Can anxiety cause head pressure??

The headache you describe does sound like a sinus headache

Yeah could be anxiety. I've had for years, get horrid headaches at back and front of head, also pain in neck,backs,and jaw( muscle tension) as I hold myself so tense even sometimes without realising. Could be sinus or other. Ask doc again. Inruprofen doesn't help mine , doc gave me mild med to relax so I wouldn't get as tense and have as many but I won't take unless really bad . Drugs can help but too many for me just masks anxiety so I have to use small meds and push myself to relax, lots of tips here and lovely people who can reassure you??

It is called a tension headache. I used to have them every single day until I learned how to fix it. It's

Cause by tension in our neck and shoulders and the biggest relief for me is to always remember to keep your shoulders down. I never get them anymore

 anxiety can cause all of that and you may have some sinus issues mixed in there. Anxiety starts in the brain which means when it affects the nervous system it can affect any part of her body., Including the eyes. I have had blurry vision with anxiety . It comes and goes depending on if I have anxiety. But it has not caused any problems

Hi. I have had this for the last few days. Pain in the forehead and stiff neck it's a horrid sort of headache really runs you down 

Yeah of course anxiety can cause head pressure. I have GAD too and get really bad pressure around the back of my eyes and head when I feel anxious, and I would take paracetamol instead of ibuprofen because ibuprofen is more for swelling and paracetamol helps with headaches more x

Hello Amy,

Yes it can.  It was one of the early symptoms for me as i gradually developed GAD and depression.  No pain at all but very weird internal, what felt like the middle of my brain, head pressure.  It didn't last all day but brief random episodes.  Very infrequent for me but they did happen.

likewise, i have subtle blurry vision...and i only notice it looking at the time on the microwave, oven or alarm clock...anything illuminated like the power light indicator on a cell phone and so on, especially at night, will appear blurry as if i have double vision.  everything else though...no issues at all during the day or night time.  i've had all this for about a  year and 6 mos now.  i've also chosen not to medicate, yet.  i'm trying hard not to rely on meds to cure myself.  trying CBT and clean living...ie diet, sleep...daily thoughts.  anyway, good luck.

again, i had no pain with these random head pressure episodes.  they have gone away for a while now, but were certainly odd and weird.  so weird it would freak me out, but again no pain whatsoever.
