Hi, ravens, and welcome to Psych Central!
 I haven't heard of this body reaction either. What kind of doc have you asked about it?

It sounds like a blood pressure issue to me. I'm pretty sure most SSRIs and antianxiety meds lower your blood pressure. When you get mad, your blood pressure is supposed to rise. The meds sort of prohibit your body from doing that and your body has to work extra hard to raise that blood pressure (Your heart has to pump harder) which might be the reason it feels like your pulse is in your forehead. just a thought. The only reason i say this is because i had this problem when I exercised. It's your heart trying to pump enough blood through your body.

I have no idea, but if stress is causing some type of physical reaction, getting a thorough physical, perhaps tested for migraines, could help you find answers? dunno. I agree, what type of doctor thinks you are nuts?

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
