I haven't posted one of these yet..I am afraid I am the only person who feels the way I do..
My eyes always feel heavy and I feel light headed a lot..I feel like I need to Blare my eyes for them to feel open and normal!
I have been to the Eye doctor and he said I have dry eyes But i don;t think that's what this is..
I am just curious if anyone else feels this way..
I just in general never feel well till later in the evening...its weird..maybe its something i have in my head.
I am going through the program and I feel like It will help me! But I feel i am alone with my symptoms.

I don't have that problem. Mine is I feel a pain in my upper right arm, and I huff alot. The dr. told me the pain in my arm is from not breathing (something about blood not circulating) and did not really realize how much I huffed, until peolpe kept asking me why I was huffing them. I realized I was holding my breath and not realizing it and when I did breath it was a huff. I think all our bodies react differently to panic/stress and so on. But maybe you could try going to a different doctor just to make sure what it is. Hope you feel better soon. by the way when I started breathing the pain in my arm went away.

I have had alot of weird physical symptoms, but the one with the eyes is something I personally haven't heard of before. Lightheadedness is always associated with anxiety. Have you been to any kind of doctor other than an eye doctor? It's never a bad idea to have a thorough medical workup with bloodwork and things. I would suggest using the relaxation CD's several times and see if they help. I have been amazing at how much they have helped me.

April B you are not alone, I have the same thing with my eyes and lightheaded. My eye Dr. also told me I have dry eyes. I kind of blew it off, maybe I'll start using my eye drops, can't hurt. Hang in there. God Bless

I didn't post or anything on the site yesterday. I haven't felt so great of and on over the last couple of days. I have had phyical symptoms off and on for a long time but so much so over the last 2 months. I have been to the doctor several times. Mostly pains in stomach/rib and chest area more often on the right side. I have had the chest pains before but the others are new. The chest pain is probably heartburn/Gerd. But not sure what the rest is. I'm sure you all know how you can fixate on and wonder about thing which probably makes it worse. And I have found it is not a good idea to research on the internet most of the time. You find alot of condictions it could be that just makes things more scary. I too have had things with my eyes went to the eye doctor as well , mine where floaters , I try to live with them and not let them scare me. I also get spacey , tingly , headaches. Sometimes worry about pains and things when they happen too much wondering what it could be or become. Sometimes I wonder if it is all related and one day a doctor will link it together and tell me something bad. One doctor did tell me about anxiety and perscribe me something which I never took. Shortly after I got insurance and all this started a few months ago when I was on vacation. Some days are better than others , sometimes its good for a few days bad for a week etc. I know what it's like and hope all of you with physical symptoms find relief. Also sometimes I have physical symptoms even when I don't feel anxious and some time they even bring on anxiety. Does this happen to anyone eles?
