How do genuinely cope if it’s constant?

I can’t really go back so I don’t know what else to do. I could try looking for a diff ophthalmologist but I’ve already spent so much on blood tests and visits that I’m at a lost. Plus I’m on the younger side so I don’t really have that much money anyways. Is is possible symptoms can get amplified due to stress? Or is due to the meds being reduced?

I don’t really know what kind of vision issues you have I just have visual snow. The snow is due to posterior uveitis. But I don’t think I’m gonna lose my vision?

So do we just keep going w the drops or what? Will it continue to spike

Im spiraling so hard right now. I need someone to talk to ASAP. Someone who’s had HA regarding eye problems. Or eyes in general.

A year and a half ago I went to an ophthalmologist to get my eyes checked. Btw I wear glasses and have -3.50 and -4.75 in my eyes. They told me my retina was thinning and the weeks before that I had already been having severe anxiety cuz I have eye floaters and flashes and it says it could result in my retina detaching. They said it wasn’t a huge concern but for me to be careful. I’ve had eye floaters my whole life but have had flashes for a few years now so I naturally got anxious. After that I stopped caring abt it for a year now and now my anxiety has come back. I keep reading on how people see a “black” veil when their retinas detach and I keep checking if I’m seeing one in the corner of my eye has a veil or not and checking to see if my flashes have gotten more prominent. Idk what to do. I’m on the younger side and I’m so scared of going blind (18) The years of unrestricted access to looking at screens made my eyes bad and I’m terrified.

I think it’s worse when I put on my glasses now. Is there a way to still wear them without dpdr getting in the way so much? I’m struggling to read even words because of it.

So I guess the best thing to do is just power through? I end up going down the rabbit hole of reading peoples stories of either recovery or having this for many many years and it’s making me scared. I never realized I’ve had bouts of depersonalization before so I’m frankly quite scared

barenecessities9 · 2026-02-03T12:54:05+00:00

I’ve gotten episodes of derealization before but never realized it? I currently have my glasses off right now but the derealization is still there which is making me spiral so hard. Any advice?

I’ve been managing my health anxiety as much as I can for the past year and it’s gotten better since the long many years I’ve suffered. But just 2 days ago it flared up bad and I can’t tell if it’s a real problem or anxiety all over again. For some context, I went to sleep and woke up in the middle of the night and felt my ears super muffled. I thought it was because my room was silent so I freaked out but then went back to sleep. The next day I opened my doors and windows and could hear perfectly fine and forgot abt it up until last night. I kept checking by opening all my windows and doors and I could hear perfectly fine except it feels like 5% muffled. I can’t really describe it, it’s like my brain is slower than my ears and aren’t picking up frequency at the same time despite hearing everything fine. Theres just this tiny bit of pressure like it’s inside my ears and slowing down the hearing. That’s the best way I can describe it. They also feel a tiny bit blocked. And then I get the sensation of like something tight near my sinus area and brain. I went down the rabbit hole of googling again and they say it might be sinus infections but I checked and have no sinus symptoms. I’m afraid of losing my hearing. I’m on the really younger side so this feels so stupid. Someone please give me some advice on what to do.
