  • Title: Migraine: association with personality characteristics and psychopathology.
    Author: Silberstein SD, Lipton RB, Breslau N.
    Journal: Cephalalgia; 1995 Oct; 15(5):358-69; discussion 336. PubMed ID: 8536294.
    Abstract:
    The relationship between migraine and psychopathology has been discussed far more often than it has been systematically studied. Twentieth-century investigators have frequently described the obsessional rigid, angry personality postulated to characterize migraine sufferers. More recent population-based studies have demonstrated associations between migraine and depression and migraine and panic disorder. This article discusses the relationship of migraine and personality and migraine and psychopathology.
