How To Overcome The Feeling Of Anxiety, Depression, Vertigo?

Hi, I have been diagnosed with benign positional vertigo, and also low B12 and albumin levels. I have a nearly constant feeling of anxiety and have suffered with depression and migraines in the past. Could all these things be related? I feel my doctor isnt linking these things up?

Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. If your doctor is not thinking these are related, believe him. In other words, anxiety and depression are known to create (imagination) inactivity, sluggishness, heavy head and vertigo. In turn, people with positional vertigo do become apprehensive and anxious about their medical condition. Those are the relationship between them.

Now to elaborate, Because of your medical conditions, you might have become more health conscious, which made you hypochondriac. You started thinking about the future of health, became apprehensive about your conditions etc and became apprehensive, in turn anxious.

Nothing to worry. Ignorance is the key. Learn to ignore. Because your doctor said so. Forget the relationship which you suspected. Drink plenty of water and breath deep. Exercise.

Please post a direct question to me in this website. Make sure that you include every minute details possible. I shall prescribe some psychotherapy techniques which should help you cure your condition.

Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications.
Good luck.
