My experience-Are aura migraines commonly linked to anxiety?
Hi people. I just had my first aura migraine last week, it started slow, but it lasted three days and it was horrible. It was impossible to move, impossible to move my head, I had nausea the entire time. It was impossible to cook, almost impossible to go to the bathroom. Sleeping a bit to improve it would only make it worse, and the aura... the aura made it so scary and difficult to sleep. It was basically a constant 9/10 headache with aura that would not subside or go away for thee days straight. At one point I desperately called home and asked my family to go pick me up (I was in my university apartment, and I was at loss for how to handle the situation as I was not autonomous). Needless to say this was pretty fucking bad, like one of the worst experiences of my life and I am not joking, and I do not wish this to happen again, hence I am trying to see what the causes could be so that I can avoid them for next time.
My doctor diagnosed me with aura headache and gave me Rizatriptan, which seems to do absolute wonders to my migraine. It was about to start again, but with one of these pills the pain went from 5/10 to 1/10 for the entire day to disappear completely overnight, whereas previously it had easily gone to 9/10 intensity.
However, as I have been wondering what the causes of this are, I will just say that I have been going through some pretty traumatic feelings in my life, with very bad anxiety levels and crying myself to sleep... more than once. Did any of you start getting migraine + aura attacks as a result of anxiety or some particularly distressing period, or is it completely unrelated? Basically, I am trying to see if I can connect the aura migraine to the anxiety symptoms, or if it is something completely unrelated and it is mere coincidence it had to happen now.
