I'm hoping to get some feedback in this regard. What you are experiencing physically (ie. dizziness, floating, head pressure / pain, etc...).

 

Looking for those experiencing symptoms of the head / brain that are 10+ months out.

 

Thank you for your help,

Hey Colley

 

I'm at 8 months and head pressure is my worst physical symptom.

 

It get's worse with waves and does feel like a band tightening around my entire head. I do feel pressure in my frontal lobe and temples that worries me. I get head cancer paranoia.

 

I also get what feels like cramps for 15 secomds or so at different places in my skull.

 

I also have a lot of pressure behind my eyes and some days the whole thing feels like how a migrain is described. (never had them before)

 

I have followed you posts and I share the depression and anxiety symptoms big time. I did choose to go back to work while basically still in acute, but I am afraid of losing my job every day due to the anxiety and cog fog.

 

I thnk working actually makes it harder in some ways, but I bight the bullet and drag myself in every day.

 

I hope you are having more windows lately, I get them now and again so I have some hope

all the best everyone,

I'm 10 months and I'm worried my heads gona pop. It's like a sinus infection all over my face and head and sometimes my vision is crazA. It's like things I look at are moving and I know they are not. I was at the dr yesterday and there are line designs in her wall that looked to be moving. Sometimes the head feeling is like my brain is swimming in the Olympics like swirling around up there. My neck is unreal tho. Anxiety in the neck. It makes it to hard to think and sometimes speak.

16 months out and my head/scalp is still feel terrible.

Burning, squeezing, thingling, electric shock sensation all over but specially left side of my head and face. Feels million ants moving under my scalp and feel pressure in my head. Severe anxiety still.

Sometimes even is feels  like popcorn popping under my scalp. Feel pain in my head and scalp 24/7.

I never know human  can suffer this much and this long.

Love and healing to you all

Vica

i feel like ive been on a bad acid trip for nearly 2 years now. in not ONE second in that time, since late 2015 have i felt "normal" ive sincerely been dizzy, floaty, vertigo, strong agoraphobic, fatigued, etc etc etc for nearly two years now. im 4 months off, and i did have about 3 weeks in my 3rd month where it was all a teeny bit better and it was the most relieving thing of my life. but then wham, hurricane irma prep and stress and aftermath blasted me back and im in hell again. and beyond a 3 month leave of absence through my acute jumped off the drug phase, ive worked the entire time, every vacation day and sick day gone to this, and a hundred more days of pure torture, and unpaid days of going home.

 

this has sucked colossal balls. id give anything for a year to not have to work to get through this.
