Headaches and Autism

JustmeandOURautism

So I have suffered with migraines since I was 12…. They are very closely linked with my time of the month… usually the days leading to my period inhave blurred vision which is my warning sign to take tablets before a full blown migraine comes on.

but I have these weird cluster headaches…. They are not migraines… they are completely different, i feel like my head is in a vice but since looking into the fact an most likely autistic I realise they headaches are caused by the intense stress of life at times…. Has anyone else had this?? Like headaches are directly linked to my autism

  • I get headaches. Often from eye strain, or light sensitivity, or being over tiered, or if I spike my blood sugar to high, or it drops too low

    I have found glasses that change into sunglasses automatically help, also regulating my diet to be healthy with much more vegetables has maintained a healthy blood sugar level, I take breaks when I work on my laptop, and I go outside first thing in the morning to trigger my body clock so I should sleep better the following night time

    Good luck, hope you feel better
