What are your sensory triggers for migraines?

What are some of your sensory triggers for migraines? These are mine Seeing: bright lights and the sun, I hate summer for this Hearing: loud noises, I love social gatherings but eventually they get to me and give me a headache Tasting: when i accidentally eat spoiled food…even if it’s just a bite and I spit it out it throws my whole body off Smelling: floral perfume ALWAYS makes me nauseous Touching: nothing for this one rly

Sight: Bright lights or quickly moving things like TV etc Hearing: I can’t hear well so everything is muffled but certain music as well as high pitch sounds and bass sounds are the worst Taste: sour things and anything chewy Smell: floral scents and spoiled food Touch: hmm things give me the ick but not migraines

High pitched noises and that smells too strongly and bright lights. I can be around Ali of them for small amounts If time times but if it’s more than like 10 minutes I’m gonna get a migraine and us Not going to go away.

Bright lights both inside and outside, I hate summer too, Movies at the movie theater, too bright and loud. And noises that just hit a wrong note. Especially high pitched Foods that smell weird. When I have migraine the smell of cooked fish and baked potatoes will make me 🤢🤮. Touch, anything that touches my head or neck or body. I also have lupus ELS and fibromyalgia.
