As my dizziness symptoms subside. I have symptom drift for sure, including some “old friends” that haven’t surfaced for years. But what I am noticing is that the baseline - the underlying feeling/anxiety/fear is the same, no matter what the symptom is. And I love the iceberg analogy. That’s super helpful! Thank you!!!

Thank you so much! I have been making progress since following your channel. Emotions have been surfacing with many ups and downs, symptom drift etc. I definitely have been feeling grief, guilt, and self blame for time and money lost the past 4-5 years for not figuring this out sooner. When you mentioned grief over lost time, I could totally relate. It felt a sense of relief hearing that this is normal for some people during the healing process. Again, thank you so much! You are a blessing!

Crazy how much it feels like it applies. Been dissociative for 1 1/2 years straight after some trauma or chronic stress. Then I tried EFT, had a huge emotional release, was connected to my body (senses and emotions) again for 2 days, and then went back to dissociation due to stress. Since then, I go back and forth. Mostly dissociative, but sometimes back in my body. But when I am, I feel all the underlying anxiety, my nervous system goes into alarm mode, and I become dizzy / brain foggy again. My window of tolerance for experiencing senses and emotions shrinked to the size of a pea. Also, when I am back in my body, I constantly check myself and have lots of fear and mental loops, to become worse again. And I also had moments of grief, realizing what I had been deprived of all this time, not being connected to my body. But I am positive it is only a matter of time. Like you said, to weather this 😁 Especially interesting, that you mention the secondary gain some people can get due to being sick. I thought of it as well, and my therapist asked me about it. Whether having persistent symptoms maybe gives me some benefits I hold onto. I am not sure if I do. But if I am dizzy / dissociative / mentally zoned out, I can use it as an excuse if I fail a university exam. I do not have to think or have other people think I am insufficient by nature.
@TheSteadyCoach8 ай бұрын
Wow, this is an incredibly accurate description of what I was talking about here. When you're back in your body (which of course is a good idea ultimately), you're back in touch with all that alarm and stress. I'm glad the 4th point made some sense to you. I NEVER think people WANT to be dizzy, but the anxiety people have when they're recovering sometimes just lets me know about other areas where we'd better do some work.

My Genesis of my TMS symptoms was 20 months ago after my mom dying unexpectedly and getting covid just tipped my cup over so to speak. But dizziness and light headedness is the new flavor for the last 6 weeks. And its co insidious with my anxiety,😢 I want so bad to be done with this its threatening my job and I'm the bread Winner full Time and I'm doing everything I know not to respond to the dizziness when Triggered by my eyes or anxiety. I don't think I have a secondary gain from my symptoms but I do wonder if letting go of the symptoms means letting go of my mom and accepting the permanents of her being gone forever. The worst part is every time I try and do emotional deep dive or work my lightheadedness and dizziness kicks up as if to protect the unconscious emotion from becoming conscious.

Another great vid! Particularly appreciate you flagging up how subconscious ‘achiever’ perfectionist patterns maintain and perpetuate symptoms. And how the psyche is doing this under the wire at a deeper level to keep us ‘safe’ (obviously this is mostly a phantom from unresolved past events and adaptations which are no longer required). Thus the symptoms are serving a very real evolutionary imperative. Namely that of survival in an apparently still dangerous environment. It really can be so subtle too. As I know from personal and professional experience! Identifying and resolving these old pattern (habits) at the root, to fully extinguish the fire is as you say essential. Otherwise the smoke may still keep coming in the form of these and other NS imperatives/drift. Yonit knows her stuff! ❤

This does make a lot of sense on what's going on! Psych DR's I've met, don't seem to understand how the dizziness can be related to trauma / depression / DPDR etc etc. (I don't know if it's actually in the DSM, that I can find). I've been looking into meditation in hopes that it will help. (I'm really treatment resistant). What is really weird is though, there have been occasions where I've felt better! Starting on thyroid medicine, for the first 3 hours or so, I felt completely 'normal'. No symptoms or anything. (I can't say it was placebo because, I was terrified of how I would react to the medicine, for the first time). Really weird because, I never felt good again on it. Watching this video, does make sense how doctors try and push seeing a counselor / therapy though. I have done that for usually 2 -3 times a week but, never noticed any benefit from it personally. (Idk. I guess this comment is a partial rant. lol.) I wish it did help me a lot like it does for most people. I'm just frustrated in not being able to feel better.

Hi! I’ve recently discovered your channel and maybe you can help me out to throw some light regarding my recent balance/dizziness problem. I’m 39 years old and in November this year I had my 1st vertigo episode in the middle of the night. It only lasted for a few seconds but it was intense. The problem is that since that night I have been suffering from let’s say “subtle” balance/dizziness disorder. It mainly affects me when standing still or sitting talking to people while following their faces with my eyes,etc . I can also feel it while walking at home, changing direction, focusing on different objects. However there are things in which I feel perfectly normal like: - Driving (only when stopping in roundabouts and when focusing on passing cars I can feel imbalance) - Running and walking in a focused direction - And the most funny one is when using Virtual Reality Headsets. I like to play ping pong and I’m a flight simulation fan and when doing these activities I don’t feel any balance or dizziness issues whatsoever. During this time I have visited an ENT (after the vertigo attack) who checked my hearing and also checked if I still was positive in Vertigo but everything was OK and hearing was perfect. Also I visited a Neurologist who thought my dizziness could be a residual part of the Vertigo aftermath. A Brain MR was performed and everything brain related seems to be OK . I also visited an ophthalmologist and again everything was fine. So far nothing looks like it is off (but something is definitely off…)

I have a pineal cyst detected in an MRI scan. Allegedly, it's small, 6 mm. I've had symptoms of PPPD and MDDS for several years. Do you have any experience with the possibility that a pineal cyst could be causing these symptoms?
@TheSteadyCoach8 ай бұрын
Hi there, I have seen others with pineal cysts. The only person who can answer this for sure is your neurologist. I would ask him or her directly: "In your opinion, is the pineal cyst the cause of my dizziness symptoms?" If the answer is no, or I'm not sure, it makes sense to address your symptoms as NCD. I have seen people with all sorts of abnormalities (including brain tumors) get better when they realized those abnormalities were not actually the cause of symptoms, but rather trapping them in a fear cycle.
