Just doing something different immediately makes a difference.

In crowds I keep my head down or in a room with many people I will focus on one person only when I talk. I find that meditation has really helped me with focus and I can partially block out peripheral sounds when I focus in, hard but makes a difference. Other than that....just "getting out of Dodge" really helps to do a restart with interference. Realize these are not permanent solutions but short term coping skills but I think that these help me to navigate the long term.

Best wishes,

Thanks for your reply.

I’m tired of feeling bad. I’m not scared of my dizziness. I know I’m not dying and it’s not getting worse. But I just want it to go away. It comes on even when I’m not thinking about it. It’s hard to explain to people without them assuming it’s psychological.
