I was telling someone the other day I had a migraine and couldnt attend their party. I guess they thought it was a lie. Thou all my attempts to passionately explain fell on deaf ears retrospectively and needless to say, the relationship went south ..’
Heres proof. There are different types of migraine and movement makes some worse.
They are partially one sided, and at times cyclonic over time, on the brain. Some activities might still be, minimally; possible i.e Texting.
When I was a teenager I was bed ridden unable to go to school when it was really bad. So this is a very real medical condition with various severities like mood swings and nausea.
Couple that with narcolepsy or cataplexy. Its not a very positive self esteem boosting socialising, or welcoming mood for a party; especially when meeting popular people you’ve never met before. Migraine and loud club music will just not work nor help matters. I did the right thing not attending.
And thou I dont have to explain myself more than once. Just had to explain one last time. A real friend will understand ..’
Actually, my publicist told me to drop this now but my nice side always tries to figure things out. I guess some things are just best left alone. Dont judge a book by the cover till you know the whole story.
Truth is – I’ve learned to live with migraines, adaptively, since my teens daily so well; that I almost forget about them unless they make me immobile painfully, visually, or cognitively. I remember reading for my finals in secondary school, managing and nursing migraines.
I recall an unforgettable day in my life. An excruciatingly bad migraine that I had to sing ‘What A Wonderful World‘ through. So bad, I had to refuse an encore, requested by the audience bcuz of the pain.
You would have not known a thing until now, as I covered it so well, by carefully, vocally, placing notes that won’t hurt and distress my brain too much for obvious reasons ..’
It’s very strange how different parts of our brains are capable to develop or under develop and function. Explains why some of the most disabled people are the most creative intellegent astonishing beings. #Autism #Narcolepsy
