Think about it... my migraines are caused by stress and lack of sleep, so maybe if I got sh.i.t off my chest, I'll feel better and have less attacks.
Anyone else ever try this?

I didnt know that migraines could be caused by those, I thought they were genetic and caused by hormonal changes. I thought just plain headaches were caused by stress, but interesting to know.
Going to a "shrink" is always beneficial, granted they're a professional. They can teach you coping methods for stress, and prescribe you medication for your insomnia. I use a medicine called Midrin for my migraines, and it works amazing. I had to shop around a little to see what worked for me.

Yes, I think migraines are caused by many factors including stress. I knew a woman who was married to an emotionally abusive man. She couldn't pick her head up for days because (at the time) we didn't realize he was abusing her. He was so stealth and clever with his manipulation she thought it was HER and took it all upon herself. Then she dumped him, "found God" and was magically cured of her migraines. As soon as she got rid of the jerk and his issues, she felt better.
The moral to the story: you may never know what's causing the illness. Try everything. Especially therapy.

Yes , you might find this very helpful. Also, biofeedback techniques have been shown to be highly beneficial when used for migraines. A "shrink" could teach you this as well as relaxation techniques also proven to be helpful with headaches.

I'd see both, a regular MD, and a shrink to "get things off your chest". There are good meds out there for this.

It might help. If you suspect your migraines have a psychological aetiology, then consulting a psychiatrist or psychologist will probably help you.
Best wishes.

no. absolutely not. i've been studying internal medicine for the past 2 years and i'm pretty sure there isn't any chemical to stop it from growing.
