Ever since my depression started lifting, I've had constant headaches. In the past I've gotten a headache here or there in hypomania. Nothing like this. It's been weeks of low grade headaches. In the night they are enough to make me cry. Is this from anxiety or something else? My moods have been running all over the place. I can't put a finger on what I'm going through. It's frustrating.

When I have migraines it's always during periods of stability.
It may be lack of tension or due to anxiety. Muscles, nerves, blood vessels, the immune system and anything that affects those can cause it, I guess. Smoking or drinking coffee or more or less heat (or both) or anything increasing or acting as serotonin or epinephrine might help. I only have migraines, but it's still likely something like that might help. And part of it might be purely psychogenic, (or rather, purely) mental, to substitute pain with pain.

Or an atypical antipsychotic might make a difference or just an antihistamine. Histamine dilates the blood vessels. An atypical antipsychotic could help with anxiety as well (mine is off the charts without one).

I get migraines. Not too often these days. But last time I did vomit. Luckily when I do the headache goes away.

I think the headaches I have are more like tension headaches. Though I really don't know. I'm guessing it's anxiety. I have a really hard time with antipsychotics. I have yet to find one I can tolerate. I'll try to take some antihistamines before bed and see if it helps. Thanks!

I seem to get headaches during elevated stability. Irritability and aggrivation are markers of this mood I am in that sometimes leads to hypomaia. I have always attributed my headaches to such frustration.

I take extra strength excedrin. Wake up with headaches all of the time.
My mom took niacin and elivil.

I think this might be where I'm at. Reading my journal from the last week, I've slept on average 2-3 hours less a night, I've read four books(in a week), I've exercised 4 extra hours, I've been panicky and my sex drive is well, a little out of control with my porn consumption getting to an embarrassing level. I'm also hyper focused on changing my life in all of the ways but with little self control. And I've had a couple of drunken tantrums. |
