I think there is a lot to the hereditary nature of it. My daughter gets headaches, too. And my mom got headaches. But I do think the daily nature of our headaches may have to do with things we're not facing or that we're forcing ourselves to avoid thinking about. Not in a conscious way, but in a press through the pain way. I mean, if you asked me I was stressed, I would always say no, and then my therapist would ask me to tell her what's on my mind, and I would list fifty million things. And she'd be all, "See your stress? You're just so used to it that you don't think of it as stress anymore." Also, when I went back she was like, "The headaches are your body trying to tell you something." Probably something emotional. Go figure.

Oh and keep writing down your dreams. I was reading through mine and the patterns are super enlightening.
