See your doctor.
Try Excedrin.
Ask your therapist for training in relaxation techniques.
Try cold pack on forehead.
Lie down in dark and minimize sound and other stimuli.
Regulate your sleep/wake cycle.
Massage the "anatomical snuffbox", the area of padding and webbing between your thumb and index finger.
Sniff peppermint oil or massage lavender oil on your forehead. Or massage with a blend of peppermint and lavender oil diluted to 2.5% in massage or vegetable oil.
See your doctor.
