I've been getting migraines for about 7 years and It really does change everything. It changes your career goals, family goals, relationships, everything. I'm here with you too.
You're right about that! I've had to cut down on my hours at work and have multiple meetings with my bosses... and it just sucks. It's so hard to say the word "can't" but.... sometimes life is just out of our control.
you get em everyday too? Fuck its such a train wreck
@@LighthouseHorror me too its really hard and also hard to explain to others
I even destroyed my career when head ache it like tragic and changing decision
@@daniels3401 no not every day, just when my womens hormones decide I have them. Working on it with my doctor. Probably 3-14 days of migraine symptoms per month.
It's really hard to live a life with migraine, worst part is that you cannot even cry. Crying triggers my migraine more.
Your video got me bawling in the middle of a migraine...
What people don't seem to understand is that it's a real illness, it's a disease that takes over our lives as migraineurs...it cripples us. I am fighting as hard as I can but the idea of living in constant pain sometimes just gets so unbearable.
Me too. I've dealt with this for 6 years now and no one understands. All I hear is "it's just headaches. Everyone has headaches!" They don't care or understand the pain we go through
What would you do that time?can you suggest any tablets ? My sister is in pain.🙏
Exedrin
@@real_timeless my migraine is in my upper back shoulders armoits everyday it's moved around my body over decades will this help this
Headaches are the worst! 24/7 especially. Sometimes I'm in too much pain to focus on my schoolwork so I have to sleep and class and learn at home
I got my first migraine at the age of six. People truly don’t get it. It’s an invisible torment.
True dear I am also with u. Still hurting
@@rosinixavier192it's not invisible disease its visible disease I have a video what happen during migraine attack
@@rosinixavier192It's a visible disorder I m also migraine patient I have a video what happened during migraine attack
My life came to a screeching halt because of migraines. I lost my dream job, my career as a nurse. My life as I knew it changed completely. I was in no way prepared for this. I had no clue that migraines were so horrific and debilitating. Losing your life, as you know it, and having to learn to adapt to your new normal is so very hard. Nobody gets it unless they have been there. I've lost friends, independence, my career, a big part of me. Life threw me a big curveball and I now live for the moment.
Such an amazing video. You did a wonderful job. I am so sorry that you've had to endure so much pain and adversity. I empathize with you and I love you so much! I love you more than butta and fire trucks!
Amber Carter you aren't alone in the darkness with you I've lost everything too I have 2 children and everyday is a struggle just for me to get out of bed I rarely ever have help I've dragged myself on the floor just to feed my children I've cried so loud in my pillow cause I didn't want them to hear me trust me you aren't alone.
So sorry this happened to you both!! I suffer like once a month but I literally can hardly leave the house when they come on I couldn't imagine suffering with them every day my heart hurts for you thinking about that pain daily it must be awful and enough to make a person want to give up on life.
It is only a migraine... that's what the nurses told me in the hospital.
Just a migraine...... just a headache..
.
I had my first migraine at age 14, I’m now 49. I hesitate so much when making plans, because I end up having to cancel them so often. Mine are almost exclusively on the left side, and you all probably know that extreme pain can cause vomiting, which I get with almost every migraine. I can lose 4-6 lbs per headache from vomiting and dehydration. I take imitrex and compazine, but if I catch the pain early enough, excedrin migraine meds can stop it, maybe 30% of the time. I also get “thunderclap migraines”; few weeks ago I was bringing laundry upstairs, and by the time I got upstairs, I fell to my knees in agony, I went from feeling totally fine to incredibly intense pain in 10 seconds. When people ask me how painful they are, I liken them to ice cream headaches, when you eat it too fast. I have a barf bucket in my car, just in case, and one by my bed. I can’t take any beta blockers for prevention because my systolic blood pressure is usually in the 90s, diastolic in the 60’s. I also tried topamax/topiramate, but had to stop that because that med killed my appetite almost completely, I can’t afford that, I’m 5’6”, 115-120 lbs, but got down to almost 100 lbs on that med. Years ago, 1992, a doctor put me on metoprolol 50 MB’s 2/day, my bp got so low I went into shock and spent 4 days in the hospital. One day, I did the math on how many migraines I get a month, then multiplied by 12 (a year). I was completely stunned when I realized I’ve spent about 6 full years, YEARS!, suffering. Hugs to my fellow migraineurs , I absolutely know your struggles.
