Abstract

Depression is a common as well as serious illness. Many people with a depressive illness never seek treatment. But the vast majority, even those with the most severe depression, can get better with treatment. Tension headache is the most common type of headache and is experienced at some time by the majority of the population in some form. Emotional strain or anxiety is a common precipitant to tension type headache and there is sometimes an underlying depressive illness. A case of tension headache with depressive disorder treated with Gelsemium is reported here.
