Ice pick headaches

do anybody get sudden stabbing pains in their head?? only lasts couple secs.. it hurts so bad im afraid of brain tumor because i have so many symptoms.. :(

yes I do all the time!! they last just a few seconds and are usually on the side of my head. ive been told they are not harmful!! do you get migraines?? i actually just experienced my first migraine today… I hope it is. its been 14 hours and nothing takes the headache away… im petrified that it’s a brain aneurysm!!! so I definitely feel your pain

  • I had this around december last year, it scared me so much and I really worried I had a tumor or something.
  • It felt like sharp zaps on the left side of my head, behind my ear. It would only last a sec or 2 but it was painful! It even woke me from my sleep too a couple times.
  • I had an MRI done, turned out there was nothing wrong at all, it was just my anxiety/stress. I started seeing a therapist which helped my anxiety, and since then I haven’t had any of these kinds of headaches again. I do have other symptoms tho like generalized itching, chest pains, lump in the throat - all those other fun anxiety symptoms lol. I dream of a day where I don’t have a single physical symptom from anxiety.
