Post-traumatic stress disorder and recurrent headaches.
Post-traumatic stress disorder, headaches. In May I had an accident when someone attacked me and beat me up slightly. Physically, nothing happened to me
But my headache is incredible. I had a CT scan of my head, I was given antidepressants because I was afraid to leave the house. The doctor says the headache will go away. That from stress? Is it possible that the headache is so bad from stress? I feel like one day I'm going to cut a hole in my head. Thank you in advance for your help

If we look at the matter in terms of the emotions you mentioned, headaches may be a consequence not so much of physical injuries as of severe stress that you experienced in connection with the assault. We are talking about the somatization of emotions.
The term denotes the tendency to experience and express psychological discomfort in the form of bodily symptoms. (Headaches as a consequence of severe stress). In other words, somatization is the unconscious and unintentional generation of physical symptoms that are a manifestation of psychological ailments such as anxiety.
In your case, severe headaches can also be a consequence of a head injury. Even if imaging tests such as a CT scan did not reveal anything, the impact probably stimulated the sensory receptors in the area of the injury. Structurally, there is also a possibility that you have overloaded the muscles in the cervical spine as a result of a blow to the head, which may result in tension headaches.
It will be a good idea to seek advice from a physiotherapist who deals with neurodiagnostics as well as a psychotherapist.
