(To the tune of "Rain Rain Go Away")
Migraines Migraines go away!
Don't come again another day.
I just want to live my life.
Migraines Migraines go way!
This is my prayer because these migraines are too much!!! Have you experienced pain from migraines?
It feels like your head is gonna explode. Imagine this..turning your head and feeling like your brain is bouncing around like a basketball. "Don't look at the light!" Because then you feel like a shock of lightning struck your brain. The volume of the TV is only on 5 but it feels like it's on 100. And now, you're nauseous and vomiting... NOT a pleasant experience.
Don't get me wrong, everyone doesn't experience these symptoms, but most of these are very common like throbbing and pounding.
Some things that cause migraines are:
1. Stress
2. Anxiety
3. Overexertion
4. Not enough sleep (or too much sleep)
5. Skipped meals
And the sad thing is, women are at a higher risk of migraines than men are. This is why self-care is so important!! You can also be at risk if it runs in your family, or if you have another medical condition like depression, sleep disorder, bipolar disorder, and epilepsy. We didn't ask for this!
For those of you who have experienced migraines, how do you treat symptoms? Is it by drinking more water, getting more sleep, eating sufficient and nutritious meals, herbal teas, medicine? There are many ways to treat the symptoms of migraines, one of which we included in our April Box.
