Every few days I feel like I have a new "health concern"
« on: March 01, 2013, 02:07:13 PM »
I struggle every single day it seems to just have a normal day. A day where I feelgood and all is well in my world. But every few days I feel a pain or a twinge and my mind starts racing. The symptoms I have at this time is the side of my head hurts. I grit my teeth alot especially on that side and I'm hoping that is what it is from. But of course my mind has me convinced I have a brain tumor or something... Ahhhhh please help..

Hi,

This is what anxiety brain looks for . . . it wants you to immediately do worse case scenario and that gives it more power . . . I would suggest, either by yourself or through a community-based group or with a trained therapist, to look at developing management techniques to ensure that reality brain directs your thoughts. Yes, indeed, if you grit your teeth, the reality is that can cause muscle spasms on the side of your head. Anxiety brain though immediately redirects you to worse case scenario. Some guidance to management strategies will help you to focus on what is real. It may help to keep a log not only of when your symptoms occur and what your state of mind is but also of all the good stuff that happens when all is well in your world so you can see how the good stuff outweighs the anxiety stuff and how the good stuff is grounded in reality. Keep in touch with us and let us know how things are going for you . . .take care, kc
