So can I.
panic52, you definately have a phobia of things to do with your head. You have a definate health anxiety. Take that as reassurance, because it means there is nothing wrong with you but you are blowing things out of proportion.
Focusing on the individual things you can feel in your head will not help you. Its time to accept you fears and start to work on reducing them. Is there something that triggered this fear? A past trauma? Maybe a therapist or counsellor can help you.
I know you banged your head last year, but it has not injured you in any way. You are still alive. If you are still concerned, see a doctor, and if they say you are fine then you are fine. Doctors do not take chances. They are 99.9% right.
Stress and anxiety cause headaches and if you focus on little niggles and pains in that way, you will notice them much more.

Try this: its a mantra. A saying you repeat over and over that makes you feel better. It pushes out the negetive thoughts. When you start to worry about your head, tell yourself: "my head is normal. I am fit and healthy. I can do anything" Or make something up like that because I just made that up on the spur of the moment so its crap. Repeat it over and over until you feel a bit better, then focus on doing something positive like doing some cleaning or going out a bit. Keep distracted and you won't notice things wrong with you.
Make that change panic52!
You can do it! Good luck!

There are pulses all over your body hunny, its normal. Try and stay away from the drink, or at least cut down. You say its becoming something to "rely" on, thats a worry. Trust me, Ive been there. Take your normal meds, be gentle on yourself, and learn relaxation/breathing techniques. It will help you to look after yourself. x

You are not being a pain! You need some help and we are here for you, but I think you need to get the root of your fear! Once you know what it is that worries you, you can work on helping yourself.
Glad you have a doctors appointment that should put your mind at ease. And as you say, yes your work will make you feel much better.
Sorry you feel so bad at the moment, I didn't want to make you feel worse. Why don't you want to try the medication? Is it giving you side effects? It would be better than alcohol.
You will feel better soon panic52, just have confidence xxxxx :hugs::hugs:
And you are NOT a pain :roflmao:
