Anxiety, depression, and headache‐related disability in a large pediatric clinic–based sample
Patients with self-reported anxiety and/or depression reported higher headache-related disability. Having a behavioral health provider was associated with greater headache-related disability, indicating the complexity and high level of need for this population. Further research is needed to understand the directionality of these results; however, patients with headache as well as depression and or anxiety are a vulnerable group who may benefit from an integrated care model.
