Stop Relying on Pain Pills

Headache medicine is meant to help when your head hurts. But if you keep taking it too often, something strange can happen—your brain may actually create pain just to get the medicine. It’s easy to believe the pain is unbearable without the pills, yet many people have found that once they stopped, the headaches eventually faded away.
Almost everyone knows the misery of a pounding headache. But once you start leaning on pills, things get worse. At some point, even a handful of tablets won’t make a difference. Before you reach for the bottle, take a moment to ask why the headache is happening. Is it stress, exhaustion, or sleepless nights? Face those causes directly. And sometimes, the best step is to throw the bottle away.
