What Causes Severe Dizziness While Driving?

I just started having symptoms about 3 weeks ago while driving like I m falling,it has been so intense that I had to see my Doctor for this and he has prescribed Paxil 10mg which I have only been on for about 5 days ago and really have not notice any changes. I also forgot to mention that I don t like open spaces like driving thru countryside. Can you give me some answers or some suggestions to let me know I can overcome this anxiety.

Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
By your history and description, possibility of phobia is more likely.
So better to consult psychiatrist and get done counselling sessions. Try to identify stressor in your life and start working on its solution.
You may need anxiolytic drugs too.
Counselling along with drugs will help you a lot.
Avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm.
Be positive and stay strong.
Don't worry, you will be alright.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
