Answer 4

Dizziness, feeling dizzy or light-headed are common symptoms of stress, fear, and anxiety.

When you panic or feel anxious your body automatically goes into fight flight response and you begin to breath shallower and faster and get the feeling you would have before a race or interview. The shallow and faster breathing is what causes the dizziness. breathing in through your nose and counting to 7 then out through your mouth and counting to 5 helps or even into a paper bag.

Also people with anxiety tend to breath from there upper chest which can cause you to be come dizzy faster during panic. to see if you do this lay or sit down and look down as you breath, if your upper chest moves in and out instead of just below rib cadge i would suggest a breathing CD and listen to it just before bed, paul mckenna does the best and has a lot for anxiety sufferers.

i myself suffered from GAD (generalised anxiety disorder) last year and after months of CBT therapy i can control my anxiety.