Yes I have every day
I've had headaches since I was 9, I'm 14 now and I cant take any meds as I get such bad reactions to all that I take. It's difficult for people to understand what we migrane sufferers are actually dealing with
Topimax is such a useless medication. I would sleep like 14 hours a day because of this medication. Didn’t fix my symptoms one bit
😢god bless u currently in the hospital pregnant with migraines can only take Tylenol
I’ve had migraines for about 35 years now. They’ve progressively gotten worse and the doctors “think” they are worse because of my Lupus. I’ve tried everything- even gotten an occipital nerve stimulator, to no avail. Migraines and all of the oh so lovely symptoms like nausea, vomiting, photophobia that they bring with them just run my life! I’d love to join a support group like Jessica mentioned in the video, but I can’t look at a phone or computer screen for more than a few minutes. I wish everyone here who suffers from these monsters the best of luck at finding a treatment that works!
Did you try "Ajovy"? Botox? Detox?
So sorry you go through this. Me too. Worst of all is that the migraines require that the rest of our lives have to revolve around headaches.And the few days after a headache that sick-head feeling lingers on. Hate it! But I've learned to live with it.
So sorry I pray God to give you peace of mind,I have this frequent headaches,they irritate so much and each time I have them it triggers my panic attacks
What an honest and real testimony of living with Migraine! Thank you! I lost a job because of Migraine and I quit my last day job because of Migraine. I have lived in poverty without much understanding or support because of Migraine! I've missed family gatherings, been in bed on Christmas day all day, throwing up and really sick because if migraine. I would like to extend hope and love to all my fellow Migraine warriors out there! Don't give up! I know this is a hellish nightmare sometimes to live like this, but please don't end your life 🧬 on the other side of pain, there is a story, there is life...I have lived through intense pain most of my life and misunderstanding. I run a graphic design company from home. Lately, I have a daily fight against self pity. Let's drink this cup, through sufferings, unto Glory! The joy of knowing you are not alone! The biggest problem with migraine for me is the cortical depression, blinding auras and the fatigue, it takes about 5 days to get over mine.🌄
Please get you heart arteries checked for blockages. This cured me after 20 years.
@@lifeisshort3606shows up.on echo?
I've been having migraines almost every day for the past year. It's been hard as hell, and there's a lot of guilt involved in the cycle. "What if I didn't eat this?" "What if I didn't do that?" I've come to understand recently that I need to be a bit kinder to myself. Migraines are genetic, and while there are triggers and we need to strive to make progress, we need to be kind to ourselves too and understand it's mostly not our fault.
I totally understand. I had been really hard on myself about my migraines, assuming it was because I'd been looking at screens top much or staying up too late. It turned out it was due to me eating dairy. When I cut it out the weekly migraines stopped. I've not got a migraine after 3 free weeks without one, I think it's probably a different food trigger so I'm going to do another food diary to see if I can identify it. It's v hard not to blame ourselves but it's an inherited, genetic condition and we need to be kind to ourselves as we manage it.
Sometimes the migraines are so severe It feels like I'm going to have a stroke on the left side of my body. I struggled with migraines since 15 years old im 24 now sometimes it's hard to even play with my daughter or focus on my assignments at work . Sometimes I really just want to off myself
Same. I’m getting so sick of it. Having to explain to others is also part of the exhaustion. Having to get my son and go to work is so tiring and debilitating. I always ask why me and the pain is just unbearable. I’m laying in bed still on day 4 of one. I’m so done with this.
I see & hear you. I’ve had migraines since 1994 & had to leave my job & have missed out on so much of life. Thank god I have a great & supportive husband that is always there to help me…..even though you still feel alone. I do get the Botox shots that have helped but not as much as I hoped. It used to anger me to see all the new meds coming out & none of them have helped but if they help some people…..I’m glad for them. I have 4 sisters & none of them have migraines. It wasn’t til years later, after speaking with one of my aunts that some of my cousins & as far back as my grandmother had migraines. It did make me feel a little less lost. I have developed anxiety & & times depression but I take it day by day. Wishing I would wake up one morning & be that person b4 my migraines but also being catholic, I do realize that things could be much worse. I take it day by day & am thankful for my support system. ❤️
Thank you for posting this video. I really appreciate that. I got my first migrain when I was 12. I life has been no longer the same. But no matter how worse it might get, I wont give up.
