The whole concept of migraine triggers is just perfectly suited for making disabled people who are already suffering waste time & energy obsessing over every single thing they do every day, especially their diets, and to then blame themselves for their attack like their problem is a lack of discipline & willpower and not the fact that they have a chronic illness. If you get migraines, that isn't because your lifestyle & diet isn't sufficiently optimized, it's because you have a migraine disorder.
My neurologist didn't waste any time trying to get me to identify triggers and just got me on the right meds as soon as she could and I'm so glad she never made me feel like it was somehow my fault.
I'm now finally on a preventative that works for me & I literally don't do anything differently but I went from having daily migraines to sometimes not having a single one for over a week. I could do & consume every supposed trigger & still not get a migraine, when before the medication, I could do everything "right" every day for a week & still get a migraine every single day.
It's always like it's a medical disorder that causes your body to react badly to certain normal daily things & the goal should be to make it do that less, not to find ways to totally avoid all those normal daily things.
Yeah...they're caused by migraine disorders. Because people without them don't get migraines on a regular basis.
The chocolate advice is probably bullshit too. Unless you specifically identify it as something that makes your migraines worse (unlikely), it's way more likely to just be a common craving people have during the prodrome phase before the pain starts. If it's your body signaling you that it wants chocolate, there's no reason not to eat it.
Also, my neurologist said if you take triptans, take them during the headache phase immediately when it starts, not during the aura.
This isn't just my opinion btw, it's the current state of migraine research that shows that a) evidence for the belief that specific foods can trigger an entire migraine in someone who would've otherwise not had it is just not there and b) people are prone to misidentifying "triggers" and c) some "common triggers" have been shown in research to have protective qualities against migraines in some people and finally, d) the most up to date approach is to, instead of chasing possible triggers, raise your migraine threshold, which for some people can be achieved only with medication, but stuff like exercise & a nutritious diet could possibly also help you become more resistant too, once your threshold has been raised enough that you have the spoons for it, that is.
Learn more about how “triggers” may actually be signs of migraine prodrome and why identifying migraine triggers is not always easy.
Sometimes when people attempt to carefully track and avoid all their triggers, it creates a sense of guilt. When we think about it this way, the burden is on the person with migraine to avoid their triggers, and people may feel that if they experience an attack, it’s because of their own behavior.
“Many times it is just the disease,” says Dr. Halker Singh. “This is the unpredictable nature of migraine. I think we carry enough on our shoulders as it is without the added stigma or guilt [around triggers].”
Instead, we can shift to a healthier conversation about awareness in migraine management by learning to recognize prodrome symptoms and early signs of a migraine attack. This puts the focus on a deeper, more personalized understanding of each individual’s own unique experience with migraine.
“I think making that shift is a little bit freeing and allows us to separate ourselves from migraine,” says Dr. Halker Singh. “My personal relationship with my migraine changes a little bit—I can separate from my own guilt and say, ‘OK, this is happening, what can I do about it?’”
This kind of shift enables someone with migraine to focus more on self-care and addressing what their body needs in the moment during an attack.
New research reveals that 82% of suspected migraine triggers may be false. Learn how science is challenging traditional beliefs about migrai
Your diet can sometimes impact your migraine. Learn which foods are suspected triggers and how to adjust what you eat to help prevent or rel
One study compared headache activity between two groups of people living with migraine while they followed different diets. One diet eliminated foods commonly thought to trigger migraine attacks, and the other diet required patients to eat those same foods. Interestingly, headache frequency improved on both diets. This suggests that particular foods are not likely to trigger an attack, but rather that following a consistent, healthy diet may itself be therapeutic. In other words, feeling that you have control over your headaches may improve your headache symptoms. It also suggests that no single food is a trigger for all people living with migraine.
There's lots of people in the tags going well my dad's uncles grandma cut X out of her diet & it cured her migraines.
