Sounds familiar, what you're going through. What Mark In Idaho suggested really works for me -- I discovered it by accident, myself.
Sitting forward with my back off the seat, and keeping my shoulders slumped forward helps support my neck and head. I also stretch my neck and shoulders regularly due to past rotator cuff injuries, and those stretches actually help my headaches.
Good luck with the cushion. Let us know how it works for you.

What happened: Sustained mild TBI #9(+) in 2004 when I fell down a flight of stairs and smacked the back of my head on the steps. Knocked out briefly, then bounced back and resumed everyday life, as usual. Then things fell apart -- lost my job, friends disappeared, spouse became terrified of me, money flew out the window, and I had no idea it was all happening, or why. Finally put things together in 2007, when I was researching brain injury for a family member. Have been actively working with a neuropsych and recovering since late 2007, with amazing results I never thought possible.
I blog about this at

Symptoms: fatigue, tinitis, sensitivity to light and noise and touch, insomnia, general pain, headache, attention issues, emotional lability, panic/anxiety, anger/rage spikes, confusion, difficulty hearing and understanding, slowed processing speed, limited short-term working memory, balance & vertigo issues, difficulty reading and learning new things, nystagmus and tremors when over-tired.
