The day after the day before

When I woke up this morning I expected, due to past experience, to be in all sorts of pain, this would be due to the build up of tension throughout yesterday, so was pleasantly surprised when I just had a bad headache and not a migraine. I know it sounds strange to be glad to have a bad headache but when you are expecting a migraine believe me a bad headache is a relief. The problem I have is that one of my triggers for a migraine is tension.

It is a good sign that I didn't get as tense yesterday as I would have previously. So its been a quiet day today as I recover and get myself mentally prepared to go into Create tomorrow. Its difficult to try and relax at the moment as I have missed the last two Mondays due to insomnia and migraines but I am aware that it can become a vicious circle that if I start worrying about getting enough sleep I wont get enough, so trying to distract my mind and try and keep it calm.
