So nice hearing from you and your willingness to discuss such an important topic! It's amazing what a "common" symptom irritability is when living with migraine, yet it is rarely widely discussed. As we wait for some more possible feedback from our community members, in the meantime, are you by chance active on Facebook? If so, here is an article we published on there in regards to specifically "Migraine Symptoms: Anger & Irritability" and this article generated lots of great comments & feedback from the community if you wanted to scroll through. Here is the post - https://www.facebook.com/MigraineDotCom/posts/1210967655598441?match=bWlncmFpbmUgc3ltcHRvbXMgYW5nZXIgJiBpcnJpdGFiaWxpdHksbWlncmFpbmUgc3ltcHRvbXMgYW5nZXIgaXJyaXRhYmlsaXR5LGlycml0YWJpbGl0eSxtaWdyYWluZS5jb20sc3ltcHRvbXMsbWlncmFpbmUsYW5nZXI%3D
Should you not be on Facebook, here is the original article https://migraine.com/blog/migraine-symptoms-anger-irritability/
Maybe by reviewing this article and some of the member feedback it may provide some guidance & tips on some ways to help reduce it...especially for your 9year old. I am sure this must be extremely difficult to watch some of those traits come through.
Thanks for being here & help to bring a voice and awareness towards a symptom that so many are faced with.
Warmly,
Joanna (Migraine.com Team)
