Psychiatrist,  's  Response
Hello
Welcome to HCM

Dizziness in morning, weakness may occur in any individual because of following things-

- It may be due to postural hypotension. In early morning on getting up from lying down position sudden fall in BP occurs and sudden dizziness and fall occurs. It may present as Syncope.
- It may be some episode of seizure but other features like involuntary jerky movements of body are also seen.
- It may be some non specific anxiety superimposed by Panic Attacks. Due to cigarette smoking the anxiety increases.

I would advise you to please visit a good Doctor or Psychiatrist for proper evaluation.

Thanks
