Hey guys recently like the last 6 weeks ive had a feeling like someone is literally pushing in my temples and it feels like my head is going to blow up, sometimes its sooo strong that i feel like im going to be sick. Im so worried. on top of this ive had pins and needles, like STRONG pins and needles, not the sort you can imagine in my hands and feet , i also get muscle twitching etc all over my body. it honestly freaks me out. Ive had all these symptoms since my health anxiety came back 4 months ago but i dont believe this could all be due to anxiety... or can it? is anxiety really that strong that it affects your brain and nerves that much that you feel sick and weak and just not right? someone please reply. im drained from this and so worried!!!
As we speak right now my heads pounding and I suffer from anxiety its gotten so bad over the past two weeks its unbelievable! I've also got a bit of high blood pressure and that could be the cause you should maybe see your gp and check it out cos that's what could be causing it if youve got a high level of anxiety x
I can tell u that i feel exactly the same that got me going crazyyy i keep thinking that there is something deeply wrong with me add to all that dizziness, headaches, numbness and blurriness right now at this moment im feeling that pressure my jaw line too twitching in my ears and face muscles just think that we both can't have the exact same symptoms if we have some kind of illness right for example if u r afraid u have some kind of tumor me and u can't have the exact same thing do u get what i mean just convince your self by that. Don't give in to it be strong
Just to reassure you rhianna I've had the symptoms you describe many times and yes it's classic anxiety symptoms. When your anxious your muscles tense and blood vessels can go into spasm. I used to get terrible head pressure like my head was going to just explode, my therapist who I was seeing at the time gave a simple explanation that it was the scalp muscle tensing and tightening.
Don't be afraid just let the anxiety be there and get on with what your doing, difficult I know, however, whenyou stop focusing on the symptoms they'll go away.
Try taking some paracetamol and a muscle relaxant if you have some.
All the best x
oh, that is not good, I would go and see your doctor. Good luck.
