    Hi Castella

    I used to get this all the time and kept thinking I had left my sunglasses on my head! It's just another symptom of anxiety/panic popping it's head up. try not to worry too much and it will eventually go. I get tightness across my nose at the moment and it's really annoying isn't it!

    Take care

    Hi

    Yep, I get that too all the time. At the moment, it's all over my head. It's caused because your muscles tense up with all the stress. Often it originates from your neck or shoulders. Try having a hot bath to relax you or getting a massage

    THis is in the top 10 of common anxiety symptoms . Its known as the headband ache.

    Relaxation will get rid of this .
