so last night when i got home i started getting a migraine. stupid me, i didn't take anything for it until almost 9pm. and by then it was incredibly too late and full blown. i laid down until jeff got home around 10:30ish. i woke up and the migraine was still full blown, if not worse. he gave me some of my hydrocodone...and that didn't help either

thanks pretty girl! yeah... ever since i stopped taking the meds i'm having the worst migraines i've had in years. it jsut really sucks b/c i have to stay off of them...but they're the only thing that actually works.

sigh... i am just tired of being in so much pain. i know the main factor is stress, and i can't seem to stop stressing.

you know.. it's even more frustrating b/c most people truly just dont understand what it feels like to get a migraine. they think, oh it's a bad headache. NOOOO it's completely different! even with a bad headache you don't feel like your brain is trying to bust it's way out of your skull.

my entire body hurt last night.. and concurrently, today. the pain was so intense last night that my brain felt cold and tingly. have you ever had that happen? basically with mine i feel like someone has shot me in the face and there is no head anymore.. only pain. i feel disconnected from the rest of myself and the only sensation is god awful excuriating pain... which still doesn't seem to do what i actually feel like as justice.

and i know that you have similar ones to mine.. it's nice to have someone that can truly understand where you're coming from. but i am sorry that you have them as well. cuz they're not fun! :(

When I have the ones that feel like I was shot in the face or bludgeoned with a baseball bat I get mildly hallucinatory from all the damn endorphins rushing around to try and kill the pain. It's pain beyond crying and I just lay there in a strange trance-like state of pain(in a cold dark room of course).I can't move because I'll get sick if I do, but sometimes getting sick means the headache is almost over for me. Those headaches usually give me hangovers in the postdrome phase where I am spacey(like can't think straight at all), worn out, and my head feels like it' s hollow where the headache was.

that's exactlyyyy how i'm feeling today. i'm slow, off balance, can't think straight, can barely form a complete sentance/thought. yeah.. that's me today. and yes... my head does feel kinda spacey, dull ache.. like a weird sort of hangover.

i kept wanting to puke last night when i'd get up to go pee... but i couldn't actually puke. i thought, well maybe if i do i'll actually start to feel better. no such luck.

our brains suck ass
