Rebuilding my life has been tough. Things I loved to do, I no longer can or will do out of fear of triggering another migraine. My favorite pasttime, playing soccer is gone. With it went the socialization and comraderie that goes along. After a mere couple years of migraines, I prefer to stay at home as a precaution. Not a good tactic to take, but it seems everything I do revolves around the migraines...be it what will set another one off, or having one. And of course all these worries certainly doesn't help my migraines at all (not). What do others do for the isolation feeling? Had I a broken limb, it would be much easier since others can see and relate to such a thing. I prefer a "quiet" lifestyle as I still have much to learn about other "triggers". My migraines started with a car accident several years ago. I have at least 2 migraines a week and am still trying to learn other ways to "predict" or respond to them. When the migraines arent present, the headache alone puts me in a "hot place". I am not totally debillitated and forced to stay on my back, and the headaches are so bad and constant, that it makes "functioning" awful. I have a high tolerance for pain, but this has been a very humbling experience.
