###Rules

Follow these, and everyone will be happy. Don't and we'll all be sad.

A more complete list of rules can be found [here](/r/migraine/about/rules).

* **Always talk with your doctor first.**
* No medical advice.
* Be respectful.
* No surveys without pre-approval.
* Cite your sources if possible.
* Tag any image that may trigger as NSFW.

If you see a post that may be violating a rule, report it and select the appropriate rule.

**Self Promotion rules**

We get a lot of blog posts and self promotion content. In response, all self promoters must follow [reddits' guidelines](http://www.reddit.com/wiki/selfpromotion) for self promotion. We reserve the right to remove content from users with insufficient community participation, excessive links/posts, or content better suited for ads. Sometimes you just need to support reddit and pay for that ad space instead!

----
The goal of this subreddit is for members/users to ask/ answer migraine-related questions in order to help one another understand the disease better. You may give your opinion but please do not give medical advice; it is a violation of the reddit terms of service to do so. Personal stories and support are welcome. Scientific proof/data is welcome but please cite the proper sources.

**Resources**

* [Migraine Log Template](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1iCSTyieFr3r1jyfMglvGydMcHE2VBEmP1fYYo9pCagc) - Automatically generates graphs and calculates averages. New features periodically added.

* [Prophylaxis, Abortive, and Procedures checklist](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1wKPUeYMUVhtBJjFpKkl4u_2BAVJc7ccZA0dzObPo7S0) - Useful for keeping track of what you've tried. Please add unlisted items to the working sheet.

**Crisis resources**

You can find a list of crisis hotlines on [this wiki](https://www.reddit.com/r/SuicideWatch/wiki/hotlines). There's also an [FAQ](https://www.reddit.com/r/SWResources/comments/1c7ntr/suicide_hotline_faqs/) about what to expect when calling.

For medical help, the emergency room is always the first choice. Most insurance offers nurse help lines as well.
