Trying to describe a migraine attack while it's happening

Hi, friends! I decided to record myself in the beginning part of a recent migraine attack. It's not the most glamorous depiction of myself I've ever seen, but it is a pretty accurate look at how my migraines often manifest before major pain sets in.

Can you identify with any of what I describe? Please share your stories in the comments!
