Terrible anxiety panic attacks and headaches

[Christine05]

Terrible anxiety panic attacks and headaches I don’t understand why I have to suffer like this every morning I have panic attacks I’m on 5 mg of Lexapro I started two weeks ago but I think it’s making my headaches worse I don’t know what to do I’m so alone and deal with this for seven years and my family is sick of hearing me

Are you getting your Headaches during the day ? It sounds like Anxiety although if your head/neck are sore in the mornng , if this is the case it may be down to neck and head stress. You can possibly try a new Orthopedic Pillow.. They do work

Regards Lexpro, it takes about five weeks to help your condition, be patient

It is my neck and the back of my head behind my eyes I sleep on the couch because my husband snores and that doesn’t help but I noticed when I get really bad my anxiety and panic I have increased headaches Seeing a new psychiatrist today I’m hoping to get on Prozac because I think this Lexapro is causing me to grind my teeth and cause worsening headaches I was on Lexapro before for three months and it said the same thing but thank you for replying back to me

Sometimes it can be a good idea to try other things especially if it is all down to comfort and removing stress both mental and physical.

Try a warm shower directing the shower head to your neck and shoulders allowing heat to get to the bad areas, it will help you relax,

Yes you may need medications, although we all need to try something different. A Ortho Pillow may help and save on medications. I have reduced my medications by over 50%. B12 and D3 also help
