Forehead tension causing deep mid forehead line. (Photo)

miaalanna
For 5 years or so now I have had chronic tension in my forehead. This has created a very distinct forehead line and as much as I try to relax my forehead muscle which feels like deeper muslces I cant. I have suffered with anxiety and an eating disorder so im not sure if it has to do with this. I did try botox with a neurologist but it didnt seem to do much except relax the surface muslces a bit. I am only 32 and it makes me so self conscious I hate it. Any advice much aprecated! Mia
