Hiya Louane,
I get the same feeling OFTEN, i like your self always relate it to eating and blood sugar levels. I feel like im actually going to die from it sometimes, it feels like my whole body is shutting down. Its truly awful.
Ive been having some therapy and ive learnt deep breathing (it took me an age to master it - but i have finally). It makes me go dizzy for a few seconds (just because im getting much needed oxygen it my lungs etc), but once ive done the breathing for about 5 mins or so it seems to pass.
Hope this helps a little.

Thank you,,it dose help,,,, i just cant belive anxiety is the main cause,,, its so alwful.. i went to the doc,,, and he dont think its my surgar,,, i took a home monitor test thing for like three months, ,and never was my level low, the lowest was like 85...and they say that is normal....
I am glad you have gotten better,, iwill try,, it just scares the you know what out of me,,,,,
thanks again,
louane

Loanne,
Another tip my therapist gave me, is when you get that feeling talk or sing to yourself (obviously you have to breathe to do either). :)
Try it, i walk round the house singing to my baby girl or talk to my self about what ive got to do etc, it may be a slight distraction but for a few minutes peace it works.
If your not breathing right you will feel weak, please give it a go.
Maybe we could form a double act... 'the anxious singing sisters' (lol).
Keep smiling (singing and breathing)

Hi I get weak spells when my sugar levels are low and i also have hypothyroid, can you get checke for them also after a panic attack or severe anxiety you get weak, happened to me last night, it like you feel totally drained.

i cant not get checked for my surgar,, because i cant handley stay 30 min at the doc office well enought four to six hours to check my surgar,,, but i did buy a home monitor and my levels where alwasy in the normal..... as far as thoyoid,,, ihave hypothyoid and i am on meds to get in leveled out,,,,, so i am guessing its anxiety,,, but who knows,, ijust pray with all myheart that it dont happen again,,, i eat soemthing every hour, just in case it was my surgar,,,, i eat whole wheat bread with peanut butter, then i eat my three meals,,, but i was doing that when i had my weak spell,,, but i was just getting ready to eat,,,, so who knows,,
thanks,,,,
and lindslou,,,, i love to sing,,,,, so i will try that,,, thanks,,,,
