Migraine is literally one of the top 5 *worst* things I have *ever* experienced

*i‘m not kidding*

"Pain usually goes away with sleep." I WISH

[veronicarossini]

Pain usually goes away with sleep? To me more like: after taking pills and/or shots, vomiting for 12 hours and just basically wanting to die, you crawl into the bed and when you wake up migraine might be gone.... or not.

Migraines are honestly the worst thing to ever go through. Would not wish it on anyone

[geek_aflame]

The worst migraines are ones that start while sleeping :(

It's usually to late to take medication upon waking...

[avantikaroy]

Death seems more suitable and bearable than my migrane attack tbh.

Them: "Pain usually goes away with sleep"
Me: "What if the person cant sleep because of pain"

I hate seeing those flashing lights and losing temporarily my vision ... I always have nausea... That's so painful ..and disturbing to have..

[sarahsmith]

Hahaha speaking as someone with chronic headaches/migraines i call this the understatement of the year

[SpringSpark]

When I partially lost my sight during a migraine I legit thought I'm going blind. Never been so scared in my life before. And nobody knows what triggered it, so it can always happen again.

[eyrunjohannsdottir]

Is it just me that gets a flash of headache every time I laugh, cough, sneeze, jump or generally just when moving my head the 2 days following after a migraine?

[samsomera]

There are times I literally slam my head with my fist just to take the throbbing pain away and I would cry and I'd the feel the worse after haha. Gotta love migraine amirite.

[Ashleysharpe]

"Throbbing pain may be present." Well it is a migraine for a reason 🤔

[dprattify]

Don't forget the extreme vertigo!
When I migraine strikes for me it's like I just can NOT win. When I lay down to "sleep" I feel like I'm on a boat. I know I'm laying flat but my head feels like I'm bobbing along down a river.

[xrhstosxv]

Worst thing you can do is get an afternoon sleep while you have a headache.

TRUST ME I'VE DONE THIS you wake up and the pain is basically 10 times worse

[tabassumnikhath]

Slept with one sided pain but woke up with another side... Migraine ☹️😣😂😂

[Simply_Lyly]

As someone who deals with 3 types of migraines and has them on almost a daily basis, I can say that everything in this video is VERY spot on! Although the time frame for me personally is longer, and sleep doesn't help much.
Thank you for making a video about this! 😀 Hopefully it makes it easier for people to understand what migraines really are.

I get migraines all the time and to help I lie in bed turn off all the lights and open my window, I try to sleep but if I can't I just lie there. This helps me all the time.
