I was detained under the mental health act for basically being autistic but the mental health team didn't get that so decided to detain me a few years ago.
Now my anxiety is crazy!!!
Constant headaches, tension I think, throbbing all around my head especially the forehead and back of my head. Hurts if I touch it. If I sit and rest it feels better. If I go out, it is dreadful and then accompanied by unsteadiness which feels like I'm actually drunk. Also get tingling and buzzes through my head and face, randomly dancing about me.
What gets me is how it's anxiety????
How can anxiety make all of this happen?!?
Weirdly I don't feel especially anxious but I think the sectioning affected me so badly it's just got me on a sub conscious level now and this is my life/future.
Sometimes I consider suicide but then I tell myself off for that. I just don't know if I can spend the rest of my life like this.
I'm thinking about making a Dr's appointment and giving meds a try but I also worry in case they diagnose me with a brain tumour as I'm aware though it is probably anxiety kicking me about it could be something more sinister. A Dr did check my face and head for obvious signs of brain issues but my reflections and movements were fine.
