The sensation of feeling faint and/or dizzy can be a result of either not eating, depersonalisation or hyperventilation, or a combination of all three! The nausea many people feel can result in them not eating. Not just occasionally missing meals, but simply not eating. This is turn will cause feelings of faintness or dizziness, shaking and an overall sense of weakness.

We forget these sensations are a natural result of not eating and put them down to the anxiety, which in turn adds to the cycle. If we don’t eat we can become more vulnerable to dissociation. Attention to diet is extremely important. If you are experiencing difficulty in being able to eat it is important that you speak with your doctor.

If dizziness or feeling faint is a result of dissociation, we can break the dissociated state, or if it is a result of hyperventilation we can adjust our breathing.
