Migraines are terrible. Migraines during a pandemic? Even worse. Here's how to get some relief.
have extra challenges to deal with these days. We spoke with a few to find out how they’re getting some migraine relief these days.I’ve just accepted I have to step away from the screen“When I do get migraines, it is right before or at the beginning of my period. Lately they have been mild and just ‘headaches,’ but this time around it was a migraine.
“So to cope I took a break from screens and my work because the light and screen sensitivity is huge. I took a break from my phone screen too. It’s not even like I have a choice—I cannot use it when it’s that bad. I listened to movies and podcasts to occupy my mind because I couldn’t do anything. I slept a lot.” —Julie-Anne B., 30“I actually had some really nasty ones when this all started.
“Trying to do everything I can to stay healthy is how I face every day right now. Good sleep is key too. No more getting up so early with a high schooler and no more activities three nights a week.” —Laura S., 49“I had several migraines last week, and I’m assuming they were triggered by the extra stress, though I’m never sure.
“I have had one almost every day since, and they are the worst intensity. It is completely awful and it’s making coping with the pandemic that much harder because I can’t fight away bad mental health if I am in so much pain. “Exercise can help stave them off in my case, but bright light can trigger them, so I’ve been struggling with whether to go on a walk if I suspect I’m in prodrome—that’s been the biggest change.
