Dizziness and Nausea with Anxiety: Anyone Else?

of course! this happens to me all the time and even sometimes before my actual anxiety sky rockets

✋

I definitely do. As well as other symptoms depending on cause and level of my anxiety.

I get really bad hot flashes and super nauseous. It suuuuucks!

Yea, I get nauseated sometimes. Other times, I get a tad dizzy and feel like I’ve blacked out for a moment.

Yes… this all happens when I am driving or if anyone else drives me any where.

Yes especially nauseous to the point I have to take dramamine to calm my stomach down

Actually about a month ago, I got so nauseous I vomited. That's when my psychiatrist put me on a new med. A benzo. Klonopin

1000%. I always have to tell myself it’s anxiety so I don’t panic even more thinking something is gravely wrong with me.

My ENT said that I get vertigo because of stress induced migraines. Apparently you can have vertigo as your only symptom for migraines which I didn’t know. I notice when I’m really anxious I also get light headed and notice my breathing which makes me even more dizzy. Fun cycles. Haha and I’ve been having stomach issues since I was a kid. My doctor thinks I have IBS and that it’s also triggered from stress.

Yes, it gets worse when dealing with someone who is not organized and constantly changes their mind at the last minute

My IBS flares badly

Fun fact: unless you are hyperventilating, you won't pass out from panic attacks! The neurons responsible for the process of passing out are actually in a completely different part of the brain than where your psychological symptoms driven by anxiety come from. Knowing this helps me not to panic.
