I don't know about my anxiety level- I know it fluctuates from moment to moment, and depending on what the situation is.
One i would like to ask about/talk about is this one: I get light headed while talking to people like coworkers and then vary light headed after talking to them. Like a "release" as in like "I am done with that" feeling sometimes. I also go blank in my head sometimes when talking to them- I feel stupid and feel like I say stupid things. These are people that I talk to before with conversations and even joked around prior. is this part of anxiety - I don't think I have anxiety to the highest degree, but just a little... any one have any thoughts or suggestions on situations like this?

I get light headed while talking to people sometimes, and it's very distracting. Then after I'm done I feel like I said stupid things. So maybe the opposite of what you're experiencing? For me it is definitely part of the anxiety. It mostly happens when I think I've "overshared."
I just try to push through it, because my tendency would be to avoid that person from then on. I try to realize that it's just an anxiety symptom and tell myself that I can handle it. |

I get that feeling when I dissociate, usually from depersonalization. I don't feel particularly anxious, but I just float away when talking to people face-to-face sometimes. I also try to push through it, but it feels very strange. I don't feel like it's even my voice talking to them at the time.

I had a pretty similar experience just pop out of nowhere a couple weeks ago when I was trying to solve a couple of cell phone issues at the store I got it from. Suddenly, by the time everything was resolved or otherwise explained, I just felt very nauseous and faint. I needed to just blindfold myself the second I got home, lie on my bed and relax as much as possible.
It's pretty scary considering I rarely have any major physical manifestations of my anxiety on that caliber. It seems to be attached to having to talk to other people, particularly when I want help or assistance. It might be just penting up all my anxiety in the first place until it's all over, then it just gushes out all at once. |

Yeah, practicing with things that are hard- i think it could help
Hopefully with in time the anxiety of talking will get less./. I really dislike talking in groups as well- and I haven't for years (like high school was the last time I can remember)

:-( I am sorry to hear that Billi_leli; I have had felt like fainting, actually only fainted once and it was at a brother's friends- so i am not sure it was due to anxiety or what... I remember i dont know what though. I Do agree if you can/able to, to practice with the issue of it. It is one of the reasons why I took the desk job instead of the back in the other room job. I thought it would help with communications and me being so antisocial but then there are some days like today where I find I have been a little rude to people with my responses... part anxiety part of something else with me..
