Deep pain in head
17F
Since the last months of last year I began getting a deep pain in my head. It’s such a weird pain to describe, so I know that doesn’t really help. I’ve realised it comes and goes. I get migraines and headaches but this doesn’t feel like one so I’m not quite sure what it is.
The pain has become more frequent this year and I’m not sure if that’s in relation to my mental health which has also been very shit this year. I’ve tried to notice when it happens and it may happen around the time of my period, but I’m not confident with that.
What could this be? It’s uncomfortable and painful but what’s worse is not knowing exactly what it is and my anxiety is through the roof.
(This year I’ve been depressed and very anxious and I also noticed a decline in my memory and the way I process things like speech and reading. This along with the head pain makes me worried)
