The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.
If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.
If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

My mother suffered from migraines and her mother before her. I and two others in my family suffer from migraines. Research has shown a link to seritonin levels in the brain and migraines. Before I went on anti-depressants, I got migrains all the time. Once I started taking Celexa (elevates seritonin levels) my migraines tapered off. Mom's physician put her on a low dose of an antidepressant which has minimized the frequency of her migraines. We both still get them from time to time but not like before. The migraines I get now are usually from sleep deprivation, diet, or allergies.prayingwoman said:I have been curious about something for a long time. Perhaps some of you might be willing to answer a question I have long had. I just wonder if folks like us with bipolar get more headaches than other folks. I get several migranes a month if I am in a depressive episode. Do any of you experience that? Maybe I am jsut the odd duck!!! LOL! Huggers!
May just be who knows! I can't remember the last time I went a whole week without a headache. I have learned how to manage them mostly and know what triggers them so that helps. I pray yours feel better.youthwalk said:
