Pressure in temples and scalp

For weeks now I had a dull pressure in my temples, along with tingling/tender scalp, which are often worse in the afternoon and sometimes evening. Mornings tend to better, but this sort of thing is exhausting my ability to put up with it. I am concerned that this could be more than anxiety, but I here that is something anxiety disorders can do too. I just want some folks to share their experiences who share the same symptoms as mine.

I get exactly the same!
The only thing I’ve found that helps is taking diasepam, which would suggest it is anxiety.
When the temple pressure gets quite high I can get a bit dizzy as well. Mine normally fades off by evening time though.

Hi,

I suffer from head pressure / dizziness and like yourself this tends to build gradually through the day to being near unbearable. If it is of any re-assurance have been to Dr’s / Neurologist / MRI scan - all came back clean - it’s a very typical symptom of anxiety .

Hello Sam,
its nice to see someone with the same problem. Do you deal with it a lot on a daily basis?

Thanks Crispy, sort of relieving but I wish they could do more for us.

it really is anxiety! i suffered from this when my anxiety was at its highest point.
it completley took over my life. but honestly once i finally excepted that it was anxiety it went away! you have to just calm down and try to convince yourself that its anxiety.
i also took long hot showers that helped as well as started using lavender
