New to board, have question regarding stress and CH

Hi, I am new to the board and I wanted to say that I love it. It seems like I have finally found a place where someone understands me! I am on my 4th episode of clusters in about 7 years. I seem to get them from severe stress that I don't have a lot of control over. Has anyone experienced this? I have not noticed any other triggers that I can pinpoint. Has anyone had CH as a result of stress? It is wierd that I can get through some extremely stressful situations just fine, and then others bring on the headaches. My family tells me that I need to relax and I have tried to tell them that it is not that easy. It is not that am treating these situations any differently than the ones that don't cause the headaches. Does anyone have any suggestions or am I totally missing something here.
