It is rather disheartening. That I was managing to get my migraines down to only like...a handful of times  a month. 

Which considering all the crazy the pandemic has been giving off...it's rather amazing that my migraines had decreased rather than increased.

Cus usually stressful situations can set it off.

But it seems like getting more sleep definitely had helped to decrease said headaches.

Now though, it seems like I've taken two huge steps back.

Because it feels like for the past two weeks, I've had a headache form basically every day.

And I can't tell if it's the contacts.

I can't tell if it's sleep.

I can't tell if it's just a reaction to all the smoke from the fires burning in and out of the state.

But my muscles have tensed up to the point where it's a constant ache on my left shoulder and my neck.

And like...it's usually okay first thing when I wake up...but as the day progresses...so does the appearance of the headache. 

So is it eye strain? Is my right eye once again rebelling and wanting to cut back on the power of my lens? 

Is it the smoke?

Is it just me not sleeping as restfully as I should be?

I don't know.

And it's bugging me.

I don't want to have a constantly aching head.

But I'm not quite sure what I'm doing wrong to cause it.

And like...if it is simply the smokey air that's triggering it...there's not much I can do but wait for that to blow away. 

*exhales*

It's just frustrating.
