Every 6 months or so, I get this weird ache on the top of my head but toward the back portion - right where someone would wear a yarmulke. The pain is as if something is scraping the inside my head. Sometimes, it feels like I'm being struck but from the inside-out. Reminds me of when I would watch lightening in the sky. Weird huh? But here's the weirder part, every time this happens, it's just a matter of 3 to 4 days afterwards that I get a truly, low depressed mood and then it will pass after about a half day. Then, I feel well again. Also, before the pain, I'll feel as though my hair hurts in that area. It hurts to comb it in that spot as if the hairs are resisting being shifted. So, it goes:
Hair hurts, then head hurts, then a drop in mood, then back to normal. 40 years of this. Anything?

Have you changed the style of your hair, when this happens? Like, if you're not used to wearing a ponytail (male or female), and then pull all of your hair back, into an elastic band, of some kind, your hair might hurt----followed by a headache----this happens to me. Also, if you wear your hair parted a certain way, then part it a different way, this can happen (this has happened to me, as well).

I happen at a time of great stress?, I happen to me something like that and I did medical tests, it determined at the end it was tensional pain. due to stress.
