Migraines often are a sign of physical and mental tension.
Try to learn how to relax with meditation, physical activities and rest.
Avoid alcohol, tobacco, piracy.

As much as possible try to heal yourself without pharmaceuticals.
Piracy also may increase your tensions, not so jolly Roger.....

You should first find out if they are Migraine, or cluster headaches..............

When I was young, and they packed me off to school...

Well, when I was young, I was diagnosed with "relaxation migraines" . After a period of concentration on something I would get migraines, sometimes very severe. Thankfully I grew out of them and still did exceptionally in school during the times I was able to concentrate. I never got one during a period of stress, only after.

Avoiding piracy might be has hard as stopping smoking or kicking an alcohol addiction.

I hope the OP can find whatever works to control them. I know personally how bad they can be.

Hi, I have asked about zomig but it is unavailable. I was able to get a product called Tolestan which is sumatriptan 85 mg. It wasn't as effective as the rapid melt zomig I used to get in Canada. Strangely enough my headaches are rare here.

The pharmacies sell sumigram for migraines. It's fairly effective

I took the equivalent in the US as a child , Cafergot (caffeine and ergotamine) . I had really bad reactions to it that made it worse than the migraine itself.
