Stabbing pains in left side of head HELP

[missinsane]

First time posting on here. have health anxiety with linked depression. Fairly recently, 6 months, been on fluoxetine and have recently started getting sharp intermittent stabbnig pains in my head, i know they are linked to anxiety because i get hot, start worrying and when i begin to settle down and control my breathing it stops.

does anyone else get something similar?

Hi Jess
I have had similar experiences with anxiety many times. It will pass. don't worry.

Thankyou so much! i am actually at work at the moment, and hate it when it happens here, because at home i feel safe, here its a little harder, but i have good colleagues that understand. this forum is a god -send! xx

i get the stabbing pains 2! i think brain anursumyme (that was spelt sooo wrong_) or brain tumour, but the tension in the muscles on ur scalp actually can cause this! bizzare cause most people dont realise theres muscles there!
