| Extreme Dizziness? Help!
As I was in the process of waking up this morning, I kept tossing and turning in the sheets and kept feeling extremely dizzy. I sat up and my whole room was spinning...I could not keep focus on anything. I sat there a minuete and it went away. I got out of bed and made it to my couch where I then called my mother for advice. She asked if I had eaten the day before and I told her yes. I had not been drinking the night before...nothing unusual. We got off the phone and I showered still feeling sick and uneasy. When I got out of the shower and bent my head down to wrap the towel around my head everything started spinning again and I collapsed. Now, I do take prozac for depression and I had forgotten to take it the past few days, and I HAVE done this before and have NEVER had such a problem. I sat down trying to keep my cool and not panic. I took deep breaths and tried to focus on something until I felt somewhat normal again. Just to make sure it was not in my head, I forced myself to bend over again and see if I had the awful dizzy feeling again. I did...I noticed if I did NOT keep my head upright...I would feel this almost undescribable feeling again. If I tilted my head down or back...it was awful. Has anyone else ever had this problem? Does anyone know what might have caused these dizzy spells? I sat in one spot for an hour and finally it went away...and I am finally feeling a little better, I just wish I knew what on earth would cause this extreme dizziness. Also.....I have suffered from panic attacks in the past and I don't think this is panic related , but I could be wrong....I just never had quite a dizziness caused from bending over or backward. Anyways..anyones help will be greatly appriciated. Thank you for your time- Linziloo
