Good Afternoon - i need some advice or at least some validation. Sorry, my typing is off. HM attack

I am feel like my migraines are making me crazy or rather i'm at point where i feel like i have a family member actively trying to gaslight me and/or denies my migraine.

I've had a past history with my attacks and bad boyfriend especially on that called me a "genetic reject." My older brother who is an adult pretty much reinforced that idea and has consistently claimed that i am making these headaches up for attention and "drama.." In my mind, what 6 year old makes up HM and wtf would would i make up attention like this.

I pretty much has a breakdown over my headache yesterday while my big brother was out of the room. I was beating myself up and upset and them my big brother inserts himself into my frustration screaming at me. How it's ALL my fault. I asked him to please stop yelling, that he didn't really understand what was going on. It then turned into a pitty part for my upset brother. He was yelling at me because i was in pain, i was hurting and yelling and frustrated. It was my fault i was emotional and that this entire situation was my fault. I asked him to please stop yelling and leave me a lone while i get read to go upstairs to bed. He kept screaming. He finished my conversations for me with another family member (which i asked him not to do). He screamed at me about that to. I finally said that this was abusive behavior - i'm in pain and i asked you to leave me for 5 - 10 minutes. He skept yelling. My other family member was yelling to back off.

I've spent the last 16 hours or so mostly alseep. My other family member lost their wallet so i've been trying to find it despite not being able to see or walk or well feel my right hand very well. I am more and more feel like i'm crazy and that there's something bad or wrong i've done.

I know i'm not making up my HM but right now it kind of wish i was. I just tired of being the bad guy and tired of being yelled at and/or abused because my migraines are apparently all my fault.

I just need a hug. Any advice on dealing with a family members that no only denies your Hemiplegic Migraines but goes out of their way to make it worse?

Good Afternoon,

I hope everyone is doing okay today!

I'm going to be working on some updates/rewording etc. of some stuff on here moving forward. I will be updating the rules (nothing shocking) to a bit clearer for myself and the group.

Please be aware that Lazy Content Posting, Reposts, and Topic Focus are up (and changed). I am also adding NO CONTENT farming. Please review.

If you need me, please PM me or respond to one of the Mod Posts at the top of the page.

Thanks,

Hey Everyone -

After seeing overwhelming support, we will not longer allow reposts from other subreddits. If you don't know what that is no worries. Please copy and paste the content and create a post directly into the subreddit. This is to help reduce spam and "lazy" content.

I am also asking people NOT to post LAZY CONTENT. Please no one-line "How are you doing?" posts. Please elaborate with an update on yourself. I'm less concerned about this in responses but please try to thoughtful. Please don't just post a website and go "This will help," etc. This goes along with Karma farming aka. spamming or overposting on this site. No one has done it, so nothing to worry about but be wary.

Finally, please make sure all content relates back to HM specifically; do NOT be vague. Do not just post a link and say this might help with HM. You need more information and need to share your personal experience ie. why is this relevant.

Thanks,

Mod

I have removed at least 20 reposted posts this week alone. Some from the subreddit r/migraine and some from other completely irrelevant subreddits.

I have read every single one of these posts. Almost none have anything to do with HM and most are that are not are looking for karma in the form of medical advice solicitation (i looked at their posts) I think we need a no-repost rule. Just copy and paste text and create a new post.

Question for the Group - should we continue to allow reposted posts on this subreddit? Should i ban these redditors outright?

I'd love your thoughts!

Thanks

I am compiling a list of the MUST-SEE PHILADELPHIA SPORTS EPISODES for a Philadelphia friend who doesn't watch the show.

What suggestions do you have for a Philly Sports fan as must-see?
