I did okay all weekend. Went to bed at 12am last night and woke up at 430 to get my husband up for work. Was feeling okay but then I noticed a small sharp pain in my head then next thing I know I start thinking oh no I probably do have a tumor :( Now I feel dizzy and sick and getting brain zaps. I was gonna try and sleep a couple more hours but I'm to scared now. Been googling for two hours

So sorry you are struglling rachnicole. I hope you get the rest you need and feel better afterwards.

One thing I would suggest is not to Google! I've learned this the hard way. I was constantly Googling my symptoms and have now convinced myself I have a heart problem. Anyway it's time we fired Dr. Google! It only makes things worse.

That is true I just get so scared. :( thank you though I hope you get better with your fear as well.. Out of the social anxiety and health anxiety through health is definitely the worst for me

Hello, I hope your feeling better. DON"T GOOGLE SYMPTOMS, I know it's hard I do it to : ) We scare ourselves the most, when you said you had a pain, then it scared you, then other symptoms arose, that is very familiar.

Thanks for the reassurance :) I'm not as panicky right now

r.n.

Getting up early always makes me feel wonky! I am sure that your symptom was just that...getting up early, and feeling a little disoriented...which turned to anxiety.

Glad to hear you are feeling better now!

Remember...instead of Google...go to our Resources and work through the health anxiety material instead. Much better use of time...

...and it will decrease your fears...not make them worse! :)

S.C.
