Can headache be caused by depressed mood ? Posted: 10-28-07 15:11pm
I have had a headache for a couple of
weeks now and a doctor was no use. All he
wanted to do was give me a pain killer and
I want the cause gone, not just covered
up.
So I was wondering if it was possible to
be based on my mood. Some days the
headache is bad and then every once in a
while it goes away. I wouldnt say that i
am depressed, but i have some bad days -
and on those days the headache seems
worse. On awesome days I dont really have
the headache.
Or could it just be my mood effecting how
tense I am, possibly causing a headache.
I really have no idea and it would great
if someone could give me their opinion.
Thanks!

Stress and moodiness can cause tension
which can cause headaches; so your
attitude is definitely a cause of
headaches!
You may also need glasses, or to change
the prescription if you already have them.
