Hi, im 17, i have chronic depression and anxiety.

Lately i have been feeling weird tingling off the sides of my head, and sometimes it'll be towards the top of my head or towards the back. Mostly happens in the left side of my head. This has been happening since the end of January2014. It has been constant but it'll rarely go away at time but it'll just come back. I went to the hospital and they said the i have TMJ but when i went to the dentist they said that I didn't have TMJ. I was hoping maybe you can help me?

Also i have another thing to ask, why does my left arm feel weird after i drink something that has caffeine in it?

Hello and welcome.

I am sorry that you are currently being bothered by these symptoms.

Anxiety can manifest itself in so many individual ways. However, these are fairly well known feelings...and you will certainly find some similarities here in this site with a comprehensive list of anxiety symptoms.

Anxiety Symptoms, Anxiety Attack Symptoms (Panic Attack Symptoms), Symptoms of Anxiety:

What if anthing have you been doing to treat your A/D?

If you have not explored therapy and/or self help as an option, I would strongly encourage you to do so, as both can be very effective.:)

Check out out Resources here (main page, 1st thread) for great ideas on how to get started.

Post with us anytime!

I have been taking medications for my anxiety for the past four years. I was first taking Kolatopin (cant spell) but then they switched me to BusPiron. I use to go to thearpy when I lived down in Florida but when I moved up to Michigan, the place I went to to get some help with my depression and anxiety they said i wasnt "Mentally Ill" enough to join. I do talk to the school social worker but I talk to her once every month because she's always busy. Self-help for myself i will check that out.

Thank you so much, and i love how I got a quick responce!

SG,

In the Resources there is a site called MoodGym...it is free on-line therapy! Many people have found this really helpful.:)

If you need me to, I will post the direct link...

This could be a great self-help step, since your therapy was cut short due to your move.

Keep posting with us...we are here to support.:)

Sami,

Another thought.....if you go the Resources Page, right on the very front page, at the top, and look in there, you will SEE direct links of all sorts, in many areas, that will take you to various self-help resource places.

Have you checked it out? You'll see several there that you can utilize and find what works best for you.

Sami,

Welcome to Healing Well! I am sorry to learn of your anxiety and depression since you were 13 years old.

I do hope your parents are supporting your efforts to heal as we all need support people in our lives.  Is it possible for you to see a therapist at your medical clinic ?

Do check out the free online CBT, I work with that frequently.

Kindly,

Kitt
