Hi! I have been struggling with these tension (anxiety or overthinking) headaches also. Paracetamol, flunarizine, inderal none of them seem to work. Only benzos work but cannot take them as you know. The more I overthink the more I get headache. Meditation and distracting seems to work but all are temporary. Thoughts?

Ah. So sorry to hear. I haven't got any advice on medications I'm afraid. But I've found two things help - getting away from screens (and spending some time looking into the distance) and checking my glasses are the right prescription! I was worried that my anxiety headaches/migraines were tension related (which, in part, they were) but it turns out they were, in part, eyesight related!
