HI Momonica,
Thank you for reaching out to our community and being here with us! I am sorry to hear you are having a difficult time right now - I can totally relate!
You mentioned "tension headache" have you been diagnosed with this type of headache disorder? The reason I ask it it's important to get an accurate headache disorder diagnosis. Here's why - once we learn what type of headache disorder(s) we have, we can then learn about it and get the correct treatment for it. Take a look at this information on migraine diagnosis; https://migraine.com/q-and-a/how-is-migraine-diagnosed/ and

Many times when we wake with migraine pain, it may be an indication of a sleep disorder and not just sleep apnea. When you get a chance take a look at these articles for more information;

I don't have sleep apnea, but do have restless leg and periodic limb movement disorder. I'm getting better sleep and have reduced the days I wake up with a migraine.Here is information on tension type headache I hope helps; https://migraine.com/living-migraine/just-a-headache/.
Let me know what you think,
