Last April I was diagnosed with anxiety/panic. It was horrible for two weeks before i would go to the dr. I was having rapid heartbeat, feeling spacey, afraid to go anywhere, fall asleep and wake up feeling on fire. I did finally go to the dr and am on zoloft and xanax. Have been doing about 85% better but this last week I have been feeling this weird pressure in th eback of my head. And it scares me so bad...Is this common with anxiety. I am so afraid to get back to where I was in April.

Our body can do amazing things during anxiety. I am sure it is anxiety related. If that doesn't help you, you can always get it checked out by the doc.

Also, the meds are a bandaid please make sure you are seeing a therapist to work through the issues. Or pick up Claire Weekes Hope and Help for your Nerves.

I don't know how common it is, but I have had it also. It caused me to feel anxious as well since it has the first time I had ever had a headache in the back of my head. I think mine was from tension or stress.

people that suffer from this disorder notice every little acke, pain, bump, bruse ect. Im sure it is tennsion caused by stress. If it does not go away, to ease your mind you can go to the doc. When it happens to me I try to get my mind off of it.

Anxiety can bring on so many different physical symptoms so I'm sure it's due to anxiety or the med. I personally never had pressure in the back of my head due to anxiety. But I did have all kinds of side affects due to my med. You should def talk to your dr about just to make sure it's not something else.
