Toothache when trying to sleep


baderaalfaydi

Recommended Posts

I successfully quit all antidepressants about two years ago. Recently, my teeth began to hurt, and I used to bear the pain until it came to depriving me of sleep, so I went to the doctor and he pulled out two molars, but the pain still prevented me from sleeping, and symptoms of tension began to appear. 

I don't know if toothache is the cause of stress or is stress the cause of pain. Every time I pull a tooth, the pain appears somewhere else

this is called referred pain - it doesn't seem related to withdrawal. You should see your dentist again. 

"Nothing so small as a moment is insurmountable, and moments are all that we have. You have survived every trial and tribulation that life has thrown at you up until this very instant. When future troubles come—and they will come—a version of you will be born into that moment that can conquer them, too." - Kevin Koenig
