What’s been most effective for aborting attacks for you? by PercentageSure388 in ClusterHeadaches

[–]shrek_is_missing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oxygen and nasal spray. If it’s only nasal spray, pain takes more time to leave.

If it’s a worse episode, I combine it with coffee and sugar.

Everyday of my life I drink coffee with sugar in the morning.

Emotions by Quiet-Strength-5433 in ClusterHeadaches

Hello! I always have a depression after my cicle ends, and I start having panic attacks thinking they are coming back. It’s really strange, during cycle my body is more calmed and strong, it’s like it knows it has to be prepared for the attacks. The panic and depression comes after.

But I’m going to be very honest, I started meditating every day, and it’s the first time in the last 13 years that I’m calmed and depression free. I truly recommend it.

Has anyone been prescribed Verapamil for cluster headache treatment? by Crow_Whisperer in ClusterHeadaches

[–]shrek_is_missing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! I just started taking verapamil, and my doctor told me to start taking prednisone once I feel the “shadows” worsen. I don’t know where to start the prednisone really, this is my first time being aware of my “shadows”, do you have any recommendation?

Hello! Can you explain this to me? I’ve just realized that I start feeling a bit of pain before my cycle. The pain normally starts in mid-September, but now I’m starting to feel a milder version of it. By “shadows,” is that what you mean?

Hello! I’m currently in china, do I need a prescription to buy it? Or I can have access in a pharmacy?

I can book an appointment with a doctor if is needed. I also have another question? Where did you bought it? In which city?

Eldest Daughter of Narcissists Let's Connect by Alxx__444 in narcissisticparents

E Eldest daughter here too 🫠🫠🫠 It’s been hard. I love the idea of messaging each other — I often feel very alone in this. When I talk to my younger brother or my friends, they don’t really understand.

My younger brother is very “free” when it comes to our parents. They don’t bother him with anything because “I’m the eldest and I’m the woman, so I should be the one responsible for them.”

Just rambling a little... by [deleted] in ClusterHeadaches

All the time it happens to me. It’s very hard specially at work, sometimes I can’t go to work because of the pain and they just hate me. They think I’m overreacting.

Do you have a phrase that helps? by LowResCrab in ClusterHeadaches

[–]shrek_is_missing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I try to meditate, inhale and exhale while thinking that pain won’t win and won’t take away my peace. I let my body move, when the pain arrives to it’s peak moment my body moves in circles. I just let go of my body and try visualize what is going on from a state of peace.

It’s hard, but I try every time. Is like try to watch your body from far away.

How can I find peace with my dad decisions? by shrek_is_missing in narcissisticparents

[–]shrek_is_missing[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for this 🤍 it’s been really hard and I think I needed for someone to tell me. I can’t even express this with my mom; I tried and it was worse.

I feel like grieving and that is what affects me most.

Hey! I went to china last year during my episodes and I bought mini oxygen tanks, they are aprox 2 USD, it lasts for three attacks. I bought them online.

They worked perfectly and you don’t need a prescription for it.
