Evening

I have been experiencing head tingling an tightness for months due to anxiety and wondered how long people had this sensation? I always seem to get lightheaded with this and think something bad is going to happen which of course it doesn't. I just get so overwhelmed and it concerns me!

Any experiences out there?

yes yes yes !! I have had it for a month and two weeks!!

think its down to jaw clenching as my cheeks are achy too !!!

Def anxiety mate... just try to relax.. sometimes its tension where ur hunched up all the time .. or like me.. it can be jaw clenched without u realising..

just try and relax and keep your head up

Hope this helps...

yes!!!! i suffer from emetophobia and i experience tingling light headiness and headaches

it made my anxiety alot worse because i thought these symptoms were because i was sick

but in the end the way i overcame this was by eating and drinking plenty of water and in the end all will be fine and there is nothing to worry about

hope i could help

Hi

I suffer with this, the light headedness being my worse anx aymptom. when im quite anxious i get the tingling head to

Only way to get rid of it in my case is to carry on as normal and try and ignore the symptoms

Easier said i know
