[frosty2901]

would there be any reason for you to get lock jaw and if you did would you die from it remember the more you think about it the more your mind makes the symptoms feel worse. I hate anxiety and panic you could stub your toe and then think you will lose it because its throbbing so much it does love to have a good play with your body old mr anxiety.how long have you been having this symptom I often get a jaw ache but only after I looked up the symptoms of a heart attack so now my mind makes me think oh my jaw aches im having a heart attack when its only my mind and body playing tricks.

You are not going to die. You are clenching your jaw during panic/stress, that is all. x

I'm actually getting head aches with it :(

[Pepperpot]

Tension. That's all it is. Honestly you will be fine

Distract yourself x

Why in the name of all that is holy, would anyone think that lockjaw is going to kill them?
