Anxiety and head problems

[anxietyellie]

Does anyone else have head issues and have been told that it is anxiety?  I am about tired of this constant head pressure/pain that I keep getting.  Its very weird.  I will wake up in the morning and feel ok, then about 1/2 hour later this pressure/pain will start on the left side of my head near the top.  It will seem to intensify and then lessen itself throughout the day with no real rhyme or reason to when it is worse or better.  If I ignore it and go about my business it seems to get slightly better but if I acknowledge it.. it seems to get worse.  Is this all from anxiety?  I am so worried that it is something so serious.  I have seen 4 different doctors and had blood work and urinalysis done and always given anxiety as diagnosis.  I am currently taking lexapro for about 3 weeks now.. seems to help a little but annoying head pressure/pain will not seem to go away.  Does anyone have any advice?

Hello all,
I have read all these posts and feel releaved! I have suffered with anxiety and panic attacks for 11 years. I have been on meds 4 times now and this seems to be the worst ever! I have a new dictor who is grear and I have a therapist who is wonderful as well. However....it has been so bad I had to leave my job. I held our health insurance and now dont have any. So I can no longer go to my therapist anymore. I have all the same symptoms as everyone on here with the exception of the head pressures, until 4 days ago. I have been in meds now for almost 2 months and started feeling better a month ago. Started feeling like myself again. And 4 days ago for no reason...I started having some head pressure. I am a stay at home mom now and I am so scarred that I have a brain tumor and im going to die. After reading what ppl have been through I now feel so much better that it is just part of my anxiety and I am ok and dont have a brain tumor.  I am so happy that I found this forum!

I've really been freaking out because of all these sudden onset on symptoms, Ive had anxiety with some similar symptoms in the past but not as bad as what I have experienced in the past few months.

Are you feeling any better? Sometimes I get upset thinking I'm the only one in pain not enjoying life but there's so many of us suffering. You're not alone. I've had this for 11 months now. I'm getting better and you will too. It just takes tome

For those of you with unexplained symptoms of anxiety, heart palpitations, general head issues (pressure, depression, ear issues etc.) trouble sleeping, tired, please consider Adrenal Fatigue Syndrome.  You may be stressed out of your mind and it is true what they say, stress does kill.
