Close My Eyes

I just want to close my eyes
Turn off the lights and let me be
No, no, don't get me ice
Just turn off the lights please baby?


Pulled the covers up
Just need a few hours nap
Close my eyes and curl up
End the pain in a snap

If you ever had migraine before you might understand the context of this poem.

It's not easy dealing with migraine. I've had it to the point of feeling like I'm going to throw up.

What is Migraine?

A migraine is a primary headache disorder characterized by recurrent headaches that are moderate to severe.[1] Typically, the headaches affect one half of the head, are pulsating in nature, and last from two to 72 hours.

Pretty spot on. The worst I had lasted for more than 12 hours but less than 24 hours. It just comes suddenly and bam. Thus the poem.

Dark room

Nope, not for developing films.

I need a very dark room. Make it a dark and quiet room so I can close my eyes. Focus on breathing and finally take a quick nap.

It's the best way to get rid of my migraine. I'm blessed to have a husband who takes over the household when mama is down.

Fasting

For me, not eating anything but drinking fluids while having migraine works.

Some might recover well if they have something on their tummy. But in my case, my stomach can't handle anything. I try to eat a little every now and then but no full meals for me.

Essential Oil?

Will anyone help me find a working remedy with essential oil?

Thanks,
