I wish I was faking my migraines

Published on 22 February 2023 at 19:38

I hate having never ending migraines. Why has this happened to me? What did I do to deserve this? I have tried everything to make them go away, from essential oils all the way to Botox and yet, nothing works. I am all out of ideas. I pray everyday for my migraines to go away but God has not taken them from me and I do not know why. What purpose does having chronic migraines serve? Some people might say that  I am faking it, and I wish that was true. I wish my migraines were simply a lie to use to get out of doing things but that is not the case. It's like I am being constantly stabbed in the head.
These migraines have isolated me and worn me down. It is hard or sometimes impossible to enjoy things that I like to do, like going to the movies, going to a church small group, or even playing my bass clarinet. College was harder than it should have been because of my migraines.  I have failed several courses and graduated with a 2.6 GPA. Migraines are as certain to happen in my day as being hungry is. I do not like it when people ask me how my head feels because it is always the same answer and that is that it hurts. I appreciate people being concerned about me but there is no point in asking the same question over and over again and expecting a different result. I do not know why I have migraines but I would rather have them than someone I care about having them.
