Link seems to suffer when ever he puts on a mask
That only happens when he puts on a mask that changes his whole body. I think he's in pain because its changing his whole body, and the mask might be gluing itself to his face.
Getting back on topic, Majora is the way it is because it was crafted by a tribe for dark rituals. This is what the Happy Mask Salesman says on the subject:
"It is an accursed item from legend that is said to have been used by an ancient tribe in its hexing rituals. It is said that an evil and wicked power is bestowed upon the one who wears the mask.
According to legend...
The troubles caused by Majora's Mask were so great...
the ancient ones, fearing such catastrophe, sealed the mask in shadow forever, preventing its misuse. But now, that tribe from the legend has vanished, so no one really knows the true nature of the mask's power..."
However, note his use of "it is said", which means that it may not be true. I'm just going on what's in the game here.
I'd say that Majora acts the way it does because it was programmed to. It was designed to harness the evil inside everyone to bring it out, magnify it and unleash it. The more hatred inside a person, the more the mask is attracted to them. Hence the reason why it came into the Skull Kid's possession. He was angry because his friends had left him. And he was angry with himself, thinking that there was something wrong with him, when in reality, the Four Giants' (the SK's friends) departure had nothing to do with him. Well, they did get angry at him wreaking havoc over them leaving, but that was different.
