Hi,
About two year ago I started feeling unwell - nausea, headaches and dizzy spells, which seemed to last most of the day. Only recently I have started to notice this feeling comes along with something happening - my birthday, christmas, my cousins wedding. It has been suggested that it is a fear of being out of my comfort zone. I start to think of something at these events that makes me nervous and I can't seem to shake it. I think about it so much that I start to make myself feel sick.
For example - recently had a big birthday and felt sick the whole day, until I made my speech and I felt fine. I just assumed I caught a bug but the more this happens the more I think I was nervous about speaking in public.
I understand it's normal to feel anxious about public speaking or meeting new people but I seem to make myself ill and my latest was I never ate for four days before christmas. (I think it was anxiety for meeting my boyfriends parents.)
Does anyone feel like this or know of a way to get past it, I would appreciate any suggestions you have.
Thanks :)
