Hi everyone, I'm new to the group but have suffered from/with anxiety for almost 20 years. Long story short, I started taking zoloft 6 years ago, it has helped but I still have attacks. I just started working full time 9 months ago. 3 months into my new job I started getting dizzy spells. I've been diagnosed with vertigo. 2 weeks into physical therapy and I feel horrible. For the past 2 days my legs and arms feel so heavy. I almost feel like I can't walk. I feel super tense, like I just ran a marathon. This is really worrying me. I am afraid I'm going to fall down ( I haven't, but you know how anxiety is, you fear what hasn't even happened). I'm tired and feel run down all the time. I have trouble sleeping. I read a post recently, I'm not depressed, but I can see how anxiety can lead to depression. It's a tough battle for sure. I'm afraid to try another med cause I've had bad reactions to so many before my dr. Finally prescribed zoloft.
