I get Alice in wonderland syndrome, mostly in bed while falling asleep. I thought this was a normal thing everyone had until recently and didn't realize it was linked with my migraines. My daughter also has it.

I always have just a ~weird feeling~ as soon as it starts but I just learned the name for it is Jamais Vu!

Nasal congestion and insomnia are two constants for my prodrome. Netti pot and normal decongestants won’t work, ONLY afrin.

I didn’t realize till recently that the bruised feeling on my scalp is a migraine symptom … like it’s as if I have a goose egg on my head or I’ve had my hair in a tight ponytail but I haven’t & nothing is there!!

say it with me - migraines are not headaches 🥰 they're a neurological condition in the same family as epilepsy

The yawning omg. Non stop yawning and the slightest bit of head pressure change, like my head is getting squished by a headband thats too tight. Also...I get a lot of gas buildup in my gut but doesn't feel like it can um...release

i think this is a little more obviously migraine but the biggest thing for me is struggling to get my brain to connect to my mouth. like i can talk, but i jumble my words easily and its a physical struggle to move my mouth sometimes. pain usually starts a few hours later

my hands go numb, or I stumble over words, get foggy and confused. I know how bad its going to be by how bad those symptoms get. or my eye will white out.

Ms.Auntie :
Girllll I’m learning everyday 😭 I get aura migraines without pain: blurry vision, zigzag ring in my vision, weakness, 2x I’ve had numbness on my face and parts of my limbs went numb…basically I had a mimic stroke caused by a migraine docs said (similar to absent seizures) again no pain at all! Crazy!! All from a migraine 🤕

One weird symptom I’ve noticed hours before a migraine is sensory over sensitivity like my hair hurts or clothes are too restrictive. Then light is just a little too bright.

How long the reflection of light stays in my eyes eh from car windows. If it’s bugging me I know I’m going to get one window is a couple of days. Otherwise that light doesn’t get me at all.

Phantom smells are big for me. If I smell campfire for no reason I know something is coming.

The acidity in my stomach goes haywire and sometimes I’ll get diarrhea when nothing in my diet changed.

Fog, dizziness, forgetting words entirely, and craving things I usually don’t like. Then the aura sets in closer to the pain. I thought the foods were triggers for so long 🤦🏻♀️
