Dwindling descent thread
You know, over the last seven or eight months, it's just been one problem after another for me. And I have to admit, sometimes I made a bigger deal out of stuff than I needed to. So all that really led to nonstop anxiety and then a pretty severe bout of depression. But I think I've finally managed to snap out of the anxiety and depression-I mean, it's not like I feel exactly the way I did last year, but at least things are moving in the right direction.
Now, though, here's where it gets weird-my body just won't sotp giving me these terrible physical symptoms. Like constant dizziness and light-headedness that won't go away no matter waht. I weent to a few doctors for an MRI, and they didn't find anything unusual or out of the ordinary, which is frustrating because none of them seem willing to really die in and help fiure this out. It's making me feel pretty desperate too since these symptoms are seriously affecting my quality of life.
I keep wondering if all this anxiety and depression might have caused some kind of chemical change in my brain that's still messing with me even though I'm trying to get better. So, does anyone here ever experience dizziness from anxiety or depression? And did you manage to shake it off once you started feeling better? Does it just take time for things to sort themselves out, or is there something else going on that might need more than just waiting around?

Hey! Totally get where you're coming from with anxiety- it's like my own personal tornado of issues. First time I got hit hard, I started hearing that constant ringing in my ears (tinnitus), and honestly, it's never fully gone away, but it does chill out when things are calmer for me. Also, the vertigo hits pretty hard during rough patches, though it tends to ease up a lot in warmer weather- weird how seasons play into it like that.
I've seen so many doctors over the years and everything always comes bak normal, which is super frustrating because you're just like, "What's going on with me?" But yeah, I think psychogenic pain might be part of what's happening for both of us. Sending you all the best vibes!
