RE: How knitting and crochet helps to cope with pain and depression
Ugh migraines are no fun at all. I am so sorry to hear you have been dealing with them lately and feeling all this pain. Great health benefits of knitting/crocheting you have shared. I definitely agree with them and have experienced them for myself.
I’m not sure if you have ever used essential oils but when I have horrible headaches I diffuse peppermint and lavender which helps relieve the tention. Sending love and hopes of fast healing your way. Wishing those migraines will stay far away. ❤️❤️❤️
I also tried out essential oils, but the strong smell of peppermint is too much when I have an attack. Lavender is ok, but does not really help - sadly... I have tried so many alternative therapies, but the migraines are completely unfazed. This is one of the reasons I am currently trying more to manage the pain and the time between the attacks, then the attacks themselves.
I would be so happy if your good wishes could reach me, I hope they fly over the ocean! Thank you so much for your compassionate answer 💕💕
Oh no! I can see how peppermint could be too strong and the lavender not strong enough. 🙁
Well I’m glad you are finding ways to manage the pain and get through them. I hope my wishes fly over the ocean as well. 💕
