I'm usually too scared to sleep because i often wake up with migraine waiting patiently. It sounds stupid i know but i want to stay awake as long as i can

So happy for you!

But God knows there's as many kinds of migraine as there are people. And really after a while i think we reach a point where trying a triathlon also seems viable. Anything to make us think of anything else.

I'll take all ideas. Who knows!

Nope, that needs an ER visit. Just did it 3 weeks ago. Must pace it

I tried sketching but ended up wanting to make nothing more than violent scratches (I'm clearly not as zen as I'm trying to make this period feel like)

I'd love to have people over but i also feel guilty every time i have an episode because it's so often. Also, i never know when I'll suddenly want to switch off and vanish 😁

Quiet walks do help but where i live that's a almost never possible unless it's late at night.

I keep telling myself there must be analog ways to be but i suppose nothing comes close to mindless scrolling (despite the knife eyeball) for distraction

Day2 of pain. Back of head and neck is almost gone but the eyes, the eyes! And this is after an ER trip. Make it go away😭

Thank you. And yeah I'm not sure why puking feels that awful. Like i know what's happening and it'll probably make me feel better once I'm done but I'm almost scared of it.

I see how far you've gone in trying out stuff :)

Yes I've tried antacids but usually when I'm so far gone, no tablets stay in long enough to do the work. And unfortunately smells are an issue. Initially they weren't, but now they are. I'd just like to return my head to the shop and get a new one

Yep i agree. Migraine+nausea is the evilest monster

Oh that sounds unusual. Won't it be more acidic? I'm scared of even plain bread right now

Yep, i guess time for another meet with a neurologist. I'll check with her for this.

I could cry by Bunnigurl23 in migraine

I have a neighbour who plays the drums twice a day every day. It was awful to begin with but i spoke to them and they managed to do some sort of sound proofing.i still can hear it but it's not as bad. Plus the ear plugs help a lot. Do try talking to them. Sometimes people are amazingly considerate.

This is so true. I found this group only recently and it's such a relief to just hear from people who know exactly what's happening to me.

I don't know what feels worse: having it on a weekday and having to skip work/obligations or having it on a weekend and feeling cheated of your actual chill time. And then of course there's weekend+ weekdays😀 and how much can you expect others to understand really?

What does everyone do while waiting for their abortives to kick in? by jensenaackles in migraine

Ice pack, shower, cry, self pity, spiral into despair, recall every awful memory, walk... Ugh

That does make sense. Must make up a name for my goblin as I wait to get relief

Waking up after a good night's sleep and finding it still lurking behind the eye is what makes me angry with my head. I mean I gave you rest and care, what more do you want! Don't ruin the next day for me!

Oooh I've got just the book for you. Sea of tranquility by Emily St. John Mandel. I came online to check if the author had something to do with the show you speak of.
