I don't usually grind my teeth, but over the years, when I've gotten really pissed off, I hold my teeth in and hold my breath, that's probably the cause.

 

[Jobber Doink]

I have a question: When I get stressed out or depressed my jaw usually hurts. Is that a possible symptom of a potential stroke?

Your main concern is if you're getting numbers/paralyse in face/arm/leg, problems seeing out of one or both eyes, headaches, dizzyness and trouble understanding things being said

 

[Chris]

I would guess so yeah, if you get headaches towards the front of your head like around your temples that could also be related. All that shit seems to be connected

 

[Jobber Doink]

But grinding teeth is actually something that can happen with stress/anxiety

 

[Jobber Doink]

I wouldn't be concerned about a with that symptom about a stroke, but more about an anxiety attacks due to stress.

 

[Wolverine]

I haven't been suffering any numbness or paralysis, so I'm good on that.

 

[Wolverine]

I'm stressed out all the time.

 

[Chris]

I never really grinded my teeth either but I used to similarly keep my jaw really tight at times and that ended up causing soreness and headaches until I was able to stop myself from the habit

 

[Jobber Doink]

Sounds like youre more suffering from stress/anxiety then a stroke and you should be concerned more about an anxiety attack

 

[Chris]

Was really how I discovered I was even "stressed" bc I'm pretty good at lying to myself otherwise but if I'm actually getting stressed I notice now bc I won't have an appetite or something and I'll be like "huh guess it has been a stressful couple days maybe I need to relax some" but mentally I just focus on other things and get distracted and don't think about it

 

[Wolverine]

It's hard for me not to be stressed out on something, because many factors in my life have caused it.

 

[Jobber Doink]

If you're under a lot of stress though, heart issues can arise as well

 

[Jobber Doink]

and gastrointestinal issues as well

 

[Jobber Doink]

honestly if you're stressed out all the time you have a lot of health risks if it continues long term and you'll want to look at getting help
