I have burning headaches from the side, back, top, back sides. I feel paranoid, I can’t relax, I have panic attacks, I eat alot because I feel worried, I can’t sleep sometimes. I’m afraid to get up from bed, and unable to reassure myself and calm myself. Please help. Also, I can’t think rationally in my head. I’m quick to anger at small things.

    Ok I know you are trying to help at all and chronic headaches can occasionally point to something bad about this.

    But there is a funny sort of humor that comes from telling an incredibly anxious person that they might have a brain tumor lol.

    I really mean no disrespect!

      You think it hasn’t crossed their mind already? The urgency is the point. They need to tell others they are in distress

      You can’t just be left in that state, it gets worse and worse. And if it’s a brain tumor, which could cause many of those symptoms, speed is survival.

      I get what you’re saying, but sometimes “it could be a brain tumor” is the brain worm that makes you push through when your family initially dismisses your symptoms
