I'm sorry.......I try to answer each ones message. Will try to be better at answering your text.😥

Laying in the dark isn't a bad idea tho. I'm sorry if this is dumb, but maybe hold ice or something that engages your other senses and distracts the initial pain. Drawing patterns with your hands. Again, I'm sorry I'm not familiar with this so this may not at all be helpful.

At times, noise cancelling headphones (or earbuds if I cant take the pressure of the headphones) with binaural beats at a volume level of 1 can sometimes soothe me on my hypersensitive days (its less maddening for me than the pressure vacuum of absolute quiet). Sorry in advance if it doesnt help

Maybe do something like playing with play doh or sand or something that distracts your senses in other forms like smelling essential oils or tasting a favorite dish. I would try to work on focusing on what you can touch, smell and taste since the hearing and sight is really struggle right now.

Okay, just a note for you, I know this might come off preachy or annoying, but please. Try to change the way you talk about yourself regarding the conditions you experience. Saying you have so many things ‘wrong with you’ affects how you feel about yourself and the things that are affecting you. There’s nothing wrong with you, you aren’t wrong, you aren’t any more or less flawed than everyone else :) I’ve been practicing saying, instead of ‘___ is wrong with me’ or ‘___ is a defect/disorder/issue/problem I have’, I try to say things like ‘___ is one of the struggles I have’ or ‘___ is a difficulty/challenge/struggle/thing I live with/part of what makes me who I am’ that sorta thing. Again, I’m not trying to act like I’m saying anything you haven’t heard, and I’m not trying to preach/be corrective. Just wanted to offer this as something that could be helpful, but if it isn’t that’s okay. At least you’re aware of one more person who sees you as valuable and worth trying to help, and someone who heard your story :) ALSO maybe distractions could be something hands-on, like coloring/painting/writing/crafts, or possibly video games that don’t require sound, or reading books. Hope this helps and sorry if I over explained myself

You saw a doctor for any of this ??? That would probably help . I say medical help

Everyone else who commented was so helpful like the dark room and having smells and cold and just put your thoughts elsewhere to help distract you from the pain. You all are amazing at coping skills

Hey man, talk to your neurologist. I'm sorry to tell you this, but I don't think non-pharmacotherapy is gonna be possible without medication to "convince you to jump into the deep-end" with your other forms of therapy. That's what it's like for me, and we basically have the same differences from the rest of the population, on average. So talk to a neurologist about your migraine headaches. They'll know the right path better than we will. Maybe it's not drugs, either. They can prescribe non-pharmaceutical intervention, too! Have you ever tried hypnosis? It's hard to find a psychologist nowadays who is also an experienced hypnotist, too. But hypnotism definitely helps when meditation is nigh impossible.

since it's been ~16 hours since you posted this, i assume you're feeling better. hopefully. sorry i wasn't here last night to talk to you! next time this happens, noice canceling headphones, lights off, and something to fidget with should help. if you have nothing to fidget with, snacks are a great distraction. also, warm damp wash cloth on the eyes.