If you're a chronic migraine haver please please learn to ignore all of that. There's always going to be people claiming that doing keto/paleo/gluten-free or cutting out seed oils/sugar/MSG and taking 15 different supplements cured their chronic illness and migraine is much the same. I'm not saying they're lying, they can absolutely believe that's what happened but it doesn't mean any of that is going to work for you nor do you have to try it.
I had some of my worst most painful headaches while on strong painkillers, at the hospital, eating only bland low sodium vegan hospital food and getting fluids straight into my veins because apparently, the stress of surgery & recovery made my migraine disorder worse. Despite me being on Emgality. That's just what being chronically ill is like sometimes, there's not much you can do. Some of us can't self-optimize ourselves out of it, despite what every armchair neurologist & dietitian seems to think.
[Image IDs: Image #1: Tumblr tags reading: at the start of the year we had this lecturer at work on health and safety and stuff, and the dude kept going on abt how migraines are always cause by something and how u cant rly get migraines for no reason, and like.... the 1st thing i got told back when i got diagnosed was that there isnt rly a specific trigger, yeah sure ive made some changes to my diet bc some stuff actively messes with me and also with my digestion at the same time lol, but beyond that ultimately personal choice of mine??, i only got told to take painkillers when ive got an aura and not eat chocolate whilst in a crisis lol
Image #2: Specific foods have often been thought to trigger migraine attacks in the past. For example, some commonly reported migraine triggers included alcohol (especially red wine and beer), chocolate, age cheese, cured meats, smoked fish, yeast extract, food preservatives that contrain nitrates and nitrites, artificial sweetners, and monosodium glutamate (MSG).
However, evidence for foods triggering migraine attacks is actually rare, and doctors now think that many commonly accepted food "triggers" are more likely food cravings experienced during the prodrome phase of an attack. Additionally, it's important to remember that migraine attacks are often due to multiple factors. When you're already stressed, not sleeping well, or not exercising, certain dietary factors may make it more likely to have a migraine attack—but in this case, it is the combination of all of these different things that contribute to the attack, not just one specific food. /End ID]
Cool, so you want natural fiber costumes with no/nuanced corset slander, people wearing colors, historical hairstyles, people wearing hats or headcoverings and long sleeves outside during the day, no potatoes or pumpkins in pre-columbian Europe, actors with textured skin and wrinkles, minimal makeup, consulting HEMA groups and weapons scholars for all the weapons and fight scenes, a good soundtrack that includes traditional instruments?
Oh, you mean you want 100% white people. Even in crowd scenes in port cities. There's a different word for that.

What would you do if you were scrolling through recommended tumblr posts and one was from someone you don't know and it was just a picture of your dad captioned "fucking hate this guy" and it had hundreds of notes
OP turned reblogs off but as someone with a crazy wicked scar that's been called "body horror" a few times, I really wanted this on my blog
in fact I think all of these are beautiful, cool, neat, or just neutral. nothing negative about any of it. also goes for implants, I've known people with implants of all kinds be made fun of, but that shit isn't ugly or gross either, it's just neutral and or positive
i actually dont care if this makes anyone mad at me or thinks its cringe for me to care this much bc this is straight up Not Right like this should not be happening. this should not be an image we are aware of and we know about it because he is being targeted by people who are using racism and antisemitism as Gotchas and do not actually care about anything beyond how it might hurt him. it is not fucking Right.
as someone who systematically avoids celebrity scandal/stan culture and only really sees non-official HudCon stuff when algorithms trawl it up at me, and also is a biracial/ half-white poc
what i cannot get over — besides the blatant racism and absolute weirdo creep behavior of this Desperate Hunt For A Reason To Ruin A Stranger As Punishment For Being POC+successful+hot. is there truly nothing worthwhile for you to care about in your lives? like y'all are racist and hateful and also so weird, how do you have the time to be such fucking freaks. but anyway — what I cannot get over is that those are photos of a CHILD. people are digging up photos of children. explain to me in actual, non-buzzword bullshit who is being helped or saved or evangelically fucking purged by you people Digging Up Photos of Children.
