A member asked:
Can anxiety make you feel "lightheaded" and out of it all day? blood tests and scans have never showed anything else, but for years i have these times
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Bouts of significant anxiety can cause episodes of feeling lightheaded (often precipitated by breathing more deeply or more quickly). Other causes are also possible, but if the symptoms are longstanding and the testing is all negative, anxiety is a more likely cause.
