Abstract in brief

The study found that anxiety symptoms, particularly worrying, trouble relaxing, and feeling nervous or on edge, are strongly associated with an increased risk of migraine, more so than depression symptoms.
Specific anxiety-related issues like difficulty controlling worry and relaxation problems significantly contribute to migraine occurrence, while depression symptoms such as hopelessness and sadness were less predictive.
Overall, the research highlights that anxiety has a more prominent role than depression in migraine comorbidity, emphasizing the importance of targeting anxiety symptoms for better migraine management.]
