Women more so then men seem to have these moments in their life where they slowly begin to transform from easy going natured to uptight, moody and someone barely recognizable. This change in personality could be the result of several complicated factors (some of which we will not name) such as a migraine headache. Migraine headaches have a way of affecting one’s mood and disrupt one’s normal characteristic traits. Millions of men and women suffer from migraine headaches each year and forces them to hide away until the migraine ordeal is over.
It’s Complicated
Migraine headaches are more complex than a typical headache hence why they have such an effect on one’s mood. Migraines are actually considered to be a neurological condition that literally creates a physiological change in ones body thus giving more understanding to the Jekyll and Hyde switch. Blood vessels in the brain enlarge releasing harmful chemicals into the brain to attack the brains arteries. Once the blood vessels begin to enlarge, the poor victim is sent on a journey from painful to increasingly painful. Once the painful symptoms have begun to cause chaos, the duration of the painful chaos could last up to three days.
Statistics show that women tend to suffer more frequently than men do with migraine headaches; research has shown that the reason women may suffer more so than men with the frequencies of migraine headaches may have to do with a women’s menstrual cycle. During a woman’s monthly cycle, her hormone levels can fluctuate drastically causing the onset of a migraine headache and the sudden personality change. The symptoms of a migraine can leave an individual seeking solace and wanting nothing more than to bang their head up against a wall until the pain subsides.
Symptoms
Symptoms associated with migraine headaches worsen as the brains blood vessels enlarge causing mild head pain at the start and excruciating head pain near the end that could lead to vomiting, diarrhea, cognitive confusion and or constipation. As you could probably imagine, suffering with symptoms such the ones mentioned could give one reason to struggle with being cordial. Migraine treatment is available so speaking with a medical professional may prove to be beneficial in lessening the number of appearances of Mr. Hyde.
