I try to show my appreciation as my husband is helping me. Then I try to give back as much as possible

It is hard to thank family for support when I am actively suffering from a migraine. My head hurts so bad, and my mouth says things that are hurtful. Coming to them after the fact is not easy, because some of the things I said, I did not mean. Apologizing after the fact, does not work, when I continue with the same behavior. I can not say " I had a migraine" as an excuse. I am hoping my behavior will change and pray that it will. It is VERY hard to even think when my head is pulsating, and simple questions seem like an attack, which I always go on the defense.

I have lost most of my family support because of this, and am hoping that my migraines get better where this does not continue.

There is only so much I can do to repay my loved one, after being verbally abusive. I wish I never had this head pain, but being that I was told it was hereditary, helps me understand why I was verbally abused. I am doing the same thing and just wish it would stop. It is a hair trigger for me.

I wonder if any of you have done this, or am I alone.

Hello.. I hope you are doing well but reading your response. I give them once chance. Then, I shut them out. I really don't have time to explain something that it will go over there head and pretend to understand. When the migraines hit.. I don't have patience and mood turns. I know, I know am not only one, who does this..