IM 16 I get migrains I first had mine when I was 4 years old
Phát Phạm Hồng same, i started getting migraines at 12.. until 15 my parents told me “you are too young for migraines..”. Then auras started... but i found out it my migraines were because of an hormonal issue.. i’ve lost friends who dont understand what this is like. But I feel better knowing that we arennot alone
I got my first migraine at 12 years old and now im 15 and have chronic migraines and most people stil think its "Just a headache"🥴
They’re terrible, sometimes I hope I throw up when I’m extremely Nauseous during one because when I do it’s the only time that I get some sort of relief from the headache. And every time I think about the blurred vision and apparitions I see before I get one I get goosebumps.
I get it. I have been dealing with migraines since the age of eleven.
It started at 6 or 7 for me
Mandolinworks for me it was about 4 and a half it hurts so much i get them daily and im picked on for always being moody little do they know what im going through or that i cant controll it😓
I’m sorry hun
Ellianna Goonewardene that is so awful! I am so sorry you are going through this. I myself have migraines but never get them more than twice a month. I wish they could just find a cure as I’m sure they could if they really wanted to. Anyway keep on being strong and tell those people who make fun of you to go and fuck themselves
It Started when I was 5 and now I'm 13
Balling my eyes out at this because I feel for the people suffering and lost to chronic migraines. I'm trying so hard to fight but when you're going on your 3 week of constant pain unable to leave your bed or stand any light is horrendous but to not know how long this one is going to last for when my last one lasted 6/7 months with 2/3 months recovery before going back to work is UNBEARABLE! I really do feel for anyone who suffers from any chronic illness!❤
I’m with you, they have ruined my life and seriously effected my family, they make no sense to me why I have to endure these experiences, the fear of pain is real
So true, once I get the aura, I freak out and start sweating so badly.
I've had headaches all my life, with them progressively getting worse and becoming migraines starting in 3rd grade of elementary school. In high school I considered suicide because of them, I got some free counseling through the school and moved on with my life. In high school I was going home early once or twice a week because of how bad things were. I never knew there were others who struggled with suicide because of migraines too. I never knew there were migraine awareness groups out there either.
A lot of people don't get migraines until they are adults and they talk about all they lost, but I never had what they lost to begin with so I can't relate to having once been able to do what they lost, I can only relate to the envy we all feel towards those who have never had migraines. A day without a migraine or headache is a day I am finally a "normal" person, I celebrate those rare days.
Absolutely, I envy those that have no idea what a migraine is. Every night I go to sleep I’m praying that I don’t wake up with a migraine. Every single one I get I’m throwing up and dizzy. I can’t take them anymore. They just did a C.T scan and it came back normal but they want me to do a sleep study test next. I don’t know. Maybe they will find something. Be well
i been suffering from migraine since age 19 im 51 years old been in hospital many times because of migraines, been on all types of medications the pain has always been unbearable many times in total agony and vomiting some times i get depressed wonder how i go on each day i like many have suffered to others like myself i totally understand what your going through just finished getting over a 3 day long migraine holds back the tears as i type this others don't understand. chocolate gives me them as well as perfumes or any strong smells if i get to hot in summer time triggers them also stress,
I syffer from Migraines, but I am so thankful and happy that I haven't had one in about 2-3 months, and I hope they never come back. Good luck to all of you other migraine sufferers, we can do it.
How did you cure migraine ?
By just looking just at her eyes I can even see which side of her head hurts. I know what it's, mine is hurting right now.
I have migraines each day it is so painful and i feel like each day my head is being hammered crushed and sufocating and i feel so bad because i cant controll it and im young so i cant have loads of meds i feel scared that everything i have worked on since the day i was being is worth nothing but im trying my best so i glad i found someone who knows what its like and who understand my pain thank you
I have em too every day
I had a major migraine last night, probably triggered by storm Dennis that absolutely destroyed parts of South Wales. I understand how immobilising migraines are. When I have them, I can’t do anything other than lay in a dark room, try to sip water and force myself to sleep. I often vomit quite violently during severe migraine attacks too. It’s torture, the worst pain I experience, it’s truly miserable and even after the migraine hits the aftermath is catastrophic to deal with. It feels like you’ve been smacked in the head by a baseball bat. I really feel for the lovely sweet lady in this video. Migraines really do ruin lives and I think people don’t realise the full impact on them. If someone said to be something like “give up (something you love) and you’ll never ever have migraines again”, without a second thought I’d take that deal.
