lp3 Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 I have often wondered if chs are a form of demonic possession. No I am not religious and yes I am serious. Anyone else have thoughts on this cause I know damn well tha in my case prayer does not help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bejeeber Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 To me belief in demonic possession is the stuff of Salem Witch Trials, Dark Ages etc., so nope I don't personally believe CHs are a form of demonic possession. If I did believe in it though, I would think prayerwould help, and O2, etc. wouldn't? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spiny Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 Literally? No. Figuratively? Yes. Many have referred to their CH as a demon, the beast, etc. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun brearley Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 Like my buddy bejeeber said i don't think so . If it was o2 wouldn't work triptans wouldn't work !!!! So i think you can forget about that 1 buddy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoscoPiko Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 I sure act like I'm possessed during an attack sometimes LOL..Curse words randomly flying out of my mouth, odd leg jerks etc. However, I'm fully aware of what's going on so I would have to say no. Wish I was then it would be simple, we could all go get an exorcism and call it good;) 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least when they remake the Exorcist we should be hired on as consultants/producers for the possession scenes. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jon019 Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 (edited) ...i get it...there were times when an attack/cycle seemed so malevolent, intentional, designed and implacable that the thought of the beast as "entity" was nearly overwhelming. didn't wanna go there, but it served as a convenient anger sponge. eventually learned to direct the anger toward collecting the knowledge, tools and strategies for battling "the beast".....

Love the term "anger sponge". I seriously need a stash of those!! I must admit that I have often thought of CH as some sort of cruel punishment for something I did wrong.. So I suppose the thought of possession is not far from that...Maybe our minds just want so badly to believe that somehow, someway it's something other than a neurological un-curable issue. I find that I prefer the worm in the nose theory I read on here while poking around...Who knows, maybe one day a cure will be just a shot away... 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bejeeber Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 The most haunting song ever created right there (IMO). Stones at their peak, with the cool, and just passed, Charlie Watts on drums. 1 hour ago, BoscoPiko said: CH as some sort of cruel punishment for something I did wrong.. I'll admit this is something I still cling to...speaking of demons.....as a way of justifying the existence of CH for myself, that I thoroughly deserved it for past evils committed (cruel behavior as a teenager, etc.), but while ruminating on this I also I like to add in there that I've paid the piper at this point and it's OK for the piper to now leave quietly! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaun brearley Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 Yea funny . Same here Bosco thought I'd come out if a rouge cycle but the demon has shown it ugly head again in the middle of busting .maybe it is for past evils committed when younger Bejeeber. I know i was a shit . We should question every CH sufferer , see if we were all little shits when younger 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Denial is a bit@! Too. My parents have verbalized several times the may be a new Doc when we move will have some magic treatments that will stop my CCH or make it better. I am/was shocked they really believe that even w the caliber of Docs I’ve see. With my medical background, that when I tell them there is nothing left besides radical brain surgery (my opinion of Gamma knife), and they think a new neurologist is going to “save me”! my biggest fear is being without O2 and ketamine. I dosed recently and since then I’ve been getting worse. Probably unrelated but not slap backs. It’s been too long. I’m taking a break from dosing and sticking to Vit D, ketamine and oxygen unless another CCH vet has a suggestion... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
