Continuous Morning Headaches - Sign of Depression? Posted: 12-05-06 09:14am
Can anyone help please. I have anxiety
disorder ( so I have been told) and my
doctor took me off anti depressants which
I felt were helping because he said I
wasnt depressed, but had panic attacks and
anxiety disorder instead. So he put me
onto beta blockers and anti anxiety meds (
valium). Ths was 5 months ago. I have
not got any better and most days my head
is filled with thoughts of panic, anxiety
and bad things. For the past 2 weeks I
have had constant headaches upon waking
that just get worse and worse throughout
the day, and I wondered if anybody else
gets these as a symptom of depression.
Your responses are greatly appreciated.
Many thanks

Morning Headache... Posted: 12-05-06 09:27am
Hello! I just happened to find your
post.
I, too have anxiety and headaches. I
never thought they
were related. I take zoloft for the
anxiety (100mg) and and topamax for the
headaches (50 mg in am and 50 in
pm)....Also are you dehydrated...And do
not drink red wine...
My headaches are almost gone. I hope
this helps.
