Extreme dizziness

Hi,

i am new here. I have had severe anxiety for 2 years now. I like to refer to anxiety as "it". It sounds better.

i use to get severe panic attacks.

The past 4 months have been okay, I work 12 hours a day, 5 days a week. I am also planning my wedding.

until last Friday night I have been nothing but extremely dizzy/lightheaded and this hasn't stopped , it's been a week now. I went to the doctors and checked my blood pressure and it was normal then.

I keep thinking of the worst. Is this extreme dizziness normal for 'it' ??? Sometimes I feel sick or my heads more dizzy when I get up real quickly too.

Please let let me know 🙂

When this happens just quietly just sit back down for a minute till the dizziness goes away then slowly stand and return to what ever you were doing I get it often nothing to worry about possibility is short term low blood pressure causing dizzy spell if your not fainting dont worry to much

Thank you for responding. This helps me in so many ways,you have no idea 🙂
