A member asked:
I've been having fears of brain/head injury from daily life/activities (any contact to head/perceived one).it's been a burden, any advices?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See psychologist: You answers the question when you described this irrational fear as a burden. The basis of wanting to protect against head injury is laudable at face. Wearing a helmet in sports, bicycle, motorcycle etc is not only reasonable but recommended; however, you sound overwhelmed by fear. This should be addressed with a psychologist or medical social worker to discover why the obsession and fix it now
