I have terrible anxiety.
Lately I’ve been obsessing over having a brain tumor or something being wrong with my brain because I’ve been getting bad headaches, weakness in my legs, bad leg cramps and tingling down to my feet and bad eye pressure and constant dizziness and lightheadedness when I stand.
What is wrong??
Please help
Hiya Hayley, I could have wrote this myself! Sounds exactly like me, I’m convinced I also have a brain tumour even tho I’ve had eye tests and reassurance from a doctor, deep down I think I know it can’t be but there’s always the ‘what if’ and more often than not the anxiety thoughts take over the logical thoughts and make us think all sorts, are you on any medication?xx

Have you talked to your GP, He will check you out and try and help with your Anxiety
You could try Mindfulness Relaxation Technique and breathing techniques to calm your fears.
When you make an appointment, make a list of your concerns so as to help with the flow of relevant information and not miss anything out
I’m on Lexapro and Buspar and it doesn’t help
Do you have weakness and dizziness too?
I have dizziness, weird vision (hard to explain) headaches, pains in my arms, feel extremely fatigued, tingling/numbness in my face, the list goes on
