I don't feel anything when I press on the bony part behind my ears.
Another thing I should mention is that I suffer from IBS which is a digestive issue, as well as general anxiety disorder. The anxiety and the migraines in a way control my life. I don't even have time to go see a doctor because school is so overwhelming.

A Physical Therapist or upper cervical chiro can often help. You would want somebody who knows how to do gentle therapy, gentle traction and mobilization of the cervical vertebra, to help the cervical vertebra to settle into proper place and strengthen. It also requires learning to sleep with good head and neck posture.
Have you tried any dietary changes ? There is a diet called the anti-inflammatory diet. Some have found it very helpful.
Google 'anti inflammatory diet migraines' You will find a lot of information and testimonials.
