxiety could def cause all those symptoms. just breathe and accept how you feel it will help it to pass, god bless you
Hey Jonathan honey, I’m sending you a big hug! I totally understand what you are going through. I have to agree with everything “addie” said. Once you have it confirmed that it’s nothing else. I’m afraid, it’s then a case, of “coming to terms” that indeed “anxiety is the culprit. Not so easy to master! I know it’s easy for others to give advice, but ultimately, it’s up to you. Not easy when you’re having all these weird symptoms.” fingers crossed", your meds will “kick in” soon. In the meantime, try not to fear what you are experiencing. Tell yourself, "it will pass’. Because it will! Message me anytime and privately, if you prefer. Hope you feel better soon. You will get there! Donna xxx
Hi jonathan
You sound like you are having a tough time. Anxiety is like a rotton wheel, the more you worry about the symtoms the worse they get. Meds take a while to work so try to relax abit by having some herb tea and use an incence boiler with lavender or lemonbarm. I know these seem simple answers but they help me so much. Try to do something nice like watch a funny film. before bed have a nice warm bath and try to eat healthy and try a bit of excersize. The more you do for yourself the more in control you will feel. If things continue to overwhelm you see your GP asap. Ive had depression and anxiety for over five years soknow what you go though.
Hi Donna,
Thank you for the message. Doctors have done tests. They did an MRI years ago and bloodwork and eeg test and all came back fine. I have a neurologist and doctor that I see and they wont send me for any more tests because they feel it is anxiety but I just cant get my head round how it can be. It feels so physical and I cant cope with this anymore how can anxiety cause the weird panic and vision symptoms are almost their all the time especially the intense one washes over me my vision goes cloudy like i am looking through a cloud of smoke and it feels like the room has gone colder and people seem almost distant.
How can this happen?

have you had your thyroid checked?
Hi Alesha thryroid test came back fine. Its all neurolgical symptoms that I am getting mainly visual and panic thru body. I am hoping it is not anything serious
hi dena it cant be anxiety surely. it is going worse i am pretty sure it is a brain tumor or something. weird thing is i dont have headaches but its weirdest feeling in head
symptoms below
cloudy vision
buzzing feeling in head
hear pulse in my ears and head esp when going bed
adrenaline rushes through body
lightheaded feeling
head feels really heavy but no pain
blurry vision when i panic more
i am convinced this is a brain tumor? no one i have spoke to has these anxiety symptoms or panic attack symptoms
if it come normal than it is normal, what u trying to describe about your experience possibly and confirm it is just anxiety and panic, u just think to much…i had also experience what u describe everytime i feel depressed and anxious..
hope u will be fine soon, dm me if u need some advice
hi azwty thanks for your message. i cant seem to shrug the feelings off its going worse. all those symptoms i mentioned are happening frequently throughout the day. could it be the doctors and neurologists are all wrong and i have a brain tumor or blood issue with my brain.
i cant see how anxiety can cause these symptoms? what symptoms do you get?
i sometime feel im going to fall because i felt like unbalanced in my head, my eyes blurr , im panicking every second.. i felt lightheaded and worse when it comes to sleep, i will hear voices in my head like conversation and chatting , just like hallucination, i think im going to be mad , sometimes feel i psycotic because that experience, i feel so scared and and anxious every day, i experience it almost about 4 month, than i started to read about mindfullness , tips to treat anxiety and so on, ill do anything to be better and try every supplement, thank god after got thru hell, i can say that im now more calm and can control my anxiety..im not take any anti depression because lastime the withdrawal make me so sick so i started to search for any natural way to treat this disease.
I hope that u dont too focus on your thought having brain tumor or what so ever, focus how u can be positive and how to handle the anxiety and try doing something fun to distract u
Well…, I would get that checked!
