Do this when migraines start 🤕

The first 20 minutes of a migraine

determine how bad the next 12 hours get.

Most people wait until it peaks.

By then — it's too late. 🔴

Here's what actually works

when you catch it early:

🧊 Get to darkness immediately

❄️ Cold compress at the base of your skull

— not your forehead

💧 500ml of water in the first 20 minutes

💊 Medication when prescribed —

not when the pain peaks

Triptans work by stopping the cascade

before it locks in.

Every minute you wait,

your trigeminal nerve gets

harder to calm down.

You have a window.

Use it. 🧠

Save this for your next one 📌

and send it to someone who

always waits too long. 💜

How I treat my migraines
1. Aimovig -The main thing I do for my chronic migraines is a monthly injection called aimovig. This is a preventative medication. It’s an automatic subcutaneous injection that I give myself in my thigh (think of how you’d use an epi pen). I’ve been really happy with how effective this med is.
