Hello everyone! I was part of this group over fb but I'm doing a social media cleanse. I'm 28, male, Engineer. I've been suffering from this crap for about 2 years now. When It first went down I thought it was my heart so I've been to plenty of cardiologists and done plenty of tests only to find out that my hear is perfectly fine.
This all started after a panic attack I had back in 2016... after that things have not been the same.
I started to take Effexor about 5 months ago and it did wonders for me! a serious rehabilitation. I started feeling better than ever before.
I do however still get these "unsteady" or "dizzy" feelings when I don't get good sleep.... It sucks! If I sleep well I feel amazing. If I don't sleep well, I feel like someone is pulling the floor from under my feet. I get that feeling you get when your going down some stairs and there is an unexpected extra step that you miss....
I believe that if I had great sleep every day I'd be doing great. How do you guys cope with sleep problems? does lack of sleep exacerbate your symptoms?
Thank you all, Carlos

I do feel that getting good rest is helpful in any case. In this situation, good rest is hard to come by. It does help me to tolerate the day better, and the feelings of dizziness, motion, wooziness. For me, the biggest component is getting over the fear factor. The fear of feeling woozy, that I might fall or pass out. The fear part is the worst for me. 3a
