MHAM Blog Challenge Day 4: Just Keep Swimming

How do you keep going in life when Migraine or another Headache Disorder deals you a difficult setback?

It's hard sometimes. I remember having bad migraines (particularly when I was younger) that were so bad I thought it would be easier if I could just somehow be dead - the pain wasn't worth living anymore.

But I've gotten past those feelings, mostly thanks to prescription meds and figuring out how quickly I should be taking what I need. And really, it's the meds that keep me going during those rough patches, otherwise I wouldn't even be able to step outside, much less get out of bed.

Knowing I have friends and family who care, and a community of fellow sufferers and supporters out there also is a great help, all the time.
