inknpink Castle Rock, CO 30, joined Feb. 2015	Ha! Not really A lot of you have been in my position, kid(s), work, school, home etc. For about 3 weeks I've been getting headaches, some turn to migraines. I went to the Dr. and he said its probable my eyes or stress, but he did a blood workup and I'm getting my eyes checked. He told me to look for ways to reduce stress, really? My diet is good, I only sleep about 6 hours a night, there seriously isn't enough hours in the day. Down time or joining a gym isn't an option, no time. Suggestions on stress reducing? I don't see cutting back on anything as an option. Thanks guys! Meet singles at DateHookup.dating, we're 100% free! Join now!

Sometimes you can get caught up in the hustle of life. You need you downtime. Plus you won't need to think of the kids need. Even for the next day. It's already done.

bumblebee7 Fort Payne, AL 60, joined Apr. 2011	For me....I simply cut down to the bare necessities and simplify my life as much as possible....but still have fun. but, if you can't do that. I think its part re adjusting your frame of mind maybe. But here's the thing, you can't see cutting back as an option....however look at what all this is starting to do to you. And I'm assuming right now, you don't have a current close by man either. Seems to me, you wouldn't have time for one in reality. So, when your young, you think I have to do all these things, and keep on top of it all, for my future...etc. When you get older, you realize how precious life is, and don't take it for granted it will always be there, especially the way you might want it to be....your thankful all your limbs work, your health is in general good and your mind works well, and hopefully you still have your sanity in check. Because you have seen where this is not the case with more now, the older you got and got to see more, and tend to see what's really important in life and how that differs from when you were younger. In that...can you really afford not to cut back some??? I think at a minimum...you need to set a day, where that day is free of these things, and you relax and not worry about all of this and just enjoy that special day for yourself. and kids are not pets, they need to learn responsibilities and doing for others, who do for them. Let them do a few things around the house to take the load off you. Its good for them as in character in the long run.

bumblebee7 Fort Payne, AL 60, joined Apr. 2011	There is one thing also. Regular doctors don't know it all and sometimes shun other forms of making patents better. Sometimes migraines are related to the Axis at the top of neck....spine wise. If its just slightly out of place, it can cause headaches that are real severe. a good chiro should be able to line it up.

ohdannyboy59 Arlington, TX 56, joined Sep. 2012	Ever done yoga, Ink? I know you said you didn't have time for a gym, but after the kids go to bed maybe? Pop in a DVD and do 30 minutes or whatever you can. I've never done it. But I've known tons of people who swear by it. Stress used to jack with my sleep big time. At least that's what my doctor blamed it on. I fought the urge for a while but finally took his advice and took ambien (or the generic, actually) for a while, and it helped me sleep through the night.

I bet if you look at your day, time spent on whatever..there are blocks of 15-30 minutes that you could devote to some kind of exercise. even if it's 15 mins of quiet deep breathing while on the comode. "feeling" like you can not make time for your own health is stressful in itself. The choice is yours...don't make your kids have to deal with the results of you not making that choice. ie: tired, bad mood/grouchy/short tempered, sick...etc [Edited 8/14/2015 9:43:40 AM ]

playingindirt Eugene, OR 59, joined Mar. 2014	I had them too. I didn't get them all the time but my migraines were cluster migraines. Id get them for weeks every day so bad that the only thing that would stop them was to knock me out completely with demerol. then you can't do anything. light and sound even a bird singing sent severe pain through my head. It's horrible. If you don't slow down somewhere in your life the stress won't go away until you're down for the count. make more time for yourself to relax. I know it's hard to do that when you have a busy life and when you have kids but you have to do it. and let the kids know you need it too. kids are actually pretty cool about helping.

I was thinking I had a brain tumor because nothing touched it. I went to the doctor without mentioning the brain tumor! haha He also blamed stress. Cut back he said. haha Anyway it turned out to be allergies. I never had any problems with allergies before this. I took allergy medication (over the counter) and it dulled it to the point I could function. Finally it worked all together. It's worth a try if you've tried everything else. And I do swear by yoga.

That's how you come off in general. Dixie's right too though. Sometimes your body will feel the stress but you won't notice it. My guess is it's something to do with the way you're sleeping.
