There are many different types of migraines out there.

Migraines are not very well documented, nor are they very well understood.

Many people are afflicted by this condition. For those who have never experienced it (or rarely) it may seem like it’s a little deal, or ‘just a headache’. For those afflicted, they fight this perception – in addition to actually trying to figure out what is going on with them, trying to function daily, and live healthy lives unaffected by pain. It’s an often lonely fight.

It is a big deal.
More research is needed.
More attention is needed.
More understanding too.

For those who dread seeing black little dots cloud your vision on an otherwise perfectly good day: this is for you.

And for those who are lucky to live without these – hopefully this is a glimpse into what a large population goes through, with little hope for actual resolution.

Maybe seeing it will bring a new level of understanding. 🙂