Thanks Jessica for describing this so well. I have been suffering from migraines since I was 14. I had four good years but 2020 the migraines came back with a vengeance. I have between 8 and 15 attacks a month now and am trying to hold down my dream job and deal with sick parents at the same time. Somehow.
The meds aren't really working. I am hoping for antibody therapy.
I am trying to take it one day at a time. I have already lost support from people who I thought were my friends. And it hasn't even been a year! In a way that hurt worse than the migraines.
This video helped. I know now that someone understands.
I am Where You Are I don't work chronic headaches lost most of my friends another's and it is hard people don't understand but I do know I'm not alone you're not alone either God bless you
I swear by god im right now in same illness without anyone help even my doctor cannot finded but today i watch some video helped me now i know whats call befor i thought strokes
To try add some positive to the comments I managed to get Botox for the first time two weeks ago after a decade of near continuous migraine. I’m pleased to say it’s made life bearable again. My life goal now is just to try and payoff my home as quickly as possible so I have some security. I’ve suffered everything she says about losing jobs, friends, relationships. It’s tough.
Thank you for sharing. What worked for you!
My heart absolutely goes out to this lady. I know how horrible migraines are and have had them for 25 years.
Thank you for sharing Jessica - stay strong! Xxx
Thank You Jessica for sharing this.
I cried when I saw you. I have chronic daily migraine now. It is so painful and depressing.
I totally feel her pain. I have been dealing with migraines for a long time and now going thru menopause it has gotten worse. I used to get them every Friday leading to my period. And now it lasts the entire circle. It depresses me, and debilitates me. I feel down and don’t even want to be around anyone. I get invited to gatherings and I don’t show up. I hope my family and friends understand what I am dealing with.
Thank you Jessica. BIG THUMBS ☝ for you.
I have the same story. God bless you!
Thank you for this! Yes we need awareness. I've had migraines since i was 9, I am now 27. These past two years my migraines have gotten worse,lucky if i have two good days a week. I literally work between 4 and 10 days a month. Glad to know I'm not alone in my pain.
Thank you so much for posting that! I've had to cut down on my work hours recently, and it absolutely sucks feeling like the "weak link" in a work environment that you love. Thank you... this helps to know I'm not alone.
Thank you Jessica. You made me cry but made me feel less alone than I have in a long time. I will join the FB community. Keep it up.
I'm a migraine sufferer, they're a nightmare. I've just had to cancel a hospital app for another condition as I wouldn't be able to drive to the hospital or function in there with the bright lights and noise because I got a migraine yesterday and its still not gone. As well as the pain migraines tend to affect my spatial awareness, cognition and speech so I can't function well even when the pain has eased. A lot of others don't seem to understand, they just think it's a headache although I did have a very supportive manager once, she had a family member with migraines. I want to share with other sufferers that doing a food diary has so far been the most helpful thing for me. I worked out my worst triggers were gluten and dairy. I'm still getting migraines but not as much as I was. I'm going to continue my food diary to see if there's another trigger I've missed.
Thank you, this touched me to tears...I’m a chronic sufferer as well. God bless you, Angel ❤️
In my case the reason of am graines are gluten and dairy food.I have a diet and Omg much better.God bless you.
Me too, gluten and dairy were massive triggers for me. I wish doctors gave migraine sufferers food diaries, I worked out my triggers myself without a Dr.
Thanks. I have suffering from migraines my whole life, which is 52 years. The last seven years, it went to an entirely different level. I think I was probably very close to having a stroke twice. Unconscious, disoriented. I have had daily auras, day after day after day fr years now; so overtaking that at times I could not even move. I am better now with different treatments. The inter-personal aspect, well, that's what your video had been helpful for. I need a support group, and here it is - they exist. Thanks again.
I live in the uk I’m 48 now and my migraines started at 18, they have ruined and controlled my life too,days off work,invites turned down ,nights out where I’ve had to come home early depression and even panic attacks ,I’ve tried so many medications I now take pitozifen and propranolol and 600 gram of magnesium citrate still get the bad heads but no where as bad as they were,but maybe once a year I do get one where I’m throwing up in bed for days
Hey Mandy. Have you tried modern medicines for migraines like Ajovy or Aimovig? I've heard they could change your life completely. I know a few people who are using them.
