Hi all I am suffering from nearly continuous severe head tension. It feels like I have straps round my head and it gets tighter and tighter but I dont have pain with it. I also get a lot of tension in my shoulders and neck. I wake in the morning and my jaw is clamped tight and even my eyes hurt until I blink a few times.
I was on diazepam for 36 years and am off them 5 years but still suffer from a lot of bad muscle tension and am sure this along with anxiety is causing it all. I am now getting depressed with it.
I had lots of blood tests done all of which are normal.
Does anyone else get this at all and how do you cope with it. I use 4head a lot but have tried not to so much in case it makes things worse. Does anyone else use it. Its amazing for a short while but then wears off.
i have had sinus problems too which I know dont help and I keep trying to steam.
Any encouragement and advice would be really welcome cos I am at the end of my tether with it all.
