What's Up Wednesday

This is such a powerful way to explain what healing actually looks like. Sometimes the pain doesn't go away- but how we handle it is a sign that we are healing. When we stop using negative coping skills and start using healthy ones, that's a great sign!

Motivation Monday

This is one of the best tips I learned recently. It works for any situation and is especially helpful for when we are already irritable or frustrated.
(I've been using it a lot with my kids).
Who could you try this tip on?

Migraine Hangover #ChronicVestibularMigraine #FamilialHemiplegicMigraine #Migraine #NeuronalMigrationDisorders

Migraine Hangover

Life with migraines is no treat. In fact it is plane awful. It sucks the energy right out of you, along with the pain, confusion and fear.

There are all kinds of recommendations for treatments for migraines. Depending on the individual some work, some don’t. It can be expensive and sometimes it takes a along time to find one that works.

For me a couple of over the counter pain killers, an ice pack for my head and an hour or two of napping gets rid of the worst of the migraine.

The hangover after the migraine can consume as much time or as the migraine lasted.

There is a pulsing pressure all over the head that feels unrelenting. Maybe the worst sensation is with the vision, the room or surrounding area move in and out and sideways back and forth. This gives an uneasy feeling in the head and the gut. This is accompanied by a feeling of being lightheaded that moves from the back of the neck towards the front of the head. There is an unsettling sensation that starts a the back of the neck and travels throughout the brain. It is like there something there underneath the skin that needs to be rubbed but it cannot be reached. Often the whole body has a tingling that craves to be touched. And there is the dizziness and the feeling of nausea that comes and goes without warning.

I have had migraine that have lasted a couple of hours or several hours. The migraine hangover has almost always lasted longer.

💡 A Coping Skills Toolbox!

A coping skills tool box can be virtual or physical. This is one of the coolest things I ever learned in group therapy.
I have an album for a virtual one in my phone, and a physical one using a small zipper pouch (I'll put the photo in the comments!)
Use this anytime you're struggling, escalated or having a hard time! #PTSD
