Middle of the day anxiety or something else?

[Matticus1983]

So I'm fine from 8-1pm. After that I get weak, nauseous, shaky, dizzy, very anxious, confused, panicky, exhausted. I thought it might be blood sugar but that could t be it as I always eat lunch before I feel like hell. Lately I've been waking at 330 am some mornings, I don't know If maybe a reason? But during the day I feel blanched close to passing out but never passing out. I can't figure out If these episodes are subdued anxiety/panic attacks or I've got something seriously wrong. I go to the gym 4 days a week. Sometimes panicky after that. I just can't differentiate something actually wrong or panic? I feel trapped. My mind things of all kinds of things, blood sugar, blood pressure, heart problems, blood problems, cancer. You name it. Used to be I could say alright this is panic or anxiety, but it's not like typical anxiety or panic. It comes on slow, then I find myself needing to lay down and go to sleep. My diet is pretty healthy, I take multi vitamins, I'm decently fit. I don't understand. Every day I feel the same way. Lack of sleep, waking too early, too much gym? I dunno. If I knew what I was having was just a damn panic episode I could deal with it and it would be over. Buy the odd way in which these episodes present themselves leaves me obsessing over them. They're just different from what I know a panic attack to be. I wonder If they are subdued episodes from taking the Clonazepam 3 times a day.? Or If maybe it my sleep cycles causing it. I feel like hell most days. Low energy, low mood, just sick. Sleep maybe?

Hello have you ever checked your blood surgar with a glucose monitor during these episodes? Even though you eat it could be reactive hypoglycaemia which means that your body is making excess insulin. Not a dangerous condition in the sense it could be what your eating

I used to have this this feeling. Like I'm feeling weak, dizzy and about to pass out. I usually feel this when my HA is high and when I'm not getting enough sleep. My vision also looks somewhat dimmer and I would wake up and get palpitations from my afternoon naps or in the middle of the night. Everything would go back to normal whenever I stop worrying too much and getting enough sleep. I think yours is anxiety and stress from lack of sleep. My advice is try to get a good quality sleep and don't go to gym if you feel exhausted and see if your symptoms will go away.

Sounds like anxiety.

[B]Matticus1983[/B], at first I though you stole my life, when I read your post, I was sad for what's happening to you, but kind of relived, because I myself, have the exact symptoms. All morning until right around 1pm I feel great and then boom, lightheadedness, eyes are getting dimmer, I feel weak and like I am gonna pass out. I did all of the necessary tests but head MRI, which I will do in couple of months, because this is unbearable.

If you come up of something that makes this go away please share, I will do the same.

Hope you (we) get better very soon.

MacUSA,
I found my blood sugar to be fine. I think it's anxiety from being fatigued. Lack of good sleep, over exertion in the gym etc. Just being in the gym sends me into panic mode which is probably running my energy levels down. Then when I'm just wore out around early afternoon, my panic turns it around on me to think something is actually wrong when there is not. Most of us are used to feeling hyper alert and vigilant constantly so when we get fatigued or just tired It seems odd to us. We overanalyze and then we go into what If thinking.

I was actually thinking on purchasing glucose monitor and see what's going on. On all my doctor tests my sugar was in great shape, I did 6 check ups in the last year and a half and all came back great.
