FUCK migraines. 1

Have a migraine kicking into gear right now, not quite at peak but it will find its way there in a couple of hours. Such fucking bullshit, I hate dealing with this every week. On top of trying to link trigger foods- which is impossible- I take vitamin D, and magnesium supplements.
I guess I'm do for a mushroom trip or need to start microdosing again to see If I can get them in remission again.
I know theres tons of threads on here about it but I feel this is always a good discussion to start.
What do you guys do in preventative measures?
I'm against all man made medications even IB and Tylenol so I just grin and bare them in the dark. Plus if the death nausea hits taking medication is pointless.
thank god for

Do you use caffeine? I had to quit coffee because of the migraines. I also used to get them when I was addicted to pain killers.

I've cut my caffeine usage down by like 95% and I think it has helped a lot. Going from coffee everyday to once a week. Now that you mention it this past weekend I had more coffee than I usually do.
At the same time though so many foods I try to link to triggers I can eat other times and be completely fine. I guess thats the thing with triggers though, it doesn't have to happen all the time to be one

I find that naproxen works wonders for my headaches (I know you hate pharms but it's what works for me).
Other than that, kratom works amazingly.

How is your stress levels? How many fucks do you give this world?
I have a theory that giving fucks returns migraines. As in, you bought the migraines with your fuck bucks.
Let your fuckfield be barren. Don't even water it.

Have you tried microdosing? And by that I mean 0.5g for the migraines that make your head explode and light and sound hurt.

Yea this, people report a lot of success with microdosing mushrooms for migraines. When you feel it coming take a dose.

I get migraines on a regular basis the debilitating can't stand up without puking lasts 6-12 hours bullshit. As one other member said naproxen sodium (aleve) 3-4 and pound water and or Gatorade if I catch it early enough will knock it out otherwise if it's too far gone I can only manage it with hot bath or soak in the hot tub with some natural essential oils lavender or rosemary and plenty of fluids. I did notice the frequency of them would taper back when I was actively micro dosing. I hope this helps a little.

I think Timethyl has the right idea, but to put it more precisely, I suspect that migranes are related to noradrenaline levels, because when I have high noradrenaline for too long it pretty much always results in a migraine.

I have foods that give me terrible indigestion. They don't every single time but sometimes they do.
Food you aren't hestimicly allergic to don't necessarily cause reactions 100% of the time. Just like 75 or even 50% of the time. Believe me I know how much of a bitch it is to figure out.
For anyone attempting to find trigger foods for any condition I suggest going to a caveman diet. Mostly raw or lightly cooked fruits and veggies with additive free free-range poultry and wild caught fish. And then slowly introducing foods back into your diet after a month of just that (to get it out of your system.) like one week you add cheese back into your diet. Every other meal to every meal. Then bread. Then pasta. Ect ect.

I've never had a migraine before, except one time a few years ago I had what is known as an ocular migraine? Where my peripheral vision started kelidescoping like on LSD, which was scary, I thought something was seriously wrong. I went home and drank water and wine to relax and went to sleep and woke up and it was gone. It somehow started when I was dehydrated, fasting from food and smoking cigarettes.

Haha, I feel that bro.
What I always do is close your eyelids and then press your eyeballs with you fingers. If you've ever heard that song by slipknot. I PUSH MY FINGERS INTO MY EYEEEESSSS, ITS THE ONLY THING THAT SLOWLY STOPS THE AYYY-ACHE. Kills headaches fast but temporary. I'm a drinker so I get headaches more often then not. Try aspirin and a cup of tea.

I always wanted weed to help migraines, but it never did for me.
Mushrooms are like a magic bullet for them though. After a couple of years of microdosing when I got them, I just don't get them anymore. I think it's been over a year, and I used to get them frequently for 30+ years. I also trip at least every month or two, and did quit smoking tobacco last year...which did seem to be a trigger.
One of the last ones I got, I smoked a little bit of DMT, and it was almost like pushing an off button for the migraine. Its like something popped and the pressure changed.

I like the way you think 
I like the way you and your partner make music and art, I listened to 15'ish songs the other night and never got bored. The tribal euphoric feel of songs like Earthson just caught me. That song in specific almost feels like it has Maori influence, like haka ceremonies in New Zealand.

Micro dosing is a great medicine I found, .5g of dried mushroom into a regular tea or coffee does the trick. If I don't have mushrooms I'll put a quarter of an LSD tab, the LSD will be noticeable at a quarter dose, but it's blissful and chill.

I noticed it in several people, especially my GF, if she gets stressed there is an immediate onset of a headache or migraine.

Your first post!? Welcome bro. I really loved Slipknot when I was younger and I still listen now and then. Slipknot was a stress reliever for me when I really needed it.
Now I don't even let the stress nest in my tree, I put lube all over the branches so when it tries to land it just slips off.

Weed always made my headaches worse but I think its the smoke. Sometimes when I had a late night heavy toke session I'd wake up to rabbid squirrels trying to bust out of my skull.
I'm with Tmethyl. Mushies are the magic migraine remedy.

Sorry guys had to get off the computer and go lay down last night, the day after is always kind of an off day as well.
Too high and too many fucks but that is life when you have a family to take care of. I'm pretty good about not giving 2 shits about meaningless things. I do think this is a part of the recipe
I have tried micodosing in the past, seemed effective and I think I'm going to start again. I honestly think its what put my migraines in remission in the first place.
Trigger foods are a bitch, i'm linking them to milk, certain low quality breads/pastas, soy, sometimes darkchocolate it helps being vegetarian but when I don't put the work into planning your nutrition it can get unbalanced real quick
Yeah I can press around my eye, down around my neck, even around my jaw and it all relieves the pain temporarily. Darkness and very hot showers help temporarily too.
I really do think it has to do with adrenal fatigue and crashes. It makes sense that salt helps sometimes because of this.
weed doesn't ever take away the pain or cure the migraine but it makes it tolerable. Brings me back to feeling like a person again and helps tremendously if I have nausea.
