Hey guys for the past week or so I have been getting this really weird feeling in my head. It sort of feels like when you get chills down your spine however this time its on the top of my head. I dont know if this is anxiety related or not but it is kind of scaring me. Im not on any medication at the minute. I was researching something called ASMR and it sounds similar but I am not sure if it is that or if it is something to do with my anxiety. Anyone else get this?

    hi Mia, I know exactly what you were talking about because I have had that on and off for many years. It’s due to my anxiety and it may be exactly what’s going on with you also. I actually get it in my head and then also feel it in my arms and legs. Mine sometimes feels tingly and other times more of a vibration feeling. I have had numerous MRIs of the head that didn’t really show anything. That’s why I know it’s from anxiety. The best thing you can do is try to manage the anxiety so that you don’t get this feeling as much or at all. It could help if you get some counseling for the anxiety. Of course everybody should get a complete physical check up at least once a year so you could mention that to your doctor at that time. Hope it goes away for you! Message me anytime. Take care
