RE: What causes migranes?

I know that I have several triggers that cause my migraines. The first one is smells. If someone nearby is wearing a strong floral perfume or a very musky perfume, I get a migraine. The second trigger is sinus pressure. The last trigger would have to be too much stress and no caffeine in my system.

I can personally attest that stress causes migraines. I used to work in a telecommunication company and the environment was so stressful and tiring, and I used to get migraines almost every other day. I eventually quit the job, fearing that the situation with my health would escalate.

I'm not 100% sure about that but the obsessive thinking and dwelling on something overly negative could be some kind of a trigger. It's not a healthy emotional state. It may cause a headache.
