Sounds more like stress or tension-type related migraines with likely associated anxiety and possibly a touch of OCD. Many other things need to be considered and ruled out. Talk to your parents and have them take you to a Neurologist. Head injury without a history of it is highly unlikely.

Sensitivity to light is actually what we called photophobia. The moodiness and the headache in association with photophobia highly suggest migraine headaches
Try over the counter medication as early as you can
I think you would know if you have had a head injury that was severe enough to cause symptoms. Without remembering such an event, we can be certain your symptoms are not from a head injury.
