Struggling with chronic migraines, hormonal chaos, and an existential crisis? SAME. At 40, my body decided to stage a full rebellion—menstrual migraines, sinus flare-ups, weight gain, inflammation—you name it. I’ve tried Botox for migraines, Topamax, birth control, natural remedies (spoiler: they flopped), and now I’m considering Mounjaro, testosterone, and even marijuana. Oh, and did I mention I’ve been living out of a suitcase since 2017? My dream life is literally sitting in a storage unit while I try to figure out my next move. Let’s talk about migraines, midlife transitions, and why people need to stop asking “What’s next?”


💬 Have a migraine remedy that actually works? DM me immediately. Otherwise, just send thoughts and prayers.

Alright besties, let’s talk about the longest, most toxic relationship of my life—migraines. These little demons have been ruining my vibe since childhood, and in the last 8 months? They’ve fully taken over my personality. We’re talking menstrual migraines, sinus migraines, tension migraines, heat-triggered migraines—basically, if there’s a migraine type, I’ve collected it like an emotional support Birkin. 👜

And don’t even get me started on hormones. My body woke up at 40 and decided to throw a peri-menopausal rager (which I was NOT invited to). Weight gain, inflammation, full-body swelling, joint pain—I am basically a human marshmallow.

At this point, I’ve tried Botox, Mounjaro, hormone therapy, marijuana (jury’s still out), and every natural remedy that girlies on Reddit swear by (spoiler: they were wrong). AND I’m still living out of a suitcase while my dream life is locked in a storage unit. So yeah, we’re spiraling today.

💬 If you also suffer from migraines, hormone hell, or the general chaos of existing in your 30s & 40s, listen NOW. And if you have a migraine cure that actually works? DM me immediately, or just send thoughts and prayers.
