This once in a while head pressure is freaking me out.

Please please if you get this weird head fullness out of the blue please tell me how you cope? It happened again today twice, the first time I was sitting in my vehicle collecting rent from one of my loud tenants and then again when I got home and my gardner approached me with a question. It just feels like a sudden tightness or fullness.

Hi Deborah,

I get exactly what you're describing. I've noticed it while I'm sitting at work staring at the screen. For me it feels as if the blood is pushing up the back of my neck and then my whole head and face feel full with pressure. It subsides quickly but it freaks me out, nonetheless.

I'm sorry I don't have a special technique to get rid of the actual sensation. I quickly jump to the conclusion that something must be medically wrong with my body but what I'm learning now through mindfulness is to just notice the sensation, breath through it, and watch it pass.

Maybe it would help to write down in a journal what you were doing while it happened, how you felt about it and your reaction to it so that later, when you reread what you wrote, maybe you'll find a pattern and cope with it better the next time?

Did you feel stress at all when talking with the loud tenant or the gardener?

Jessy, I'm always under stress lol. But One thing I didn't mention is I'm totally addicted to my pc, all day long I'm staring at a computer screen, plus I have sinus problems. Maybe it's all related?

SC, can I have the link where others are having this problem?
