Brief dizziness is freaking me out

[Regnistel]

Been on 50mg of Zoloft for a little over two years now. I'm also on .5 Lorazepam. The lorazepam is to be taken when I'm having an anxiety attack. My job is fairly stressful so I've been taking it more than normal. This last week I've been experiencing short (like...1s or 2s tops) bouts of dizziness. I've also had a spotty memory for a bit, more than I remember having. Ironic.

I'm now freaking out that I've got a brain tumor or something. Help?

I'm sure it's just your anxiety. Having anxiety makes us very sensitive to every sensation and feeling of our bodies.

Thing is, I know you're right. God, anxiety is the fuggin worst.

I wish there was a definitive answer for why we have deal with this. It puts a hault on everything i enjoy. I find it hard to breathe and normally i know im about to have a brief attack. Well sometimes its brief. Sometimes i feel like i can stop. Youtube actually has some really creative breathing exercises that might help you. It helped me about an hour ago and ive been feeling good. They say the best thing to do is be productive and set a task for yourself. Its rough but it helps. God bless.
