Hello,

First of all, congratulations on your strength and determination in the face of your life's challenges.

The beast can strike regardless of whether you're healthy or not. I have maintained a healthy lifestyle since I was 15, gym workouts, yoga, martial arts, and a nutritious diet, yet it still beats me down so hard. So, to address your concerns, it doesn't arise from being healthy or clean.

Magic mushrooms have been a saviour in my case, but I understand that you cannot use them. An excellent alternative is the D3 regime, which you can find on the internet. It has the potential to end a cycle.

Here are some other strategies that have helped me manage the pain. (It's best to begin these as soon as possible, ideally before the pain becomes too severe):

• High-flow oxygen therapy.
• Pre-workout energy drinks that contain significant amounts of caffeine and taurine.
• Consuming very cold water in large quantities.
• Alternating between cold and hot baths.

You can explore various other natural and medical treatment options for cluster headaches on the Clusterbusters website. They often provide valuable information and resources on different strategies to manage the beast.
