It certainly can: You should get an eval by a therapist specializing in anxiety, as well as a thorough physical from yr pcp (just to rule out any physical causes). Dizziness, feeling short of breath or like u r going to pass out, vertigo r common symptoms of panic disorder, in which Adrenalin is released (fight or flight reaction) when there is no true danger. Exposure based therapy & other cog-behav tx is best.
