Title: Does music or a certain song help you get through Post by iukid on Sep 17th, 2002, 12:20am Sometimes when im getting really discouraged about life and cluster headaches I listen to the creed song weathered and it makes me feel better. It think that song describes alll of us. You should listen to it. Ya I can already guess some of your responses saying that a song won't mean shit with cluster headaches but it can make me feel better. |

Title: Re: Does music or a certain song help you get thro Post by jonny on Sep 17th, 2002, 12:28am Excellent song, Kid!! Most times I crank up the loudest metal, helps keep me pacing and keeps my anger focused. With surround sound it pisses off the people who live near me........LOL Fuck'em feed'em beans is what I say ;D .......................jonny |

Title: Re: Does music or a certain song help you get thro Post by Charlie on Sep 17th, 2002, 12:47am No: I need absolute silence...no sound other than the refrigerator, darkness and pretty cool. Sound killed me. Of course I rarely listen to music anyway. I treasure silence most of the time. There are many epileptics that have extraordinary hearing and I'm one of them. I've gotten into this with CHers and there are many here who have very acute hearing as well. Charlie |

Title: Re: Does music or a certain song help you get thro Post by Jim R on Sep 17th, 2002, 3:37am Like you Jonny, light does not bother me at all and it really fucks up the docs and nurses at an ER when I tell them I don't care if they leave the lights on when the drugs are kicking in - they treat me like a meegrainer! Music I can take or leave - certainly doesn't bother me and doesn't help either, but if I want to distract at all, I might put some Zeppelin III on or something - probably wouldn't choose a Whole Lotta Love! LOL! Creed's good too - Weathered is a good CD IMHO. - Jim R |

Title: Re: Does music or a certain song help you get thro Post by catlind on Sep 17th, 2002, 8:03am Depending on the pain level, I either crank the music to distract me, especially if I'm driving, and at other times, with kip 9-10's I've screamed blue murder for the cat walking across the carpet. Light doesn't bother me unless it's flashing lights, the runway lights bother me and oncoming headlights at night, but not just plain old light. Cat |

Title: Re: Does music or a certain song help you get thro Post by echo on Sep 17th, 2002, 10:36am Creed is good. When getting nailed I like Skynard's "I keep blowing down the road", Petty's "Living on a dream", or Alice Coopers "Finale". I know, I'm old and wierd -- but damn I'm handsome! ::) Lights don't bother me -- except for oncoming headlights. Amazing how the CH bastard mutates himself isn't it. |

Title: Re: Does music or a certain song help you get thro Post by Drk^Angel on Sep 17th, 2002, 11:17am Can't stand the light, but I crank the music.

Title: Re: Does music or a certain song help you get thro Post by Cin on Sep 17th, 2002, 12:53pm Hi ya Kid, When I get hit, I can't stand even someone talking, or light. I sit with the 02, eyes shut and moving my hands and legs non stop. Take care, Cin |

Title: Re: Does music or a certain song help you get thro Post by Melissa on Sep 17th, 2002, 3:21pm When I'm getting hit, I need the lights in the house turned on, but only the tube ones. For some reason, they help. I put on either Van Halen (with Sammy Hagar), Metallica or AC/DC. Something about the chainsaw guitars and hard drumming that appeals to me.... :)Mel |

Title: Re: Does music or a certain song help you get thro Post by pjbgravely on Sep 17th, 2002, 3:53pm Back to the subject yes I have a special song which I posted the lyrics too a while back. Catlind had one too but it got lost in the crash. When evrything comes chrashing down it's good to listen to a favoriate song. Creed is pretty good but no one seems to understand the lyrics. A lot of peaple would freak if they found out they are Christian. I found a better mellow band call P.O.D. |

Title: Re: Does music or a certain song help you get thro Post by dentedgirl on Sep 17th, 2002, 5:11pm Hello people. I used to put my speakers facing each other and my head right in the middle, crank up the metal and flopp around like a fish. Not too much of that anymore. Light has never seemed to bother me, loud noises either. P.S. Creed is NOT a christian band. The singer/songwriter for the band, Scott Stapp, was raised in a very strict, christian home. ALOT of his songs are about the hypocrisy and irony of religion. The songs may have some religious overtones, but they are not christian. |

Title: Re: Does music or a certain song help you get thro Post by dentedgirl on Sep 17th, 2002, 5:36pm In America By Creed Only in America we're slaves to be free Only in America we kill the unborn to make ends meet Only in America Sexuality is democracy Only in America we stamp our god "In God We Trust" What is right or wrong I don't know who to believe in My soul sings a different song In America Church bells ringing Pass the plate around The choir is singing As their leaders fall to the ground Please mister prophet man Tell me which way to go I gave my last dollar Can I still come to your show What is right or wrong My soul sings a different song In America I am right and you are wrong No one's right and no one's wrong In America |

