I suffer from Anxiety and Depression and the biggest and most common symptom I experience is headaches , back of the head pain , weird tingly head feeling , head zaps , etc . All relating to my head , most of the headaches are minor but enough to feel something .

I guess once I feel a weird sensation my mind gets triggered then I start scanning and looking for problems , Im contently thinking about my anxiety and assuming the worse , thats why I prob have alot of head feelings .

My questions is :


Does anyone else here experience alot of head feelings with Anxiety / Depression ? Please tell me what you experience / how it feels like / how you deal with it / tell me anything about it . [b/]


I want to see if theres more people who feel / suffer from same problems as myself , it always helps knowing Im not alone . Please share you input , Thanks & God Bless : )

I have had those and they cause my anxiety too shoot up as well. I would lay down and close my eyes, sometimes nap if it was really bad. I asked my pdoc and he said it was miss fires in the brain, and that they happen to most all people on AD. Mine have not happen in some time, but when they do.... my gosh it is horrible. I hope that this helps some and that you feel better soon

Thanks for the responses , I'm sorry you have to go through these pains aswell , but its good to know that I am not alone with these feelings .

I'm pretty new to Anxiety / Depression and just learning to deal with it . I had alot of times where I could feel my head Pulsating , I felt it when touching my head I could feel it move like a beat and this really freaked me out . For weeks I was crying thinking I had something in my head that wasnt suppose to be there .

I guess all the worrying just made it worse .

Mam, this is one of the big and most common symptoms we have, in time you will get stronger and it will
get weaker, if you read some of the past posts you will see you are in good company, Peace

MLJ,

This issue is very common! I have had headaches that last for days/weeks.

It can lead us to catastrophic thinking...but stress realted headaches are just that...

I have two great links in mind that may help...let me know if you're interested, and I will post them for you.:)

I get it too. I have one right now. Right side of my head with pressure by my ear and eye. Not fun. It's giving me a lot of anxiety right now.

I remember I use to get headaches in the past but never really thought anything about it ....... Nowadays when I get a headache I get paranoid thinking its alot more then just a headache .


I'd be interested in those links Scaredy Cat , Im sure it will help myself and everyone else out , Thanks :)
