Evidently, the PTSD was only triggered by my boss's abusive behavior, he was not the core of it. It was due to childhood trauma. I of course, had no clue what was happening and got diagnosed soon after. The headaches aren't solely due to the PTSD, but they are definitely a defense mechanism. I'm currently taking Topamax (as a preventative), Effexor ( an anti-depressant, but is also supposed to help prevent headaches), Sumatriptan (when they start coming on), birth control ( to keep my hormone levels in check: to help with headaches), Vicodin (for my neck, as needed) and a very low dose of Xanxax (for my panic attacks). Xanax actually gave me a headache, so I never take it. How's Ativan? I might try that. I'm also in some serious Psychotherapy. It's pretty hard core, but worthwhile and I love my therapist. I just can't see him that often, right now, due to funds. But he's pretty amazing. Thank you all for responding. It really helps.
