I used to have headaches a lot and I was afraid of brain tumors or strokes. Had it ckd out and all was ok. Now when I get a headache it is usually related to stress and anxiety. I just ride them out now.
Try not to worry. I'm sure you are ok.

The thing is i don't feel stressed or anxiety....How long would you have headaches for?

I hate this.

Anxiety can appear as many things physical and mental. Some think they have lost there sanity. Others think the thoughts are the issue.

You could have headaches for the rest of your life if anxiety is the cause and you do not find a way to heal.

I think we get to a pint where we are tired and exhausted from our issues and we start to see physical issues caused by stress or anxiety or both.

Maybe developing a few coping skills to help you calm would make the headaches disappear. Meditation is known for calming the body and a vehicle to learn how to stay present.

Do you have a plan to heal your self?

Do you work on healing at least once a day minimal?

If not what would convince you that it is the path to improving and being happy again.

Just wondering

I used to get headaches too and i would convince myself i have a brain tumor and that would make me have more headaches beccause of the constant worrying then i would look up symptoms of brain tumors and then i would get those symptoms because i was thinking about them. anxiety can do a lot of things to you physically and mentally. the best thing to do is realize it is all in your head.

So again I am convinced that I have something seriously wrong with me because of these headaches. I can't fiqure out why I am waking up and getting them...And the first symptom of a brain tumor is headaches....Or may be getting ready to have a stroke......

I have been doing so well now i feel like i'm spiriraling out of control again...

So afraid...

I know how you feel I seriously convinced myself I had one. Once I was put on meds the fear/anxiety/symptoms went away. Are you on any?

Yes I take zoloft and also have xanax.

Don't believe everything u read online. I have a friend who had a brain tumor and never had headaches!! She was thirty when she got diagnosed. She knew nothng was wrong with her until she had a siezure. They removed it and it hasn't grown back it's been almost four years. And also my best friends sister inlaw had a tumor in her brain again no headaches, she stopped having a period and grew three inches in 3 months!! Never had headaches. I'm guilty of looking up stuff too but we have to except that the we won't always feel good we will have aches and pains and even headaches. It's just part of being human, it's hard I know I'm having a hard time excepting it to but I'm on my road to recovery, and I believe everyone here is too. Otherwise we wouldn't be looking for help. Good luck dear. And stay off webmd etc....... It's the devil to people like us!! ;)

But i dont know why else I would have a headache everyday for a week or more.

Drink some water, tell yourself water will make it better. It does.

You will be fine, just drink some water.

You will be well.

I found I got headaches only on the left side of my head when I was taking Xanex.

I just told myself it was Xanex withddrawl Or a little dehydration, these are things that can be fixed easily and so, sip some water lay down, absorb yourself in something you really enjoy - and once you forget about it, it will go away.

I wish i could stop thinking about it...now i have this weird feeling on one side and i'm convinced im getting ready to have a stroke or anerusym....

o honey i do this stuff too. its usually just a sharp pain that only lasts a few seconds. it has to be the anxiety. you may have tight muscles in your neck and back. get a massage, drink water and loosen your body when you feel like your tense. pay attention to how your sitting or how your holding your head, these things can all contribute. its hard to except that all of this is from stress and anxiety. but it is. and the more we stress about it the worse the symptoms get. im not sayin i dont freak out bc i do but i have to rationalize with myself. stress does alot of funny things to our bodies!!!!
