Chronic Migraine Awareness

Chronic Migraine Awareness would like to thank Abby for sharing

I am currently experiencing migraine while I write this.

Myth: Migraine only lasts a few hours. 

Truth: Migraine is a complex neurological disease, therefore it is something I battle 24/7 since I was diagnosed in 2012. If I’m not avoiding triggers or having an attack, I’m in prodrome or postdrome. There is no beginning or end. 

Action: If someone you know suffers from migraine, ask what you can do to help reduce triggers. For example, not wearing strong perfumes or dimming lights.
