Does anyone have a strong support group for Cluster Headaches? I've been trying to see if people are willing to start some type of support group. Maybe via zoom, or Skype call. I know that people that suffer from cluster headaches fall into isolation and it's hard to find other C/H patients. I would like to try and start a weekly zoom call if enough people are willing and discuss things like. Treatments Dealing with pain Depression Anxiety Loss of job Disability Dealing with family and friends Anything related to Cluster Headaches Does anyone know of a call existing already?

I've been thinking a lot about the psychological toll CH can have on someone. Even before CH suicidal thoughts always seemed to follow me wherever i go. I always had my doubts in myself. I've always had doubts i was strong enough to be able to keep going. I had trouble coming to terms with having CH and that it even existed. The pain was always a reminder that this is real. That i have this. That too many people have this. I'm still pretty new but I'm not quite as helpless as i was before i first joined I've been finding my way. I don't have much in the way of super helpful advice for anyone or even much to say that's very noteworthy as i haven't quite gotten the hang of all this yet. Still at the very least i want to say to everyone who's new to this or that is struggling in general please hang in there. Stay strong and don't give up. We have to take this all one day at a time and keep pushing forward. You are not alone. Don't doubt yourself or your resolve. You ARE strong. I see so much unity in this community and so many people helping each other out whether it be with advice straight up emotional support or both. This is an awful thing to have but its brought many of us together. That is something and whenever i feel i have no one who understands i like to read what people are up to here. For everyone out there,you are an ox...a strong,resilient,antique breaking ox.
