for a few months now i've felt a pressure on my head. it always changes place (could be top of my head, back of my head, top of my neck etc). i went to the doctor about this and he said that most pressure on the head is caused by anxiety. around this time i had actually being feeling very anxious which led to panic attacks, which have recently stopped (3 weeks ago). these attacks were because of smoking cannabis. i also went to the doctor about this who said that after affects of cannabis like mine would only last for about 2 months. as she said, the effects went away.

however, although i am not "anxious" anymore i am not as laid back and relaxed as i used to be, and the pressure isn't going away which is also keeping me quite tense and worried. it seems to feel worse when i am more anxious. i am worried that i have a brain tumour. i'm only 19 and there is absolutely no family history of any forms of cancer. i also have very very mild tinnitus which i can only hear at night when it's really quiet. this seems to get worse when i am anxious too.

could i have a brain tumour or am i just anxious??

It could be that your vertebrae isn't doing well and your neck is so out that you're having cluster headaches and hearing issues. I suggest you go to the chiropractor. Find one that works for you, however. Sometimes one needs to go "shopping" for a chiropractor that works for their particular issues.

Easy! I'm 19 too and have had anxiety the last year, also gave up cannabis smoking the beginning of the year, which I had smoked for 7 years prior to giving up.

I now have anxiety issues every single day (for just over the last year), the root of it being because I think I have a brain tumor... I'm constantly looking for reasons as to why I do have and often think about death...

I've decided to see how well I do for a while without going through symptoms on the internet everyday and and trying to keep a positive attitude (I've had councilling and have practised a lot of relaxation techniques and positive thinking, go to the gym and am trying to lead a healthy lifestyle). If my symptoms (and depression) improves, I am going to contiune to read anxiety books etc until I feel happy in my life again..

If it doesn't improve (I know negetive thinking, it's hard) I'm going to go to the doctor and refuse to leave until I get a brain tumor test, as I feel a complete confirmation I don't have brain cancer is the only way I'm going to be able to live a stress/depression/anxiety free life again.

Hope I've sort of helped... Seeing as we're both the same age and have done the same in the past I think we may be in the same boat!

If you're a myspace user, add me, it will probably be good to speak to somebody sharing the same sort of feelings, I know it will be for me!
