Bobbie, Bobbie, Bobbie...   How can I begin to have you see how rude and offensive you are being?  Did anyone ever tell you it's rude to accuse people you don't even know of laziness and stupidity?  Did anyone ever tell you and Louise Hay how rude, offensive, and wrong it is to tell people with a disease that the disease is all their fault?  Did anyone ever tell you that it is simplistic and idiotic to think there is one answer to a complex issue, that works for everyone?  Or that even if you think you have the one answer, you will win any converts by insulting people?    Some of us have read Louise Hay's book.  Some of us think it's garbage.  If you look around, you can see it was reviewed on this site.  Some of us believe that Lousie Hay has done a great deal of harm by blaming the victims!  She must have come up with a new explanation (maybe her first one didn't work so she fished for another?) because when I first saw the book she said Migraine was caused by unreleased anger.   Unreleased anger, fears about sex, what next?  Inadequate potty-training?     For your information, I have no fear about sex.  Quite the contrary.  You don't know anything about my sex life or those of the other members of this site.  Everyone is not sexually repressed, you know.  There was a sexual revolution about 30 years ago, maybe you've heard of it?  There's a lot less sexual repression than there used to be.  But you may be amazed to know - the number of Migraine sufferers did not suddenly drop when people became less sexually repressed!  Why is that?  Maybe that's because Migraine is a neurological disease which has been described throughout human history, not a result of sexual fears, angry thoughts, or anything else in our "minds."   Having a great sex life is peachy.  Relaxing and releasing anger is dandy.  These things are good for us.   But they don't change our basic neurological makeup.    I could be happy for you that your Migraines have gotten better.  That happens to some people.  But it's hard to be really happy for anyone who says I have a lazy butt. I am working hard all the time to manage my disease, improve my health, care for my family, help other migraineurs, and make a living.  My butt is extremely hard-working and takes great exception to your butt calling it names!   - Megan
