This is quite relatable. I have fewer and shorter migraines these days, but as soon as it lasts more than a day or two it impacts me so much harder because my mind goes back to a few years ago when I averaged 14 migraine days a month. When I do notice I’m spiraling and have the capacity to listen to my pain in a more neutral way, I generally realize it’s not as bad as I make it. It lasts a few minutes and then I spiral again but it’s a start. 😅
