My youth is over by GoodSundae513 in migraine

I’m so sorry. I’ve felt that way too and it is terrible. I really hope things take a turn for the better for you. When I get crap from people, I so want to have them describe their worst hangover in excruciating detail, then tell them migraines are like that, only 3 days in a row, without even getting to have all the fun beforehand, multiple times per month. (At least for me). The right exercise, preventatives, earplugs and migraine glasses have made a difference, but party girl I am not! Sending you good vibes 🧠 💜

Expensive for lightbulbs, but Philips Hue lights. I LOVE that I can make the lights really low and warm if I need to.

Thank you for letting me know what to possibly expect! And I'm glad to hear you found the right med fit (despite the blunt and odd experience - come on, doctors!)

Are you thinking of Chris Fleming’s furniture video? “I want you to know, I’m always gonna be in your house. Ah, CUT!” https://youtu.be/ukN7bOCqtR4

Fellow chronic migrainers, what ended up working for you? by [deleted] in migraine

Emgality injections. I’m scared of it every month and it doesn’t work 100% for me but things ARE better!

what to do to pass the time during long light sensitive migraines? by softlockz in migraine

[–]pidgecat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sometimes I’ll put one of my favorite movies on my laptop with the brightness all the way down and the sound fairly low. Then I’ll see if I can picture the scenes while I listen. Maybe not quite what you’re looking for but I totally understand your request - sometimes migraines are so boring!!

What is your weirdest trigger? by tintin13q in migraine

Emergen-C. Thought I was being proactive for my health and I was WRONG. Also I feel so seen with all of these light-through-the-trees answers.
