...See more Hiiii I had a post from two months ago about a cyst. Thankfully it’s gone now, but my anxiety symptoms have been so on and off it’s crazy. I’ve slowly started taking medicines for anxiety, but I still am having physical symptoms of anxiety that drive me crazy :( every time I have a random anxiety symptom I am convinced I have something wrong with me health wise which just feeds my anxiety even more 😭

...See more Hi all this is my first time posting here! Some context: I’ve been super stressed at my job and am an overachiever. I am not building skills at my current job and all the work I do is useless and never makes it to customer (I’m in software development sort of). It’s gotten so bad this past year that in therapy the main thing I cry about is my job. The job market sucks and I’ve applied to over 200 jobs. Any way back to the present. Around a week or a week and a half ago, I started feeling some tension in my jaw, neck and head. My head felt “weird” not like a headache headache, but the feeling of your hair when it’s oily and starts to hurt. I remember I started feeling this when I went to the office so that was also around last Tuesday maybe. Fast forward to now, I have upper left back and shoulder pain, no more tension in my neck, but some phlegm (from idk where), and daily headaches 🥺. I also had some weakness in my upper arms (mainly one arm but sometimes the other). I’m visiting family overseas and my dad doesn’t want me seeing a doctor here 😣 However, I did message my doctor back home what to do and she did say to get evaluated in my dad’s home country. I rarely ever get headaches and the last time I got headaches that lasted more than 3-4 days was when I was allergic to some vitamin 6 years ago before starting college 😭 I think I’m still going to have my aunt take me to the doctor here and just not tell my dad. I think worst case scenario I strained or sprained an upper back muscle/pinched a nerve. Best case is maybe I am grinding my teeth at night and need a mouth guard. What doesn’t help my anxiety though is my stupid social media algorithms keep promoting scary health stories to me or talks of cancer. 💀😭 any way I think I need to get this off my chest.