Plz try homeopathic 80 percent reduce the frequency and severity of attack
When i get migraines, they hit pretty fukn hard.. first come the auras which completely blind me, then the excruciating headache! I throw up only sometimes, but the only way i can stop them MOST of the time is by taking a nap. When the migraine is over i feel like it’s causing me brain damage and i feel out of reality. Im going to be contacting my Physician about Medical Marijuana because its a New Condition added to the “Conditions List”. To all the migrainers out there, may God Our Lord bless and watch over us all! I hope everything will get better for all of us who struggle with this bullshit. 🖤🙏🏼
Migraine ruined my life for so many years. Absolutely disabled without a treatment, and barely alive with it. May God Almighty cure us all and the suffering beings, ameen
I've had migraines since i was 13, and i just shy of 56 now. For almost 20 years they were manageable with meds(and he occasional trip to he ER). In my early 30s we had a very mi otr car accident, but they think some nerves in my shoulders and neck were damaged. Since then (25 years now), I have not gone 24 hours without a migraine. I lost my career, and with the addition of some other medical issues, I am completely disabled. My son and husband help me manage at home, and i only leave the house occasionally (in a wheelchair, because my balance is shot). I was suicidal about 15 years ago, but my family continues to convince me of my worth to them.
Keep trying! I "KNOW" how hard it is.
Im searching for answers to my migraines at the moment. They can be debilitating can't they, luckily I only get bouts off and on once a month or so but If I don't take paracetamol and ibuprofen I'm in agony. I hope you are living your best life possible now and thank you for making this video for other people who are suffering with migraines. 💕
Respect and love 💚
Jessica Try 2 Magnesium peals take at night i allso put a Band Around My Head like the ones put around there Elbow day time i will put cold water from the Faust on my head it works some time 3 times a day and headaches go away you can put hot water will work it want heal you but it will help you alot
Thank you for the video. I had migraines from my early 20's to late 30's. Usually once a month. I developed blood clots in my right leg and they put me on Coumadin and Lisinopril and the migraine intensity diminished. They come on once in a while but nothing like before. Pain relievers now help with them (they use to make me violently sick).
discoverela once a month?? Lmao i have migraines all days all months its a fucking torture
@@luigi95- I have them usually once a week or more but this year so far is going good
I understand your pain😖and yes people don’t u really understand it ! They think it’s not that serious when it actually more serious than they thought !
I suffer from migraines every week for the past 5 months. I'm on medications and they do help a little bit but the side effects are horrible. These migraines are taking a toll on my health. My job and my social life. I can't handle it anymore.
I hope you're doing better Chris! I hear ya man... It's been hell for me the past year.
You will not pay anything
Just listen to the link with the headphones to the end while you're sitting at home
It is not in English, but its tones eliminate many problems
And tell me what you felt

Are u feeling well now ???
I suffer from migrianes too. They started for me in my early twenties, but I always had headaches throughout my entire life. Although I take a host of medication just to barely function as a human being, I live in fear of getting one everyday. I know it's been seven years since you posted this video, Jessica, but I hope you are doing well.
Such bad luck with who she had as friends! They never were real friends, a friend wants and tries to understand, not abandon.
From South Africa here. I've been suffering silently from migraines everyday since I was 16 years old. I'm 30 now and it seems to be a never ending hell😢
That pain is very exhausting when it comes to our everyday lives we need help I even understand why people commit suicide from these migraines the pain is unbearable I think people who prevent strokes should do more research on migraines instead they just give Tortitol, Compazine, Benadryl and some more bs when you try to express a migraine
Jessica dear, I am a migraine sufferer since I am 5 years old.. today I am 62. Since the age of 45 it became chronic I had these migraine nearly everyday. Of course I take prophylactic medicines and triptans in case of migraine, and I must say that I regularly go way out of the prescribed dosage recommended. But lately after trying sooo many things( acupuncture, homeopathy, reiky, bach flowers, Feldenkreis, etc, etc, etc) I found a few things, mainly linked to food, that help me a lot. I still get migraines. But not as many, not as strong and debilitating, and sometimes they just disappear by themselves. How can I be in touch with you?
