Putting Our Heads Together

2010 Migraine Poetry Contest Accepting Entries

You're invited to enter the 2010 Putting Our Heads Together Poetry Contest!

Since 2001, I've been holding annual contests for poetry about Migraines and headaches. This year's contest has just been launched, and entries are being accepted now. Writing poetry is a great way to convey how Migraine disease and headaches impact your life, a great creative outlet, and an expressive way to communicate with people who don't have Migraines or headaches and have no idea how you feel.

Each entrant may enter up to three poems. Entries will close on March 31, 2010, and the winners will be posted on MyMigraineConnection.com in April in observance of National Poetry month.

To keep up with the poems submitted this year, CLICK HERE.

For the rules and entry form, please CLICK HERE.

Even if you've never written a poem before, give it a try! One year, our first place winner had never written a poem before.

I'll be watching for your entries!

Live well,
 

Dr. Hyman on Migraines - Too Narrow a View

On the Huffington Post yesterday, I found an article, How To Eliminate Migraines and Headaches In Less Than A Week. Anyone who has followed my work already knows what my response was likely to be. Keeping my language G-rated, my first thoughts were along the lines of... Nonsense!... No Way!... What utter garbage!

You really need to read this article for yourself to get the full impact. I posted a link to it on my Facebook page yesterday and on MyMigraineConnection so people can take a look and comment if they want.

It seems that the article did spur quite a bit of conversation in its comments. When you have a few minutes, why not take a look for yourself? And, while you're there, consider posting a comment.

Hope you're safe and warm!

Live well,
