Migraine is not what I would call a social illness. In fact, I would describe my migraine disease as quite the opposite.

Stress is the perfect word for the free space in the center of a buzzword bingo card.

Finding a balance between safety and experiencing the wonders of the world is difficult when it comes to managing a weather migraine, but not impossible.

Coming to terms with another human being’s quirks is difficult enough without adding migraine into the mix.

Migraine is part of my social life whether I like it or not. I don’t hide it and I don’t apologize for it. I’m not for everyone, and that’s fine.

I’d love to say I can’t substitute riced cauliflower for jasmine rice for medical reasons. That’s not how it works though.

No matter how diligent I am with prevention management, some triggers are unavoidable.

Much like any other illness, there are elements of living with migraine that only a migraine warrior can fully understand.

There are tons of different items related to sight, sound, smell, and taste that can be the culprits in sparking an episode. Too bad there isn’t an easy test for identifying a trigger.

The journey won’t always be easy, but it is possible to live a good life with the incurable illness of migraine in tow.
