I've had a lingering migraine for over a week so yesterday I was trying to figure out why it won't go away. I've been getting plenty of sleep, not eating anything bad and continuing to exercise. Then I realised that the two books I'm reading are both ebooks. This means that even in my downtime (and while recovering from the migraine) I've been staring at a screen. I did a quick search and found these two potentially useful websites:
- Migraine Trust – this is a general fact sheet about migraine triggers but offers some information about computer use near the end
- Migraine Relief Centre – this blog has some useful tips about 'light induced migraines' and how to make screens less migraine-inducing
My course of action now is to read a paper book and limit TV watching so that my screen time goes back to a more manageable level. I think I'll also try to make one weekend day a 'no screen' day. That means writing will need to be on paper, no checking social media, no Skype and no TV.
