Remember my headaches?
Stress induced.
Yup, figured it out.
Finally.
Sunday I had another. That made three in less than a week.
Three debilitating days that are blocked out.
Just a blur.
From the pain.
And yes, it sounds like I am complaining again. But really I am not.
I am exulting.
Sunday I figured out the headaches were stress induced. Nice of my head to tell me I am under stress, hu? I don't think I would have known otherwise. Funny about that.
Monday morning I got up and was at the gym at 5:30 for a serious spin class. I love sweating! 6:45 was Zumba. It felt glorious.
Around lunch time, I got some very bad news. At 5:00 that bad news amplified.
Needless to say, the head pain was back, at its worst.
So, I went back to the gym. For another two and a half hours.
I came home with no pain in my head and feeling relatively amazing.
I went the next day. And the next. And the next.
My headaches have decreased significantly.
I am in love with the gym.
It is my medicine.

What a wonderful medicine! I'm actually QUITE jealous!!! I wish I lived close to a gym... Ah well. So glad you found your solution!
That is amazing! I want the gym to be my medicine. Good for you!!!
oh man, headaches are the worst. i used to get them ALL of the time. then i started to drink 3 liters of water a day and took out some things from my busy life to lessen the stress and vwallah! now i only get them when i'm pregnant in the beginning. stinks, but at least it's just then and not several times a month anymore. wish i could share your love for the gym, but i've become a pool lover and outside exerciser over the years. i used to be a gym rat and loved it back then though!
Working out is a great stress reducer.
=)
Working out is such a good stress-reliever. I hope your headaches stay far away.
