My experience-How do I convince my foster family that I’m not high/drunk but that the pain is just that bad?



quick history: I’ve been a foster since I was 14, now 18, (I’ve been in the foster system a lot longer than that, this is just my second time in the system). My FM, (Foster family), are genuinely kind and caring people , I have no complaints about them whatsoever, been with them for around 8 months now.

Now onto the main issue:

i’ve had migraines ever since I was 11, and I’ve learned over the years that it’s best not to express too much emotion, as that can make the pain worse.

I now act like i’m “high”/“drunk” whenever I get a migraine, but in reality I’m just trying my best not to wail in pain and make it worse.

the only problem is, my FM thinks I’m on drugs, and they continuously ask if I was given something, and ask what I had eaten earlier in the day at school.

I know they mean well, and that they genuinely do care about me, but it was upsetting listening to them and not being able to express my frustration without slurring my words and heightening the pain.

how do I convince them that the pain is just that bad?
