Hi Guys,
I have to say for the first time in ages I'm having a really long lingering sense of anxiety and doom, and all because of my migraines I think. Since they got more frequent I began researching them, went ot the drs yesterday and had a talk and now i know of some preventive measures to take and things to do when I have a migraine... but its worried me more!
It's health anxiety but instead of imagining I have something, I know I suffer from migraines and really, I'm better off but i find myself fearing them more. I had a migraine on thursday and I dealt with it very well, in fact I felt ok while having it, it was only afterwards in the evening I got all panicky - you could read about what I did in another post in the tips section cos I'm quite proud of myself - but its still horrible and I'm very anxious.
I've got some rescue remedy here too but I'm even afraid to take that because i hate taking things I've never used before. I'm not terrible but i just feel like tyhere is nothing to look forward to at the moment, like migraines and anxiety is my life and its really getting me down. It doesn't help that I know summer is on its way too and I've always had a history of migraines in the summer because of the humid weather and the bright sunshine. Ive spent most opf the day doing relaxation exercises because I don't feel comfortable doing anything else.... any help please??

It's just my high anxiety getting to the best of me. I call him Bingbongilypoop. Then I can laugh at him cos he has a funny name. HAHA! [points]
