What do you guys take to help with migraines? Ibuprofen doesn't do anything for me anymore.

A lie down, and some coke (cola/soda). Dark tends to help headaches, but also if you massage the pain spots. Like the temple, the ears and the cheeks. A long bath might help too, so it relaxes the muscles and calms you down. Or find out the reason you have one, fond solutions to why you have the migraine and then the migraine itself will probably go. If you need more, google is your friend :)

Migraines tend to go away when I light an incense while listening to Tool and light some scentless candles for light in my bathroom, then I take a hot bath.

Laying in a cool dark room helps, get a damp flannel and keep it over your forehead and eyes and try to keep away from light until it settles down.

For me, I get major migraines, and I just lay with my eyes closed. I try to take a nap and try and let it pass. I drink orange juice, also, but I tend to just get my migraines from low blood sugar, or something around those lines. :P

I know this is sort of a bump, but this thread isn't too far down the list so I thought I'd contribute. When I get migraines, I have to sleep in a dark, cool place to calm myself down and let my eyes and ears rest (they're usually the most affected part when I get migraines). I've also heard Excedrin Migraine works wonders, but I've never tried it.

I very much agree with this but obviously can't promote it due to its legality issues.

I personally will either use a cannabis product or an opiate painkiller (codeine / solpadeine) as most basic OTC analgesics do sod all for me.

Sleep in a dark room helps as well ofc.