i know i'm preaching to the choir of 3 gay strangers who will see this but jesus shitbrick fuckoff christ i am so— ohmygod i cannot believe y'all are making me care so much about Yet ANother CeLebriTy GoTcHa. that man probably murdered a little girl and stuck her in his trunk and it took a whole 24 hours for The Internet to get over it, so i beg your finest fucking pardon but i dont care about your punishment fetish!!!! i don't care if Chappell Roan was mean to a photographer i don't care if you think Rachel Zeggler is annoying i don't care if the talented leads who created one of the most touching queer joy stories i've watched this year have girlfriends! or boyfriends! or childhoods or lives! i am so annoyed that this is such a thing and so fucked off that i'm out here preaching about it and so fucking sad for some guy i don't know! let me go back to my murderHomos and my hockey yearning and my character analysis and my beautiful talented genius ao3 pals and my sandbox for five fucking seconds.
none of you would know the difference between Accountability and a PurityPurge if it fucked you face-to-face in missionary. talk to me when we're actually trying to protect somebody from harm. because boy am i having a hard time seeing how this is making the world a safer, more inclusive, better place.

LISTEN UP AGAIN KIDS
STOP REBLOGGING THIS FUCKING GARBAGE POST. IT IS 100% FUCKING BULLSHIT AND CAN AND MOST DEFINITELY WILL LITERALLY KILL.
DO YOU NOT SEE WARNING LABELS THAT SAY “DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING”? THEY AREN’T FUCKING AROUND. YOU CAN FUCKING BURN THEIR ESOPHAGUS BY CAUSING VOMITING, CAUSE CHOKING, DROWNING, OR MAKE IT WORSE!
AGAIN DO NOT FORCE ANYTHING DOWN ANYONE’S THROAT. THEY. CAN. DROWN.
IF SOMEONE IS LOSING CONCIOUSNESS ALL THE CHIT CHAT IN THE WORLD WILL NOT PREVENT IT AT THAT POINT THEY ARE IN SERIOUS DANGER.
“Buuut i don’t wanna take them to the hospital!!!”
WELL SUNSHINE GLAD YOU’D RATHER HAVE A DEAD FRIEND THAN A LIVING ONE BUT YOU’RE IN LUCK
CALL FUCKING POISON CONTROL. THEY ARE NOT THE COPS. THEY WILL HELP YOU.
AND IF THEY SAY GO TO THE FUCKING HOSPITAL YOU GO TO THE FUCKING HOSPITAL. NO EXCUSES. 0. NONE.
I have seen this shit cross my dash SO MANY TIMES so PLEASE fucking reblog this and prevent some well meaning idiot from accidentally killing someone they love!
Poison control may advise diluting the toxin somehow like with water or milk, otherwise do not give them something to drink and take the empty pill bottle/ blister pack with you to the hospital.
THIS!! Coming from a survivor, never force water down a person’s throat, there’s a high likelihood of aspiration. Take them to the ER immediately or call your emergency number.
Hudson deleted all his posts and replies on Threads today, and I don’t blame him at all. It’s been so toxic and terrible over there towards the entire cast and crew.
Sending all lovely, healing, positive vibes to Hudson and Connor. I hope they’re both taking care of their mental the best they can. They’ve been through SO much in such a short time.
To not only reach stardom the way they have so abruptly but to also have to deal with a truly psychotic, abusive part of their fan base so often I imagine is taking quite the toll…
I’m glad they have each other to lean on, and I’m hoping they’re able to keep and maintain their friendship despite the judgmental criticisms of keyboard warriors and disrespectful RPFers. Their unfilitered, unafraid selves and the beauty of this show brought me out of one of the darkest spaces in my life, and I’ll be forever grateful they shared that piece of themselves with us.
I hope they know there are many of us here that appreciate, respect, and are truly and genuinely inspired by them 💛
