Health anxiety: Good for you in getting your headaches evaluated, and learning that you're free of physically dangerous causes of headaches. People with tension headaches benefit from relaxation methods like meditation, yoga, breathing exercises, etc. If you're panicking with headaches, you may be interpreting their meaning in a scary way. Seeing a therapist to deal with your health anxiety can really help!
