Pain in the neck and shoulder starts after waking up or when i remember it. can be motivated by psychological disorders?

By stress: Many people carry their stress as tension in their neck and shoulders (trapezius muscles). Acupuncture can be very beneficial for intially breaking that down. Deep breathing exercises, mindfullness and progressive muscle relaxation can help to keep it reduced.
