It's that time of year again where we ask you to don your best pair of Ray-Bans and pose for #shadesformigraine.
This campaign aims to raise awareness of the true burden of migraine, the myriad symptoms and the fact that it is NOT just a bad headache!
Send your photos to info@migraine.ie or DM us with them and with your permission we may post them after the 21st to show your participation.
If you're posting yourself, feel free to tag us and please use the hashtag#shadesformigraine hashtag.
I know I said I wasn’t going to 'show my face' here again for a while, but I forgot about the initiative that is always run on the 21st of June by migraine advocates around the world. They pick this date because it is the summer solstice; the longest, sunniest, day of the year - and therefore, also the most potentially triggering for people living with light-sensitivity related to migraine.
