I don't know what's wrong with me and why it's happening . For last 2 years everyday I have a head pressure headache and brain fog
This brain fog is hard to explain ..it feels like I'm not here ..it feels like I'm watching myself live life . I have a beautiful new wife and i have no reason to be sad bedsides maybe being homesick.
Everyday living like this isn't a life ...no point living if this is how it's gonna be. 2 years like this and it's unexplainable. I wish I had all both my legs and arms broken rather than this as I know what's wrong and itl be repaired . I don't even know what I do for this to happen .
I always have this brain fog and I'm always tired ...IV recently joined the gym but I'm overweight and not sure what to do at the gym and due to my weight I'm afraid to ask
Please help me ... surely I'm not the only one that feels likes this ...if this carries on il be jumping into the Thames
Hi,
Interesting to read through your message, as I experience very similar to what you are describing. I find the head pressure difficult to explain, not painful but like a tightness in the head which builds when in an enviroment where am not happy to an amount where it is near unbearable. This also seems to have an effect on my balance, the floor feels unsteady and I feel waves of occasional head swimming which is very uncomfortable.
If it is of any re-assurance I have been to see Doctors / Neurologist / had MRI scan and they all came back clear. I was prescribed with Amitriptyline for tension headaches / anxiety / depression which am still using which helps a little but can still feel the same problems (Doctors have recently advised to up my intake of meds), It's strange that when at home or around people / situations where am comfortable I have no problem with head pressure, however it certain situations (like being at work where I don't really like the place or some of the people) I can feel the head pressure building and my eyesight feeling strange (like in dreamland or soemthing?).
I also use the gym, I find that a good workout relives some of the tension and makes me feel more like a human being - at it's worst with my symptoms however I was having real trouble using the treadmill with placing my feet and balance.
Hope this helps, I am already looking forward to the weekend and getting away from my workplace / colleagues. The working week sometimes feels like climbing a mountain to me !
I started the gym and the treadmill feels heavy and i feel like I'm jumping on it ..hard to explain ..IV only just started going to the gym so I understand it will take time
I was prescribed amitriptyline but it made me solo tired so I stopped taking it ..tbh I was a bit afraid to take them . How did you find them ? Does it help with everything ? If so il go back on them.
My brain fog is worse when I'm not doing anything but I can't be occupied all the time ..sometimes I just want to relax but I can't because this b*****d anxiety doesn't let me . I honestly just want to permanently stop it ...not living is better than living like this .
Hi,
Im not sure if the meds are working or not or making any kind of difference. I still feel head pressure but maybe it wasn't it isn't as bad now as it was ?- I remember before taking them an almost constant need to burp in order to release some pressure - thankfully that seems to have subsisded.
I think what is really needed is a change of scenery, get away from some of the people at my workplace and the culture (which I don't like). I like some of the people but cannot stand others,including a gossip/motormouth / know-it-all / persistent pen clicker/management bs talker and sigher - drives me nuts. Unfortunately, despite being fairly well qualified I have little self-confidence am not a good talker and worry about being able to pay my mortgage.
Agree with the strange feeling on the treadmill,when my symptoms are bad it feels very odd and sometimes have to grab onto the sides from fear of falling over.
