Hi Guy: I've been wondering a lot about my headaches lately. I have GAD and I've been thinking my recent headaches are due to meds SE's or too much calcium or a magnesium deficiency. Maybe it's just a symptom of my anxiety after all? I just don't know anymore.
I know what you mean though, I've had what I call "3 day headaches" that are so bad my head feels like it's breaking apart. Lack of sleep definitely makes it all much worse...stiff neck etc etc.
There is a correlation between depression,sleep deprivation, body aches and pains and fibromyalgia
too. Have you ever been checked out for fibromyalgia? If Ames Sans Vie is ever on the board, he knows loads about anxiety/depression and pain, he would be a great person to ask for advice. Try "paging" him. He's very knowledgeable. I can't remember the names of meds he's found helpful.
Good luck!
Jas
