Yup, I am the migraine queen. I experience chronic migraines (migraines for at least fifteen days a month), and I completely understand how difficult they can be to deal with when you're already struggling. Oftentimes, migraines, like many health issues, can be symptoms of greater problems your body is trying to get you to address. Stress and lack of sleep are both known to influence them, which are common things to experience when you're depressed.

Luckily, migraines and their causes are usually manageable. If the pain keeps up, I totally recommend going to a doctor about it; it really makes a difference. Best of luck, and let me know if I can help you learn more ways to cope with them!!
