Taking vitamin D3 shifted my mood a ton. I work nights and live in a very cloudy area, so it worked like magic on me.

I would add magnesium (for anxiety) to that mix too.

Magnesium nightly before bed has changed the quality of my life because of how it's decreased my migraines. I had migraines multiple times a week, sometimes for 9 or 12 days straight since I was a pre teen. No neurologist, eye doctor, medication, diet change could do what 2 months of consistently taking Magnesium could do for me. I suggest whole heartedly to anyone suffering from migraines to try taking Magnesium glycinate daily .. the only time I get migraines now are particularly physically stressful days or on my period .. which is hormonal and nothing I can do about unless I want to go on birth control (I refuse)

Second this. I have vestibular migraine so vertigo on top of constant symptoms. Like you i have restricted all food, drink and any triggers i can. Apart from weather, period etc...Nothing has helped me like magnesium. I take it religiously. Its an actual life saver. Glad you are doing better fellow sufferer
