She hides away in her temple of textures A ritual to ease her sensory pressures When isolation is her only protection Darkness wraps her up with much-needed #affection To pass the time, she prays for a cure to this inherited curse #Vss365 #FoxProse #HemiplegicMigraineAwareness #MigraineChat

So much to look forward to. 🤦 #HappyNewYear 🥳 This will be my 4th year tracking my migraines. Tracking each month helps identify my peak days — when it’s safe to socialise & exercise without exacerbating & prolonging symptoms. #MigraineChat #MigraineTracker #ChronicMigraine #HemiplegicMigraine

Does anyone else get Insomnia as a warning sign or pre-migraine symptom the night before their chronic migraine is due? #MigraineChat #MigraineAwareness #ChronicHemiplegicMigraine

Learning to pause, I’ll ease Hemi’s strain With patience and discipline, I will prevail Approaching my #resolutions like a Rubik’s cube One small step at a time ‘Til the climb’s complete #Vss365

Mind usually sharp Now blunt under Hemi’s grind Words betray, tumble out A jumble spree of god knows what A circus clown with a cracked crown #Prompt cruel jests From those always performing at their best #Vss365 #MigraineAwareness

For many, lavender’s poised #decorum Graces the air with a calming scent Its soothing charm detoxes their stress Yet, within Jayne’s mind, a storm stirs Thoughts muddle, speech slurs Pain pinches the bridge of the nose A trigger, no less, with each breath in, Hemi’s chaos grows #Vss365 🎨Pixabay
