Peripheral vertigo of psychological origin - anxiety

Symptoms of vertigo with a psychogenic origin are associated with patients with psychological and/or psychiatric disorders. Symptoms manifest with insecurity, feeling faint, dullness, confusion, or feeling as if you are on a boat or something is spinning in your head. Real vertigo is rarely presented. The accompanying somatic symptoms are usually cervical pressure, abdominal discomfort, palpitations, increase in the frequency and desire to urinate, feeling of generalized weakness and fatigue. They usually begin after some crisis or stress. It is diagnosed by a detailed medical history and complete physical examination. Medical treatment is based on the use of certain antidepressants, low-strength neuroleptics or some anxiolytics for a short time. Psychotherapy (psychoeducation with cognitive behavioral therapy) is also necessary to correct or eradicate this disease.
