Dizzy

When I get sensory overload I get extreme fatigue, need to rest ASAP or I'll fall down, (literally!).

It might be an idea to check with your GP just to rule out something else. I was having headaches, dizziness and nausea, thought it was anxiety but it turned out to be anaemia which I was hospitalised with. Best not to take any chances, just in case.

I get light headed and nauseous if i have a severe panic attack so if it correlates with a period of extreme stress then that might be it. Otherwise or even if it is panic, getting checked out by docs would make sense.  

The dizzy and sick feeling I get is, I believe, from anxiety. It can also cause a rushing sound in my ears. No migraines though. And anything can trigger it, which is becoming rather tedious. I'm sorry I don't know if it's the same cause for you. 

Thanks guys. Pretty sure it's from anxiety but sometimes I think it may be independent or possibly just precede it

I do get this, but I also have an anxiety disorder- I think that for me, sensory overload makes me very anxious and that's the cause of the physical symptoms.

Evening JT.  If you don't get anyone who also reports dizziness and migraines from sensory overload, I would try and see the doctor maybe?  There could be a comorbidity going on & best to get it checked out.

Kind regards. Number.
