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.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Do painkillers not work for you?
Not OP but Not all painkillers work against migraines and something that works for one person might make it worse in another.
It's a balancing act of trying to find out what will help and not make it worse that it already is.
Will coffee help? Maybe or it'll make it worse Will pot help? Maybe or it'll make it worse Etc.
I remember I got a migraine once and started masturbating and it actually made it feel much better
Yet for others it can make it way worse: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sexual_headache
If I had that you could call it chronic pain
