You know I've had chronic migraines (definition of chronic migraines is 15+ days per month) for over 9 years. It took quite a few years before my hubby realized I wasn't just being lazy and sitting on my butt.

What Dave needs to understand is this is a medical condition, and is in no way shape or form something that you have caused. I understand you don't want to be alone, but sweetie, you are better being alone than being with a man who treats you as an inferior because of a medical condition that you have no control over.

Have you tried massages? I know they're expensive, but maybe a massage every other week would help balance the missing pay... I know several people who've had good luck with going to a chiropractor. None of these things help ME, but they work for some people.

You can always pm me here or on facebook. I've got my cell # on facebook too, if you ever need to just complain to someone who's not only been there, but lives there, with the migraines. ((hugs)) to you, but little ones, because I know!

I know this will sound trite. But you just have to learn to let it go. It is just a job. And yes I understand pressure from work, but I have learned that it is just a job. I have family, friends, children, fur and human and lots of fun to have. I refuse to let the job make me nuts.
Go in, do your best and leave it behind.. Much harder said then done, it takes practice but it comes easier with time.
Try to have someting to look forward to when work is done, EVERYNIGHT.
Makes a world of difference.
Best of luck.
Oh and if your boyfriend is being a %ick about your headache, time to get a new man who treats you better.
