Horrible feeling in my head.

Can depression and anxiety make your head feel weird inside? I feel dizzy, pressure, looks like things are moving when I am sitting still, it aches but not like a headache. I feel very off balance and my blood pressure is high. I have been to doctors and she has increased my blood pressure tablet from 4mg to 8mg I also take a beta blocker which is 3.75mg and I am taking 50 mg of an antidepressant that I have been on for23 years. I feel so ill and worried. I’ve had blood tests, and am waiting for results of an MRI scan which has been 4 weeks now.

Hi Emma, poor you this sounds horrible. I too find that I have strange sensations on my head, all apparently down to depression and anxiety.

Good for you for getting thoroughly checked out though.

I hope it goes soon for you. X

I call it “wobbly head.” Yes. Anxiety can cause all of that.
