Your story sounds sooo much like mine! It's been 20 years for me...and I, too, have constant headache. If it weren't for crushing rebound insomnia I would have been free of meds a long time ago. I am currently on benzos plus gabapentin and have no idea of how to get off without experiencing weeks of excruciating insomnia. The sleep I get on pills is crap. I firmly believe my GAD and headache are exacerbated by the fact that I get little or no stage 4 sleep (the restorative kind that is the most important for good health). If only I had know this would be a life sentence! Send me a babblemail if you would like to discuss.
