+I'm trying to catch up on my comments and on my f-list in general. So if your inbox gets filled with things. Sorry. Also, we'll see how far I get before I get distracted/unable to write complete sentences. (I woke up far too early this morning. FAR TOO EARLY. And then the people across the street decided to make a whole lot of noise doing ( Read more... )

rewatch, sometimes i write things, scream like the girl i am, migrane from hell, fandom: ats, sleep? who needs sleep?, something shiny!, sorry about that, spamming my f-list

I've not really tried it but cinnamon candles (like the yankee candle cinnamon stick) are supposed to be a method for migraines and headaches. You could always get a sampler to try it, or some tealights?

Like any cinnamon candles or specific like home remedy candles? I'm just curious. Because well, I'd know where to find the one but not the other, lol. And also, um, sorry if this makes me sound like an idiot but what are tealights?

Thank you for the suggestions. I really appreciate it.

Any cinnamon should do the trick. A tea light is a self contained really shallow candle, you normally get them in sets or bags. Yankee sell them in 12's.

Yay! And I'm actually quite fond of cinnamon, so it all works out in general. :D

Okay, after I left the comment, I thought that's what they might be, but I wasn't sure. I'm apparently not up on my candle terminology, even just the basics, LOL.

Thank you so much for this. I really do appreciate it.

have you tried putting a few drops of Eucalyptus oil into hot water and having the fumes swirl around the room while you sleep?

not eating dark chocolate is also good - well, not a lot of it

ummm.....an ice pack on your head where the headache is the worst....

those are the ones that I remember at the top of my head...apart from Excedrin Migraine and British migraine pills :D

Okay, so I may be kinds of an idiot, but how would you do that? Would you like need a humidifier or something? Or do you just have a mug of hot water with some drops in it? (Again, feel free to shake your head at me and say how has she survived this long, lol.)

Well, I don't actually like dark chocolate, so this isn't a problem for me. I do have a bit of a kit-kat addiction that has milk chocolate so if that has a similar effect, I might have to kick it.

I usually use a heating pad and that helps, but maybe I'll try an ice pack instead sometimes.

Thanks for the advice and ideas, I really do appreciate it. Migraines suck, as I'm sure you know. :D *hugs*

I'm just about to go to sleep, so I'll need to come back here tomorrow to talk about other things, but -- I want to start waching Salem too! If I get to it over the next few days, I promise to let you know how much ick there is!

Yay someone other than me that wants to watch it! I swear I saw this hype about it on tv/internet sites but nothing from anyone about actually watching the show. So I'm left with no idea what I'm getting into But thank you, I would really appreciate it, and hopefully you like it (and its not to icky so I can watch it to) and we can have another show in common. :D
