About a week ago at work I got light headed and dizzy (I believe from being dehydrated and super busy at work). Since then I have been unable to focus, been constantly anxious, feeling disassociated, and feel like I’m about to pass out whenever I’m in meetings or just public places. I believe this is being caused by the constant stress at my job and have told my boss I cannot keep up with the current role and I need to take a step back. Years ago I dealt with anxiety caused by hormonal issues, but this time around I think it might just be burnout. It feels like emotionally I went from being on top of it all to not being able to handle even going to the store in an instant.

Is there anyone else out there that can relate? Does anyone have tips? I eat healthy, work out consistently, meditate, be mindful, and try to reframe this as a positive, but I am so scared that is going to linger and I’ll need to quit my job. I have a doctors appointment for Monday but of course I want to get through this as quickly as possible. 

Thanks for listening!