Title: Re: Does music or a certain song help you get thro Post by pjbgravely on Sep 17th, 2002, 6:07pm My Own Prison A court is in session, a verdict is in No appeal on the docket today Just my own sin The walls are cold and pale The cage made of steel Screams fill the room Alone I drop and kneel Silence now the sound My breath the only motion around Demons cluttering around My face showing no emotion Shackled by my sentence Expecting no return Here there is no penance My skin begins to burn So I held my head up high Hiding hate that burns inside Which only fuels their selfish pride We're all held captive Out from the sun A sun that shines on only some We the meek are all in one I hear a thunder in the distance See a vision of a cross I feel the pain that was given On that sad day of loss A lion roars in the darkness Only he holds the key A light to free me from my burden And grant me life eternally Should have been dead On a Sunday morning Banging my head No time for mourning Ain't got no time So I held my head up high Hiding hate that burns inside Which only fuels their selfish pride We're all held captive Out from the sun A sun that shines on only some We the meek are all in one I cry out to God Seeking only his decision Gabriel stands and confirms I've created my own prison Written by Tremonti/Stapp - Published by Tremonti/Stapp Music (Adm. by Dwight Frye Music, Inc.) / Dwight Frye Music, Inc.

Title: Re: Does music or a certain song help you get thro Post by iukid on Sep 17th, 2002, 7:12pm WEATHERED Know this this describ us or what! I lie awake on a long, dark night I can't seem to tame my mind Slings and arrows are killing me inside Maybe I can't accept the life that's mine No I can't accept the life that's mine Simple living is my desperate cry Been trading live with indifference yeah it suits me just fine I try to hold on but I'm calloused to the bone Maybe that's why I fell alone Maybe that's why I feel alone Me..I'm rusted and weathered Barely holding together I'm covered with skin that peels and it just won't heal The sun shines and I can't avoid the light I think I'm holding on to life too tight Ashes to ashes and dust to dust Sometimes I feel like giving up Sometimes I feel like giving up Me...I'm rusted and weathered Barely holding together I'm covered with skin that peels and it just won't heal The day reminds me of you The night hides your truth The earth is a voice Speaking to you Take all this pride And leave it behind Because one day it ends One day we die Believe what you will That is your right But I choose to fight So I choose to fight To fight |

Title: Re: Does music or a certain song help you get thro Post by pjbgravely on Sep 17th, 2002, 8:46pm Weathered is a good song. I haven't heard a creed album that had a radio hit. The song sounds llike something I just read, the book of Job from the bible. I think creed has some of the best lyrics, They are almost as good as Kings X before "ear candy" who by the way are also Christian. |

Title: Re: Does music or a certain song help you get thro Post by catlind on Sep 18th, 2002, 6:26am When I'm getting hit I'll listen to everything from Mozart, Eine Kleine Nachtmusik CRANKED to Train, Drops of Jupiter, Nickelback, How you remind me, Manic Street Preachers, to Bach for Book lovers. It all depends on my frame of mind, if I'm in the car or how bad the pain is. Or, complete silence...to the extreme that a cat walking on the carpet is enough to make me want to kill. Cat |

Title: Re: Does music or a certain song help you get thro Post by Night_Owl on Sep 18th, 2002, 10:19pm Love Creed. Have all of their stuff. I also love the Goo Goo Dolls. And Incubus. There is a really good song by then called "The Warmth". The Warmth I'd like to close my eyes and go numb but there's a cold wind coming from the top of the highest high-rise today. It's not a breeze 'cause it blows hard Yes and it wants me to discard the humanity I know, watch the warmth blow away. Do you think I should adhere to that pressing new frontier? and leave in my wake a trail of fear(?) Or should I hold my head up high and throw a wrench in spokes by leaving the air behind me clear? Don't let the world bring you down Not everyone here is that fucked up and cold. Remember why you came and while you're alive experience the warmth before you grow old. |

Title: Re: Does music or a certain song help you get thro Post by LTBulllitt on Sep 19th, 2002, 1:59am During an attack I turn on the CD player instantly. I have the CDs set up special for them. I have a CH playlist that is mostly death metal and I play it extremly loud. My reasons for this are b/c any jarring noise that hits me fires the pain to the extreme. A car outside, a voice, anything. So by using music I control I in a sense block out any possible noise from hitting me. It doesn't really sound like it makes sense and it may not for most people. I think it is b/c I have been doing it since the begginning. The reason for death metal, bands like Cannibal Corpse ect. is b/c it is very boring, the volume rarely will change. It's a very dull drowning noise I need. As opposed to say classical music would kill me with its cresendos. My other reason is that it gives me a sense of time and b/c I cannot see at all to look at a clock I need to know time is moving and at least be able to guess "ho much longer???" |

After slammy chimed in I needed to check things out. At first he was right, but when I checked it out several times he was wrong. ;D I may have figured out how this thing works. ;) |
