I have had chronic migraines for decades. Many women say it's worse than giving birth; chronic means 3-5x weekly or more. I have found some meds that mostly work for the chronic pain but I still tend to avoid making social commitments and I plan everything with the possibility in mind that I could randomly be struck down with migraines; I'm afraid that one day the meds will stop working. I think I deal with the psychological issues of chronic pain better than most; I have some little mantras and I say things like: "i will not let the pain of yesterday taint the joy of today" "this too shall pass" Quality of life is made of quality of moments. I try to create as many quality moments as I can, and focus on those; I live in these moments and I try to forget the terrible moments. I am wondering if you have any sort of tips for people with chronic migraines or chronic pain?
