Here’s my doodle of a person with a migraine. Migraines are turrible.
I haven’t been feeling well in the past few months. It’s caused me to miss a few events recently, which is totally disappointing. I told some folks I’d be at those events because I was really looking forward to them, but I didn’t make it for health reasons. That stinks.
There’s good news for me, though.
I now know that I’ve been getting migraines. Like, the heavy-duty, no-joke, for-real migraines. It’s good to finally understand what’s happening, though. Now I can better prepare the next time this beast rears its ugly head.
Let me tell you: migraines are no joke. It’s way more than just a headache. It’s flu-like symptoms that make you wanna crawl into a hole somewhere deep inside the earth, where it might be quiet and dark enough to breathe normally. I could go on and on — and totally gross you out — but instead I’ll tell you that migraines are just rotten.
Writing about my health online is kinda weird, mostly because there are more important things to discuss. But this is something I want to share because … well, it’s what I’m handling at the moment. And it has caused me to miss out on some stuff.
I’m an intensely private person at times. I tend to retreat in order to handle things on my own. I don’t wanna talk about my problems because they aren’t all that important in the scheme of things. Know what I mean?
There so much going on in my world right now. Most of it is really, really exciting stuff! These migraines, on the other hand, can take a hike. I don’t have time to feel rotten. There are too many fun things to be doing.
