My Triggers

• Exposure to extreme heat and sunlight due to light sensitivity. Can avoid it by wearing baseball caps/hats and sunglasses over my regular eyeglasses (which are already transition—but not enough for me, sadly).

• Apple cider vinegar. This didn't use to be a trigger to me before I got migraines when I was 17, but ever since one horrible migraine with aura in the evening with no sunlight in sight, I've been avoiding this. I have to use water with my bentonite clay mask now.

  1. Hi ,

    Thank you for sharing your triggers with us. As you've found out, triggers can change over time and some may be stronger than others.

    I did want to let you know you're not alone in this - we're here for you!
