So every other day or so, I take my dog over on a walk to this other neighborhood, she loves going there. you have to walk through the woods a bit to get there, it's up hill. So once I get up the hill to the neighborhood, I'm feeling okay, then we walk a ways down the sidewalk (downhill) then we make a right turn down another sidewalk, which is also going downhill.. and suddenly, I start feeling weird, I feel out of place, disoriented, freaking out basically, something just feels off, and we start walking uphill at that point, I still don't feel better..I hate this feeling, it lasts til we make our way around the circle, and I go back downhill in the woods and get back to my neighborhood..
I just wonder what is setting off my anxiety about this.. its it a change in altitude messing with my sinuses? Not a very big one, but the neighborhood is up on a hill kind of.. Anyone with anxiety knows that any subtle change in how the body is feeling can set off an attack when there is danger of one precipitating..
and what should I do to avoid having this attack in the future?
