Migraines Are Just...

[Deep_Black_Conscious]

I've been dealing with migraines since I was 14. They occur when I engage in high level thinking and sometimes just occur randomly. They vary from annoying to absolutely debilitating to the point where I can't do shyt but lay there and

WTF is causing this? They went away for a couple of months and I felt free but now the migraines are slowly starting to creep back into my life.

Anyone else dealing with this shyt and/or can recommend some remedies?

Maybe you need (better) glasses? Do you spend a lot of your day staring at a computer screen? Maybe you have too much tension in your neck? Maybe you're just not hydrated enough. Could be a bunch of things.

I had a migraine headache in august '13.Worst pain ever, I thought I was gonna die.

Tried to watch tv felt like I was staring at the sun.Laid in a dark air conditioned room all day and took tylenol/advil migraine, my homegirl gets recurring migraines so she gave me 2 pills that she takes for migraines and I felt normal next day.I hope to never feel that pain again ,I want no parts of a migraine

I've had them since I was a kid. I get them about every 2-3 weeks. I take Goody's powder or like 6 ibuprofen (sometimes they help lessen the pain, sometimes they don't do shyt). No prescription has ever helped. I try to avoid strong perfumes, sunlight, watching TV in dark rooms.

At the worst I end up in bed, when the throbbing gets so intense I can't take it. Sometimes I'll get nausea too. Best wishes!

Lack of sleep, high stress, or when I have to actually use my brain...

Meds don't work for me. Have to sleep it off

I've had them since I was a teen, 25 now. Got me hating all light and sounds, wanna just curl up and die . Only thing that's ever helped is Topamax. It's prescribed and it's fukked with my short term memory a little bit, but I went from 2 migraines a week consistently to almost none. Bear in mind sleeping right/eating right and keeping your stress in check is all important too. All the best OP

I get them sometimes. It didn't start until I was an adult and I think it's linked to PMS. The first one I had I thought I was going to die or having an aneurysm. They are almost as bad as kidney stones

I only get them when I constantly self-regulate my body temperature or changes in the earth's ecosystem.

Full moons trigger it too. These are the worst.
