I started getting moderate headaches in 5th grade and they started to get very bad in 8th grade. By 9th grade, they were constant, only fluctuating in intensity. At anytime, I had a headache. Any time. That's gone on through this year and until this past Tuesday.
I was checked into the hospital for some intravenous treatment of a migraine medication and it broke the pain cycle in my brain or something and my headaches are gone. Sometimes I'll feel like one is coming on, but it'll be gone 5 minutes later.
It's unusual for me not to be in constant pain. It's...weird. My mom keeps telling me I'm not different, that this is the old me, before the headaches. But... when was that again?

It might take a while to get used to it I guess?
But that really sucks. Do you WANT to be in constant pain or something? =P
I guess it would be weird.

but.. isn't it good that it doesn't hurt?
wouldn't it be kind of worse if you always felt good, and then suddenly had constant pain?

I don't want to be in pain, but I realized after I made this post so much about me was because of my headaches.
I wasn't that shy...I didn't want to go out because of my headaches, it had nothing to do with new people.
I wasn't lazy, it just hurt to move.
I wasn't snotty, I just didn't want to be there because it was so loud..
I hadn't realized how much the pain had controlled my life. I never considered myself stuck up (I found out in the past year that many others did), but those other two, lazy and extremely shy, I thought that was who I was, but it wasn't. Normally people who go really deep into philosophical issues like "who am I?" and "is this real??" and "what is the meaning of life?" ...well, I usually want to kick them in the groin, but I really am wondering who I am now.

that's kind of fascinating, because, now you're going to change a lot in short time, and know it, and you can have fun deciding how. have fun see how things turn out. at least that's what I can imagine right now.

I figured there had to be some side effects of always being in pain. Now maybe you can find yourself?

I know exactly what you mean. I've had horrible pain problems with my back and only recently has it gotten better. It restricted me from lots and lots of things and made me seem very unwilling to try things. Really I know what you mean. It's good that the pain is gone but it's true it's very diffrent.
