Can Imbalance be Caused by Anxiety? Posted: 03-12-06 11:59am
They blame in on anxiety. Sometimes I get
this burning sensation that runs through
my head and I feel like someone is pushing
my head down and I want to pass out.
After the episode, I become very weak and
tired. Is this part of having a chemical
embalance of the brain/anxiety? I have
had to hold onto grocery carts in the
passed just to look normal and not make a
spectical of myself. I become afraid of
going anywhere because I am afraid it's
going to happen again and I'll be alone.
I take anxiety meds and they seem to work,
after five years I have found the correct
meds that work for me. Please advise.
It seems reasonable that you continue
taking anxiety medications regularly and
attend regular psychotherapy sessions.
Symptoms of imbalance can be caused by
various diseases/disorders, including
anxiety. You can also go to an
ENT-specialist to exclude inner ear
disorder as a reason for imbalance.
