Chronic Migraine Awareness

Chronic Migraine Awareness, Inc. would like to thank Judith for sharing her story with us.

I educate myself to educate others by being a part of the ARMS Program-Advocates Removing Migraine Stigma with CMA, Attending the Retreat Migraine Conferences Virtually, being in online support groups with Foundations and Organisations, by keeping up to date with reputable websites, brochures, publications and webinars. By hearing and supporting others like myself who also live with Migraine and being part of an amazing supportive community.

I collect any resources needed from Community Health centers. By following and saving resources from org’s in my country in Australia as well. I am also a Community Leader with Shades for Migraine campaigns. 

Some of my advocacy includes joining awareness projects with community groups online and by collecting resources from Migraine org’s and sharing with Medical centers and local community. I get triage kits and Rally Kits from Chronic Migraine Awareness Inc. I Download info or factsheets from organizations or summits. By Joining Walk and  Relax events or other Awareness events online. I also advocate by attending discussions or training sessions. Through awareness graphics or animations and videos and I participate in surveys and research opportunities.

I am always actively involved in Migraine and Headache Awareness Month. I love making friends with people from around the world who also live Migraine because we can all learn from each other.

I read books and magazines as well as rack cards and I learn from Migraine and Headache specialists. I also enjoy listening to educational podcasts and by tracking changes through online apps and diaries.
