Does anyone else get stress headaches?

Posted , 2 users are following.

Hello, I have had anxiety for years. It was manageable for a while but now it has struck back with a vengeance. I was wondering if anyone had experienced these stress headaches with their anxiety? I have had them for the past few days and it kind of worries me because my anxiety makes me think the worst of it. Its not like it hurts, but its this pressure in my left temple. Should I go to the ER or does this kind of thing go away on its own?

thank you for any advice you may have. it helps to know i am not going through this alone.
