    Yes, I know what you’re talking about. I’ve had every sensation you can think of. All of my testings were always normal. Mine started in my late 20s and I am now in my 60s so I have been through a lot. However, all of those scary sensations in the head and elsewhere. We’re all due to long-term stress and anxiety. The body can only take so much before it has a break down, and then you get things like weird head sensations, other people including myself for a long time, can get tingling, eye floaters, muscle, twitches, weakness, lightheadedness, head, pressure, disorientation and on and on. now if any of this was. serious I wouldn’t be here today.

    anxiety and stress can really cause some weird sensations. When you feel disoriented that is called

    de realization. That’s when the brain tries to protect you from all the anxiety and it’s sort of blocks things out. It’s not harmful and it eventually goes away. Yes, it can return. But the main thing is don’t get really freaked out by this because the more you do, the more these things will occur. I know it’s easier said than done. But the more you can relax your mind and allow. These things to occur in a calm way and a matter of fact way the more they will go away. This is kind of long, but I just wanted to share things with you. It may be a good idea to get some counseling to help you manage all of this. I will send you a private message. Take care.
