A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

I suffered from middle school till my 30s. I started getting Botox treatment for migraines along with taking an emgality shot that I do myself monthly and my migraines that would end me up in the hospital almost multiple times a month started to slowly become a distant thing. Now maybe twice a year I'll end up in the hospital. I use relpax if I feel one starting to come on and that also works well to stop it.

There's hope and help out there but it's a pain in the ass road. The Botox injections hurt like a bitch but it's only every 3 months. I get through it by squeezing my hands together while my butcher..I mean.... neurologist administers the shots. It's a lot of shots in a short amount of time.

Had to read the first sentence a few times to make sure you weren't suffering from the disease "middle school"
