Hello all. My name is Steve (ocnprl) and I stumbled across this site while looking up poems about headaches. I don't suffer from Migraines unfortunately, I suffer from very bad Cluster Headaches. For those of you who aren't familiar with them, they are also called "suicide headaches" for a very good ...

One of my best friends sufferers horribly with cluster headaches. It's really an almost undescribable disease.

I'm a bit confused though. What do you mean by "Can I be your spirit guide?"

Hi Arabella. Don't be frightened. It's just a line from a song that helped me get through

some hard times. It's a positive thing, not spiritual. Just a matter of concentrating on the positive and good rather than dwelling on the negative's like suffering.

Here's a little more of it, might make a little more sense:

"Hey hey it's okay to never know

the answer but ask why.
'cause you don't need another burden
come and party with your spirit guide.

I said hey, don't get your head a mess.
This is cracker soul it comes so easy.
I said hey, don't get yourself distressed.
Love is just the best when comes easy.
It comes so easy......"

hi steve, i'm lori.... or chickie to most of my freinds.

i have long suspected that what i have is more cluster type headache than migraine, but i get them on average of 2 a week, not daily.

what you described is like what i go through about once a month, except mine last for hours.

i have never been able to describe the pain to anyone. and if asked at any point in hte attack, my description might be different.

no doctor seems to believe me, except my PCP, who is limited in his ability to help me. so i simply suffer. take what drugs they give me, and pray that each attack will be the last.

suicide has crossed my mind several times, but i can't do that to my kids. or my husband, who does all he can to take care of me.
