I've been thinking lately, though I've had DP and Dr all my life since I was small.

I think that maybe something else is going on.

I want to see a doctor I want to get a scan of my brain, I'm scared that it may be cancer or some kind of tumor I've been getting headaches lately and have been getting pressure in my head

(I know this isn't a doctor website.)

I've convinced myself that I'm dying next week of a tumor and I'm frightened.

My head feels like its burning right now like it's on fire. I'm not sure if it's because of my allergies or what but I'm scared.

I tired to get a scan when I was younger but I had a panic attack in the machine. My mother told me that "Nothing is wrong with you, I saw the scans and the docotor said you're fine."

I'm pretty sure a doctor can't tell if I'm fine since I was only in there for like 10 mins before panic

She never believes me (my mother.) When I tell her something is wrong she gets mad at me. and rolls her eyes.

It's like I'm 5 years old and I can't get anyone to take me seriously..

I imagine myself dying next week and her finding my body.

I imagine myself lying on the table they put dead people on and them cutting me open and finding tumors all over me.

Idk if there's an after life but I sure as heck don't want to find out soon (that's even scarier than living.)

The next few post I make this week will be my last as I feel as though I'm dying next week.

Maybe my mother will read this or maybe I will somehow live through next week who knows...but I'm dying soon I just know it.

go get checked to have a peace of mind. But i had that same symptoms of my head burning and headaches as well. It was because of intense stress and worry. Are u currently stressed out because u have DP and DR for so long? That can be the problem. It will go away in time if u distract yourself and not worry. You will notice in time it will go away. IT TOOK 2 MONTHS for my burning sensation to disappear.. I had a MRI and all was normal. Go get checked just to make sure.

BlueBear81... maybe you can find some articles about dp that you can relate to and show them to your doctor and mother. In that way they can see what you're suffering from is real and at the same time they might learn something about the illness.

I had neuropsych testing, and eeg's done, when I had severe dp/dr in 1982, and it came out positive for a right hemisphere brain problem.

I went on anti convulsants, and the dp/dr is much better. It has gone away for periods of 10 years, but then comes back, but not like it was before the anti convulsants.

Unfortunately, now is one of the times that it has come back.

Have the tests done.