Hug
Tamar-Isabelle
I have had mine since I was 4 and IM 16 I get them 4-6 times a week noting works for me they get so bad doctor said that I can have a stroke or seizures and I also puke a lot cause i can't handle the pain it's so bad i also have a migrian rn typeing this😔
What foods helped or didn't help? Can you comment here please to give me ideas I am in the middle of a bad magraine at the moment 💕
Almost daily chronic migraines with me, just coming out of one now (I hope). If one more person suggests I go to the Dr I will explode. Seen dr’s, neurologists, had scans, sent to London migraine clinic by a Dr who just did not know what else to suggest. All they did there was two Daith piercings which did nothing and in fact seemed to increase the intensity. Tried keeping diary, cranial osteopathy, many other treatments, acupuncture etc. I’m 60 now and been getting them since 40 ish. They are ruining my life, I pray for a cure.
Triptans are the only pain relief I get but only on some migraines, others are so intense I actually get terrified
I had first migraine attack in 2011 when i was 25 now i am 37 in beggining i didn't even care after a year it's like starting of a hell kind of life!! I have done everything to get rid of it in last 11 years but never got permanent relief i thought to end my life as well as i was having daily headache am still searching for the cure
I’ve been having a really hard time with migraines. They usually don’t even have a headache with it. Mine make me confused, they make it hard to see, and they make it difficult to speak. The migraine never completely goes away, I’m always ultra sensitive to light. I have to stay away from bright LEDs and flashing lights because they can trigger it to give me the worse confusion symptoms. I’m managing it somewhat now, but I still have tons of extremely bad days. My work has been cut in half. I’ve been stranded away from home for a year and a half because of covid travel restrictions. I have absolutely nothing for a social life other than video chats online with my girlfriend whom I haven’t seen the whole time I’ve been stranded. It really does seem hopeless at times. Living with a migraine that never completely goes away and being completely alone not even wanting to talk to anyone is a hard pill to swallow.
I have them pretty frequently and I really hope it doesn’t get this excessive
🙏😭 I have migraine too. I understand and know how it feels.
I've been living with migraines since as long as I can remember I've only had about 5 headaches and all the others are migraines, I was getting them every 2nd day in NZs first look down
I use to suffer with migraine and now is much better i don't oranges cheese eggs anything with mayo.cucamber you will see the change. I use to go to the hospital all the time but since i stop all those staffs check what you are eating when you get migraine.
I feel your pain sister as I am sufferer for years and sad most don't care nor understand and you are left lonely and abandoned at the end it's a very sad suffering life to wanna live!
For all sufferers out the there try some low doses of high quality magnesium as it does have some nerve calming effect!
Poor woman looks absolutely drained
I wish more people could understand the difference between a headache and a migraine. If I happen to be talking about a migraine episode I had and someone hears that has never had one, they usually do not understand why you would have to call off work, or lay in the bed for hours in pain. They have no clue.
I also suffer with cluster migraines. I will get 2 to 3 a day for about 8 weeks straight and then nothing for a while. It is so frustrating. I am so drained at this point. Having them again now. It is hereditary in my family. =(
Hi, my sympathies, I will try the online community. I have some suggestions that may help. I had chronic migraines, the cause I left my light on all night. I never got more than one every few months after that. The man who left you shouldn't I have had boyfriends that understood, second running will also help, start light and start at the slowest jog. It get rid of some of the dizziness and pain. Best wishes.
Don't worry I have them too
FOR ANYONE WHO CARES I CURED MY MIGRAINES!!!---->. (A little back story I have migraine from 5 years old and they would put me out for days. Vomiting, trouble speaking, shaking, all the good stuff. I tried everything magnesium, it help for a little while and then they came back. ) A Very long, 30 year, story short.... I stared taking wheatgrass juice every day.....and now I haven't had a migraine in years.
The wheatgrass I take is all natural with nothing else in it and completely organic. Mine is in a powder form now, out of convenience, but I believe the only trick is getting it organic. And NO added crap. Good luck guys.
This is a true reality reflection of chronic migraine . You are a survivor , a winner and a saint . Thank you for reflecting this reality . My heart goes out to you . Thank you ❤.
Had migraine for 20 years. Cured instantly by unblocking right coronary artery. That's my happy ending. Tried everything before then. I feel your pain.
