A few month’s ago, during a #MigraineChat, I asked you all what you wished you had known about #migraine sooner. You gave me almost 50 tips; many of which were mentioned *multiple* times. - Do you have questions about any of these? - What else would you add? (Cont.)

That was one of the biggest 💡moments on my #migraine journey. I used to feel weak compared to my friends. They seemed to handle life better than me. But it's just that I have to deal with quite some more input, be it stress or weather changes or ... Knowing this, helps.

Do you have a child with #migraine? You can get involved in research by Happyr Health® and University of Stirling and help them improve an online course aimed at parents of young people with migraine. Find out more and get involved here: migrainetrust.org/clinical-trial…

Although I lived with migraine all my life, I didn't know about the migraine brain for a loooong time. But it's quickly explained in a few minutes 📽️

We are still recruiting parents to help us evaluate this course specifically designed for parents of a child with migraine! Participants can access the course for free by using the code PARENTSURVEY22 #migraine #parenting

If a child lives with #migraine it does not only impact the child. It equally impacts the parents! #Parent #wellbeing is highly important so you can be your child's best migraine supporter 🫶 youtu.be/2Q-D6ymAeyk

It's highly important and necessary that we depict migraine not only as a physiological disease. It's not. It's #emotional and #social too. And stigma plays a big role in migraine related quality of life and migraine disability.

I could never really describe what it feels like to take triptans, meds for migraine. Until one day, when I put a bit too much wasabi on my sushi... 🍣 In Happyr Health®'s latest video, I am talking about what it feels like to take triptans (at least for me).

In my research with ImperialSCARU we looked at emotional wellbeing in #migraine management and found that pharmaceuticals still dominate the treatment despite previous promising results using a multidisciplinary approach. Migraine is not just physical, it's emotional & social.

I'm sure we all struggle with unhelpful thought patterns. I for sure did when it comes to migraine. If you do as well, don't miss our quick intro video to three of the most common #cognitive distortions and tips how to overcome them!
