The Migraine Network
The migraine community for patients by patients.
Built by someone who lives it. A real community for the people who do, too.
1 in 7 people, every dinner table.
Migraine is the third most common disease in the world, yet still one of the most misunderstood, touching a billion lives across every country, every culture.
Migraine is not just a headache. It’s a neurological disease that disables, isolates, and quietly reshapes the lives of people who carry it, often without ever being seen.
Even if you don’t live with it yourself, someone sitting at your dinner table probably does. The numbers below are the size of that quiet.

Foundation: Threshold & SEEDS
Migraine isn't a switch — it's a threshold that builds and tips. In this first class, we'll cover what your migraine threshold actually is, the role it plays in why attacks happen when they do, and how the five SEEDS pillars — sleep, eat, exercise, diary, stress — work together to raise or lower it. The starting point for everything else we'll cover this year.