You are not alone my sister i am to suffering from this curse ..i know how does it feel..
You become dependent on others you feel helpless and a time comes when you finally give up..
Stay bless sister you are not alone with this nightmare there are many like you im the one of them
I’m sittin here at 16 with migraines, severe anxiety and depression, irregular periods with awful cramps and weird symptoms if I don’t take my birth control, had an emergency surgery for a paraovarian cyst with torsion, a sleep disorder, had a breast fibroadenoma and had surgery for it, and dental problems like WOOO baby I got issues that have unknown causes lmao.
@Myco_tripss on instagram I’m sure you mean well but copypasting this to all the migraine sufferers in the comments makes this seem not so heartfelt. It’s also wise to ask other migraine sufferers if they’re open to new treatment ideas before telling them about it because we can get tired of hearing it when we’re probably working things out ourselves. Plus shrooms are really a last resort that’s still being studied, though it wouldn’t be for me anyways due to other reasons. But thanks
I’ve been suffering from migraines for as long as I can remember. I have been on every medication done everything. But nothing stops them. My husband is great with helping me. I have lost my job and spend more than 1/2 my time in bed in the dark. Now I’m looking into going on disability because I just can’t work like this. Has anyone else got disability for migraines? Is it even possible?
I use beta blockers to prevent migraines and Sumatriptan to head them off when they come. The beta blockers work really well, but if your taking them, don't -for the love of all that is good- take less than you need on any particular day. The right side of my head has erupted in pain in that old familiar way.
Migraines to me are the equivalent of my brain going into labour you just want the pain to stop but it doesn’t go away it just gets worse and persists. I’ve suffered with chronic migraines (3-4 days a week from the age of 6 till the age of 17) but I am nearing 30 now and 90% migraine free.
I’m also epileptic and epilepsy medication finally levelled it out but I also used triptans for years along with strong painkillers and anti-emetics. Your body is honestly so exhausted after the brain storm of a migraine that’s why you feel so weak and fatigued for days afterwards.
I've always wondered why during and even the days after a migraine my body feels weak!
My comment here might not be of much help here but I just want to share my story
I’ve suffered migraines for around 10 years now and the pain and torture is Unbearable but I made a few changes in my life that helped me a little I will not say that the pain has completely stopped and I don’t get it anymore but some changes in the sleep pattern and religious Yoga has improved my condition a lot . To anyone out There please make yoga a part of your life ( I know it takes some time but I promise you it will be worth it)
My pain once lasted 12 days and it made me terribly weak that the doctor had to give me injections and that was exactly the day when I decided that I am never going to give up on improving myself and since then I have religiously done yoga and made lifestyle changes I mean I don’t know how much scientifically all these things are backed up but please anyone out there who is reading this completely abandon junk food, do yoga and try to have peaceful sleeping hours.
Im suffering from this illness, and....is been my day #8
Migraines have ruined everything from going out to small events to relationships struggling. What hurts me the most is when my migraines cause me to not be there for my kids. The pain is one thing. I’ll push through that, but the dizziness, and nausea is so bad I can’t walk around and I can take it anymore
I have been a migraine and tri geminal neuralia sufferer since I was 18 years old. I am now 54. I have a port (my fourth) in my chest so pain and anti nausea meds can be administered..at least 3 times per week. I take many daily preventive medications as well. I've tried acupuncture, complete hysterectomy (to deplete hormones), braces (possible bite issues), sinus surgery, depo medrol injections, brain surgery etc.. I'm at a loss and feel alone.. please let me know how to get connected with this migraine group..
I'm 20 years old now but some of my family said this was only because of not having enough sleep which are totally not I do now I just stay much time outside now I feel I'm not alone and this is situation
I have migrains I had them for over 10 years and IM 16 I was like 4 when I got them
Scary how familiar this is
Im going through the same pain I need help we need help
I’ve been experiencing Migraines on and off since I was 7 I’m 45 now and getting them daily it’s a daily battle
my mom has been suffering with migraines ever since she was a teen and i’ve been getting them lately as well but my mom has it chronically i think it’s genetics because i get them as well..
I been having migraines since I was 5 years old I use to have to take ibuprofen all the time for years
I'm 21 with Chronic Migraines lasting at least 2 weeks at a time.. No medicine works. This sucks. I just want to feel normal and not have to worry if and when its going to hit throughout the day.
