Anxiety issue or medical?

i keep getting impending doom and left sided sinking head/head sensations when moving head or moving my left foot certain way. My mum is saying this is just anxiety but idk I think there’s something wrong with my nerves or ears/balance or something serious going on but she’s just brushing it off as anxiety as I do have health anxiety and anxiety but idk my guy is genuinely feeling like somethings wrong like I keep sitting down and lying down most of the time to avoid this scary feeling.

Vision feels like it’s drifting

My vision sometimes feels like it’s drifting not sure how to explain it but it’s like it’s slowly moving or something I assume that it’s just due to tiredness as I’ve got my eyes tested and everything’s fine!?

When will It get better.

I’ve been anxious and depressed this whole year and recently I’ve gotten a bit better since starting sertraline but I’m still not fully better I’m still so miserable and I just want my life back again I’m still getting head sensations like pulling, swaying, spinning, dropping, I still keep getting panic attacks, I keep just feeling scared/impending doom most of the time, I don’t feel real, I feel like somethings wrong with me and I’m going to die, everyday I’m terrified I will die, every symptom I get I’m terrified, I have no energy, and even my family’s reassurance isn’t helping me. I feel like doctors have missed something and something is actually slowly killing me and I won’t believe nothings wrong unless I get a full body scan I don’t want to live everyday in fear but I don’t know how to get out of it, I’ve tried sertraline, a psychologist, and techniques and nothings fully helping me :(

Went for a walk and got a panic attack.

(Sorry for long text)

So I was going a walk at around 12amish with my cousin to meet my aunties boyfriend and at first I was feeling ok until I started walking uphill and I was getting pretty exhausted then I was running a bit to catch up with my cousin cause she’s a fast walker then my chest and breathing started going downhill which is probably due to my low iron so anyways we finally met my aunties boyfriend then was walking back home but I started feeling scared and when I was walking my left side head/foot felt unbalanced/sinking/impending doom so then I started overthinking it and started panicking then I started to not be able to breath even more than I already was I was crying breathing heavy and just terrified so I had to sit down for a bit but then afterwards I just carried on and I rushed ahead of my cousin and aunties boyfriend and ran upstairs into the flat and went upstairs and just started hyperventilating infront of my auntie I’m so embarrassed and terrified please tell me I’m not alone

bad reaction to topiramate

So last December/January this year I was taking Topiramate to help my migraines which at first was fine but a few days after taking it I started getting lightheaded and then it kept going downhill from there I got terrible dizziness/deja vu kinda thing and I was soo terrified this was the worse I’ve felt my whole life and I still think about it I think I might have ptsd from it anyways so yeah then it got worse and worse and eventually I got this shooting in my left foot basically every-time when I walked or moved a certain way I was basically bed bound and I had no appetite I was crying all the time so i eventually stopped the medication and it went away after 2 weeks or so but even though it went away I was still not fixed my anxiety got so bad and I developed depression and I still get dizzy sensations but not as bad as it was has anyone else been through this or similar cause it’s very strange and I don’t know if it was the medication or the medication made my anxiety bad to cause this sensations idk.
