It seems that whenever Im in an interview, meeting with someone, or even just seeing the guidance councilor at school, when Im sitting I feel really dizzy, woozey, and as if everything is tilted sideways. Sometimes I even wonder if Im looking straight or if im tilting my head to the side! I might have anxiety issues but Im not sure and nobody ever recognized it

    Anxiety can cause a heightening of blood pressure which can make you feel dizzy. Also research fight or flight response.

    My advice. Go to a psychiatrist and get medication, seek therapy to get to the bottom of your social anxiety and/or expose yourself to more of these situations so you can get over it and build up a tolerance. That's what I did.

    As you get older and more accustomed to things it won't be as bad.
    Take deep slow cleansing breaths

    Sounds like some sort of performance anxiety to me and maybe a fear of rejection or abandonment thang. I rarely say this but Neptune over there has some damn good advice for you. All the best to you and hang in there.