I also suffer from migraines trying to get on top of it went from like 4-5 days a week and now I get them once or twice a month from trying different medicines so something is definitely working, hard to know what one because I’ve tried so many
I just read a comment about taking prescribed meds not working all the time. I had the same issue. Crazy enough. Every now and again excedrin headache relief will actually take a lot of the migraine away. But the actual excedrin migraine one does nothing. Really weird. Maybe that will help someone down the road
I feel for you so much. My life is hell :(
You will not pay anything
Just listen to the link with the headphones to the end while you're sitting at home
It is not in English, but its tones eliminate many problems
And tell me what you felt

Anyone have ear ringing too?
I’m watching this cause I have migraines I’ve had them since I was about 5 I’m 37 now I’m over taken meds and the drs
Got post concussion syndrome when i was 14 I'm 15 now and haven't gone to school in 8 monthes. I have migraines too and i know the same shit that's going on.
@Myco_tripss on instagram Thank you so much i'm acctuslly a lot better but looking into microdosing, what was your dose?
I had my first migraine when I was 14 or so, now I'm 17 and it just got worse, my previous meds stopped working completely and I worry that I'm not gonna be able to live a normal life and experience things I would want to, with every migraine I have I would rather die then suffer a second longer, the only thing that keeps me going is the thought of me letting down my family by killing myself, this world is as unjustful as it can be, I get mad when I see people living normal happy lives and thinking to myself "You'll never get that", It's my own body that kills me.
I had a migraine attack once that lasted for over a month straight. I was also having stomach migraines, brain fog and nausea. About a week after I stopped consuming gluten, the migraine attack ended. If you have frequent migraines it could be a food trigger.
Hey Elizabeth. To me the brain fog is the absolute worst. It feels like dementia at the time.
it seems you have gluten intolerance, so stop eating breads and anything which has gluten it, you can eat rice instead or oats maybe.
I have had chronic migraines everyday all day, started over 5 years ago and everyone doesn't know how to help me. I am on load medication to try to keep living with controllable pain.
I just got diagnosed with migraines 😭 I’m 12 it’s the most painful thing
Ever tried suppressants? It works for some of us.
I suffer from migraines and get told that I am exaggerating the pain. But it really changes and affects your everyday life. After I have a migraine then I have a headache that follows for 7 days straight. Over the counter meds make me throw up. Smh
I love you
To all those suffering from migraines, Let me tell you an important thing, people forget that the food we eat has a lot in connection with migraines. Hyper acidity, GERD and other gut health issues have a direct connection with your migraines. My mother used to get migraines because of the hyperacidity in our stomach, she would get early morning around dawn and she used to puke a lot for hours. We always had to get her to an emergency room because her vomiting wouldn't just stop. It was so scary because I was a 7 year old child back then. But after doing a thorough research on her diet, she found out from internet sources that certain people cant digest plant based proteins when they have coffee. Its basically a gut issue because of which the caffeine restricts the digestion of protein in certain individuals which was triggering the hyperacidity and migraines. So she restricted coffee, changed her lifestyle, ate on time and got plenty of sleep. This way her migraines gradually vanished. So try to do a research on your diet, stress and work life and you will know the secret behind your migraines.
People who suffer chronic migraines don't need or want this advice. We know there is no scientific basis for what you are saying for the vast majority of sufferers. The fact is, no one know what causes migraines and there is no cure.
@@hoochygucci9432 you should watch your lifestyle, environmental changes and stress levels. High temperatures, humid weather, sometimes thunderstorms can make people get migraine headaches. It can be anything and I am not saying that drinking caffeine is bad, it depends on the person's food allergies and intolerance levels.
Hi, I get the same look about me when I've got migraine. Since I was 7 it feels like either vagus related, I have chronic anxious feeling in my solar plexus where I can't get a deep enough breath. Also I think it could be oestrogen that gives me them, I was better on the contraceptive progesterone only implant. Or maybe ortho static hypertension which stops the blood vessels getting smaller. I always feel like I've got either too much water or not enough in my head, or too much blood in the veins. I've just had one for five days still got it but it's half as bad now. I considered suicide yesterday it was that bad but I've got grown up kids who need me end of. I hope you are ok xx
