“…Among mood disorders, dysthymia prevailed over major depression. These results are in agreement with, and further support, the data in the literature that indicate a higher prevalence of psychiatric comorbidity in patients with migraine without aura than in the general population [1,2,4].…”

“…The absence of a relation between the duration of the disease and the frequency of attacks on one hand and the prevalence of psychiatric comorbidity on the other suggest that the presence of psychiatric disorders is not a reaction to the "psychological load" of the painful migraine episodes, as had been indicated by several clinical studies [1,6].…”

“…Association with anxiety, obsessive‐compulsive disorder, and in particular mood disorders such as depression have been noted in adult migraineurs. Depression rates have been documented between 3.8% and 54.3% compared with general population lifetime rates, which range from 4.4% to 12.6% 6,18–21 . A correlation between migraine and adult patients with bipolar disorder has also been noted 22 .…”

Objective.-To determine whether behavioral and psychiatric disorders occur more frequently in school-age children with migraine headache. To also elucidate treatment response related to comorbid psychiatric or behavioral diagnosis.Background.-Recurrent migraine headaches are common in school-age children. Concurrent behavioral or psychiatric diagnoses could significantly impact headache frequency, severity, and response to treatment.Methods.-Healthy children from 6 to 17 years of age presenting to our headache clinic with migraine headache according to International Headache Society (IHS) criteria were identified. Parents/guardians were asked to complete the Child Symptom Inventory, 4th edition (CSI-4) after written informed consent. Children with positive rating scales underwent psychological interviews for confirmatory diagnosis. Results were compared to controls. Headache patients were assigned our usual treatment paradigm. Response regarding headache frequency was assessed at 3 months.Results.-A total of 47 patients were diagnosed with migraine headaches. The mean age was 10.55 years. Thirty controls were identified. After completing the CSI-4 and confirmatory psychological interview, 14 of 47 headache patients fulfilled Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM-4) criteria for a psychiatric or behavioral disorder. Oppositional defiant disorder (ODD) was significantly represented among children with migraine compared to the control group of children. Headache patients improved significantly post-treatment regarding their headache frequencies regardless of comorbid psychiatric or behavioral disorder. No significant differences were noted between boys and girls regarding diagnoses or treatment outcome.Conclusion.-ODD was a significant comorbidity in our headache population. Although families complained of significant behavioral symptomatology in their children, most of these symptoms did not qualify their children for a psychiatric diagnosis and may be related to the stressors of headache on social/school disruption.

“…Depending on the population examined, the studies can be divided into 3 groups. The first group looked at depression in clinical settings, with study sizes ranging from 40 to 500 subjects with migraine, and reported point prevalence rates of depression ranging from 11.9% to 57%, and lifetime rates between 3.8% and 54.3% 4 , 7 , 9–13 …”
