That looming fear of the next migraine attack? It’s not in your head—and it’s not your fault.

The Migraine Heroes Podcast is your guide to healing migraines at the root—through science, story, and the ancient wisdom of Eastern medicine. Hosted by Diane Ducarme, who has helped over 500 migraine sufferers reclaim their lives, this podcast is where evidence meets empathy.

In this episode, we deep dive into migraine anxiety—why it happens, how it fuels your pain, and what you can do to stop living in fear.

You’ll:

• Discover how anxiety keeps your nervous system stuck in survival mode—and worsens migraine frequency
• Learn about Polyvagal Theory and how to regulate your internal “threat detection system”
• Walk away with self-soothing tools, nervous system resets, and daily rituals to reclaim calm and confidence

We’ll explore both Western neuroscience and Eastern traditions like Traditional Chinese Medicine to help you understand the root of your anxiety and how it affects migraine patterns—from your gut to your brain.

Whether you’re experiencing chronic anxiety or simply want to break the migraine-fear loop, this episode offers gentle, powerful shifts—backed by real stories of healing from our Migraine Heroes community.

For women, men, and children who suffer from migraine disease, Migraine Heroes is your go-to resource for understanding, managing, and overcoming migraine attacks.

We cover all types of migraines and related headaches, including primary and secondary migraines, chronic migraines, and cluster migraines. We dive deep into the complexities of migraine with aura and migraine without aura, as well as rarer forms like hemiplegic migraine, retinal migraine, and acephalgic migraine (silent migraine). Our discussions also extend to cervicogenic headaches, ice pick headaches, and pressure headaches, which often mimic migraine or contribute to overall migraine burden.
