A member asked:
Can severe stress/anxiety cause tension headache at back of head which is very mild and is intermittent?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, headaches associated with emotional stress, such as tension, anxiety, fear, nervousness, are not at all unusual. Your pattern could benefit from counseling geared to improve your coping skills which might indeed blunt or curtail your headaches. Have seen great success with cognitive-behavioral approaches, and/or biofeedback therapies.
