Hi there.
Thanks for writing in.
The two possibilities I can think of are Anxiety , Migraine. Migraine can cause headaches and sensitivity to light etc. However most of your symptoms fit in with anxiety.
Please sign up for yoga classes. Exercise 30-45 minutes a day for 5 days a week might also help. Eat well balanced meals and drink 8-10 glasses of water a day.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Dr. Divya Kuttikrishnan
