my $50 piercing beat $290 migraine pills. Placebo Effect?

Two years ago, chronic migraines stole 1-2 days of my life weekly. Desperate, I tried a daith piercing—fully expecting it to fail. But within hours? The headache vanished. Was it the piercing’s pain distracting my brain or pure placebo magic? I don’t know. What I do know: I’ve had maybe 3 migraines since. Sure, part of me feels silly “believing” in alternative remedies, but when Big Pharma’s $290/pill solution left me broke and hopeless, I’ll take relief anywhere I can get it—even if it’s “all in my head.” (Literally!) #placebopower #alternativehealing
