My experience-Mental health struggle caused by chronic migraines
I hope this isn’t too heavy, and I am totally understand if this gets deleted, but I need some kind of vent, and maybe this /r is the best place for it. My migraines got chronic again (since four months) : 3 days migraine, followed by 1-2 days migraine free in an endless circle. And they got really really bad and pretty painful again. I just screamed through the whole night because of the pain (third day) and only a triptan was able to put me to sleep.
I am actually quiet used to it, but the emotional pressure it puts on me is a lot. Only the last three days I had to cancel all my plans. With friends of mine that I all hadn’t seen in quiet a while. And today a birthday I was excited about for months now. And it makes me really depressed. They all understand, because everyone of them had witnessed me having an attack already and they know that I can’t do shit about it. But I still fell very lonely. Socially isolated even. I do take prophylaxis (and we are thinking about the migraine injections as well, but I have to try another medication before that, even though this one was the first that ever helped me so I am quiet sad that it stopped), I am in a process of applying to a rehabilitation centre and I am eating for a place for psychological therapy, but the waiting queues are quiet long.
Soo.. my problem is that I started to experience heavy thoughts about ending it all. And I did too, when my migraine was this bad a year ago (and the years before). And I have problems dealing with it. I don’t want to go to a hospital or my doctor and tell them that, bc I would have to go to a psyachatric clinic, but the thoughts just accrue because of the migraines, so that wouldn’t help me at all. Now I am just wondering if someone else feels like this as well? And what you do about it? Because I’m really don’t want to end it, but the thoughts are nearly as painful as the migraines itself.
Idk. What’s your advice?
