Before I went on meds I had issues with anxiety and vertigo/dizziness. I didn't always connect the two symptoms, I just assumed I had an inner ear problem. But no amount of ENT visits solved the issue. Until I went on anti-anxiety medication. The dizziness cleared up at the same time as the anxiety (about a month in). Apparently that dizzy feeling can be the result of a bad flight or fight response. 

And this just isn't something therapy could have helped. I learned so many techniques to pinpoint when I'm catastrophizing something, or getting tunnel vision around a particular issue. But nothing was going to clear up that overwhelming anxious feeling once that faulty flight or fight was triggered, because even though I was no longer worrying about the trigger my anxiety couldn't go away because my brain was now convinced I was falling. So I'd get stuck in this constant feedback loop of falling sensation, fight or flight response, falling sensation... 

Therapy was a huge help for managing my day to day anxious thoughts, probably the best help. But for the anxiety/panic attacks I was dealing with I really needed to address the physical symptoms of anxiety. It took me years to accept this because I always felt as though meds were the lazy way. That mental health issues should be dealt with mental health therapy. It's very important to remember that mental health disorders are disorders, and they have physical symptoms that need treating too.
