I HATE MIGRAINES, ARRRG!!!

Mine always start with an "aura" or spots in my vision. When that happens, I pop a couple excedrin migraine pills as soon as I can, sometimes it helps loads, sometimes it doesn't do a damn thing.

Then I just crawl into my closet with a bag of ice, close the door, and stuff a pillow under the door so the evil white light doesn't get in. Then I just hold on for dear life.

It's awful when I get a migraine when I'm not at home. I can't see a damn thing cause of the "aura" in my eyes. Then I can't hear a damn thing because the pain is so bad. Plus I get all hot and sweaty and really ugly looking.

Usually dramatic changes in my sleep schedule trigger them, such as getting 7 hours of sleep all week, then getting 10 hours of sleep on the weekend. Other times they're allergy related, those are the ones that hurt the most.

It's comforting to know that other people suffer from this horrible pain :P
