Carotid Artery Dissection and depression

While at work in February 2019, i lifted a bag of items like i had done a million times. This time was different, i had an instant pain across my head and neck. This was on the Thursday, the pain never went away. So on the following Monday i went to my local hospital and was diagnosed with Spontaneous Intracranial Carotid Dissection. I have been off work since, the headaches were very strong and started to get me down. Along with the other symptoms i had, Horner syndrome, ( Droopy eyelid, Sore scalp, cannot taste sweet food, Feels like i have a lump in my throat, Extremely dry mouth, Hissing in my ear ). To say that i have changed mentally sounds to be correct. I have become very short tempered, and feel like i can't be bothered with anything. So my short answer to the question is YES. I do believe that this condition can without o doubt make a person depressed.
