Could Light Headedness And Dizziness Be Related To Anxiety?

My head for a couple days feels like I had a few drinks, the lightheaded dizzy fog buzzed feeling. My heart feels like its racing. prior to this I have been diagnosed with anxiety, wore a heart holter and been put on BP medicine for high blood pressure. Does all this boil down to anxiety

Hi

I understand your concern.

Heart reacing, Palpitations, Headache, dizziness all are can be due to anxiety.

But need to control blood pressure is must.

Elevated blood pressure can also lead to all these symptoms.

So go for regular check up and take medicines for blood pressure.

For anxiety mild dose of etizolam or lorazepam will beneficial.

Do physically fit , exercise, meditations etc.

Take proper food and sleep.

Thank you.

Take care.
