Botox Increases Stress?

Recently we've been hearing all sorts of stories about Botox helping to relieve migraines and depression but how valid are these? The Botox and Depression study was a very informal survey of one doctor's personal Botox patients, a handful of whom said their depression lifted several weeks after their Botox injections. But depression is known to lift after several weeks for most people anyway. There was little scientific method to this study which has since received an amazing amount of media attention.
As a contrary to this, here's a comment from Rosanna Arquette (pictured above);
"An amazing doctor who's a friend of mine says that the muscles between the eyebrows, where they inject the Botox, are there to release tension and stress from the liver. When you freeze it, it has no place to go -- so you have all these really angry women walking around."
Has anyone come across any medical research that would support this incredible statement?
