Out of migraine medicine because my doctor messed up my prescription. So now I’m living on caffeine and earplugs.
Sound is my number one trigger. Followed by smell, light and temperature. Wish I had less sensitive nervous system. But why would I have any good things, since it’s against universe’s rules?

@farah

If you don't mind, what do you do to turn them all down?

@ipd I can’t do anything about most of it. That’s why I take a beta-blocker as a preventative medicine. But currently out of it.

Earplugs for noise. Ice packs on head in summer I guess

@farah
I work with leaving the room,
hot bath, heavy blanket with stim edges.
I never heard about Beta Blokes for this.

Thanks

@ipd Are you talking about migraine or sensory issues? They might need separate ways to deal with them

@farah
Most evenings I'm able to get very very quiet. At a certain point, my mate gets up to do her evening things. That's when I notice everything is turned up to 11.

If I leave the room first, I head it off.
But other days I can't avoid it. No head pain, like headaches.

It's been the same all my life, (I'm old) I figured out that I"m Late High, only a couple of years ago. When I recap, It's been going my entire life. I've always thought 'this' was normal.

It explains so much!! We, collectively know now what we never knew then. It makes a BIG difference.

@farah

I noticed your name change...
Are you an apex reditor?
