Hi, I'm 17 years old and usually I don't worry much about my health but i do have some sort of mild health anxiety because there are times where I'll start having symptoms that really concern and worry me which causes me to obsess about it and constantly fear that it's something serious or life threatening. For example, I once had some irregular breast pain which caused me to start worrying I had breast cancer (I don't, got it checked out, was just hormones). Generally all my worries go straight to cancer, so I think my health anxiety heavily revolves around getting cancer even though no cancers run in my family. Sorry for the long read

Migraines run in my family, I have had a occasional migraine but my oldest brother got the worst of it. However, about 3 or 4 times this past year, I've gotten these migraine like headaches thst last 1-2 weeks. They all start around the same time of my cycle. These have concerned me because they're very abnormal for me, I have expressed my concerns to my mom but she's never concerned nor worried and brushes me off. This one has scared me the most because it's a bit different than my other 3-4. It started with a mild headache thst continued to get worse as the days went on which is typical but this time there was a lot of head pressure in the back of my head. It's been over a week and the head pressure is now all over and there's hardly any pain at all, but I have a pulsing sensation (that goes eith my heartbeat) all over my head that seems to grt worse when i lay down. This has never happened before and I'm honestly panicking 24/7 because of it thinking that it's some sort of brain tumor. I don't think have any other symptoms besides lots of tiredness and eye floaters recently popping up, my balance seems to be off too but honestly I'm worrying so much that it's hard for me to tell the difference between what is an actual symptom vs what my anxiety is making a symptom. I'm just really worried and I don't know what I'm Even expecting out of this, I guess hopefully some reassurance and just to talk about it to calm me down.
