@fredam7 thank you. I have had previous sinus infections and used strong sinus steroid sprays which seemed to help. I definitely suffer with stress I get stressed and anxious very easily.
Those sprays are helpful for some people. I had a bad one for 11 months and counting , my voice is hoarse because of it. Sprays didn't help so I took oral steroids , it gets complicated but it helped that issue some but I think it's still bad
But there is also occipital neuralgia which that's there , my eyes glitch and have the stiff neck and head pain is so bad .
Yeah, the stress can be very bad. I didn't know I had bad anxiety and stress because I was raised that way but it's to such an extreme level that xanax doesn't help and every sound is terrifying and I wasn't an easily scared person , a thrill seeker actually .
I don't know , it's really weird to me how this fear and weird symptoms coincide . I think chronic pain and illness takes a massive toll one's mental health and then the bad mental health further damages our physical heakrh
But that weird feeling of not being there I sometimes wonder if it's some weird coping mechanism so escape pain . I have severe pain issues that are intractable, no medication helps . So I wonder if my mind split in 2 and I'm crazy now becUse I'm stressed all the time and if an outside stressor comes up , which it doesn't frequently , I get exactly what you're describing ,
It got worse and worse and now I'm just like that all the time . My living situation is bad and someone bad is around and so I'm very uncomfortable. Can you get out of these episodes ?
I can't get out , im trapped in them . I think it's gi related as well. At this point , it's so confusing .
I can't believe some people had to go crazy to stay alive , I feel that happened to me after years of agony and I have no emotions but terror and anxiety and I was very very helpful and loved so many beings and things before.
I feel trauma plays a large role . Not saying people are not physically ill, but trauma plays a big role and keeps playing it . I sometimes wonder if I was well and opened a good place up and moved some very ill people there , away from maybe people perpetuating their illness, if they could get better
I've seen people who have mothers who live for the adult kid's illness , some weird stuff . Maybe the adult ill person can't get better because the source of the trauma is over them !
I feel trauma and the destruction of the immune and nervous system are linked rather closely and that's my personal opinion of course . How could I go from sky diving and loud concerts all my life to a craak of the floor sending terror through me? Trapped in trauma from physical pain and trauma , leads to more trauma and decomprnsation
Plus when you're very ill, a lot more trauma comes your way , the horror of dr's alone . Losing years of your life . Struggling with death with dignity options everyday . It's a lot
So I wonder if our head issues are neurological and psychological which is really one and the same . I guess I really have finally gone crazy
The vertigo does come and go , mine is just escalating . I sat in a chair and thought the legs broke and held the seat for some unknown reason, but it was just vertigo .
Has any dr taken a guess why you have the head symptoms and feel the way you Do mentally?
They say neurological and MCAS but I don't know , I think I've gone crazy
