Hi, im 20 years old, and for about a week now ive been having these weird pressure in the back of head , neck sometimes on the top of my head and sometimes my left eye i dont usually get headaches and i find my self staring of into space just thinking about the fact i might i have a tumor i cant seem to snap out of my thoughts. i recently just met with a therapist and they told me i most likely have anxiety and ptsd. i just been so scared crying thinking my death date is soon it sickens me i miss out on meals i cant sleep at night since these headaches started dont feel like myself. i feel so tired and agitated. i just want to be okay. i stop smoking aswell when these headaches started because of course i thought it was the weed. my palms sweat often as well as my feet. i just feel so overwhelmed. i dont feel like the same outgoing joseph i just was. just need to know im not the only one you know? any tips or help what should i do? do you think it’s anxiety?
Hi Joseph have you spoke with doctor but anxiety is a powerful sense that makes you focus on all the bad things could be with you coming off weed try some mindfullness on YouTube good luckx
Sounds just like anxiety based symptoms to me my friend. And absolutely yes anxiety can cause physical symptoms like you wouldnt believe.
I myself gave up weed over 10 years ago and spent about a year with stress headaches and god knows a long list of symptoms that scred the s**t outta me,But i have no idea if the 2 are linked, and i eventually came out the other side. And put it down to my body getting used to living without smoking weed daily.
All that said i am still very much an advocate for the benefits of weed, but i couldn't go back to it.
My advice would be to see a doc to get checked out, and once you realise you are physically healthy, you will hopefully feel better knowing that its something that can be dealt with, maybe with help, maybe not.
But there is many ways to deal with and treat anxiety, long and short term.
Hope this helped in some small way.
a month later i feel a lot better! still get these little headaches here and there and insomnia as well but everything else is gone!
