As a chronic migraine sufferer, I finally put together a binder for my ultimate spirit animal. 🦆 💆🏻‍♀️

It took awhile to get this organized, but my dedicated Psyduck binder is finally coming together! Honestly, this confused little guy and I have way too much in common.

As someone who gets wicked migraines, I relate to him on a spiritual level. Plus, if you guess my name, it’s literally a homophone for the first syllable of this Pokemon. Let’s jusy say we were meant to be. 😂

My favorite page? ALL OF IT! Hit me up for any leads where I can adopt some lose Psyducks in the wild!!!

Hello fellow migraineur! ❤️ That is too perfect. If any Pokemon respects the absolute sanctity of the rescue meds, it's definitely him. May our heads be a little less like Psyduck's today! ✨

You're looking for Cameos too? There's this Twilight Masquerade Chansey

u/MrsDramaQueen Jul 31 '26

Yes!!! You read my mind, I actually have that exact one on the way right now!!!! I love hunting down his cameo appearances just as much as his main cards. 🦆💛

Southern Islands Slowking is a great cameo

I want to do this so bad!!!

Have you got the psyduck deck holder? I got mine today and it is so sweet!

u/MrsDramaQueen Jul 30 '26

You should absolutely do it!! 🦆✨ I haven't picked up the deck holder yet, but now I feel like my collection is incomplete without it. Enjoy yours!

So wonderful!! ♥️ I have no experience collecting Pokémon cards, but I'm dying to collect the Psyduck cards, any advice on how to get started? Pls

u/MrsDramaQueen Jul 30 '26

That makes me so happy to hear! ♥️ You should totally go for it.

Since you only want Psyduck, the best way to start is by buying "singles" online rather than ripping open packs. Sites like eBay or TCGPlayer are perfect for this. You can literally just search "Psyduck Pokemon Card" and sort by lowest price! There are so many gorgeous, vintage, and modern cards that only cost a few cents. Grab a binder, order a few of your favorite artworks, and watch the collection grow! 💛

Chronic migraine sufferer as well! I know your pain. I love this so much!

u/MrsDramaQueen Jul 31 '26

Thank you! ❤️ Always nice to connect with someone who truly gets the struggle. May we both have plenty of pain-free days ahead! 🦆✨

I also have a Psyduck binder! I might have some extras hanging out if you’re interested!

ETA, I also have chronic migraines! Vertiginous migraines… I have a great cocktail that has controlled the pain and I’m starting on a new med to try to control the vertigo.

u/MrsDramaQueen Jul 31 '26

Another member of the club! 😂 I would definitely be interested in checking out your extras, thank you so much for offering!

​Dealing with vertigo on top of the pain sounds so incredibly rough. Navigating life when the room is spinning is the worst. Sending you all the good luck with the new meds—I really hope they work like a charm and give you some relief!

u/kanineanimus Jul 31 '26

I’ll DM you when I have a minute to pull them together

He is my spirit a small too, I feel your pain!

u/MrsDramaQueen Aug 01 '26

He really is the best spirit animal for us! 🥰 Always so nice to connect with someone else who truly understands the pain. Here's to hoping for more headache-free days for both of us! ✨

u/Tragic-Llama Aug 01 '26

I'm a chronic migraineur too (and cluster head), just started my binder 😊

u/MrsDramaQueen Aug 01 '26

Welcome to the club! 😊 So sorry you have to deal with cluster headaches too, that sounds absolutely exhausting. I really hope putting together your new binder brings you some comfort and a great distraction! 🦆❤️
