I understand. You're NOT saying ROOT cause. Sorry it took me a bit to see your point.
Does my thinking, talking, learning, reading, fears, personality and searching the Internet and stuff like that about Cluster Headaches, prolong my "cycle" and/or frequency and/or severity of attacks?
I trust that the answer to that question is the premise of your theory. (Sure would be a lot easier if we were sitting at a table talking instead of in two different parts of the world, huh)???
Ok, here's MY answer.
I don't fear sleep like some clusterheads do. Why bother fearing sleep? I simply go to sleep when I'm tired and IF I get a headache I wake up and abort it. (that's just my personality).
I don't believe that my thirst for knowledge about Cluster Headaches has anything to do with increasing or decreasing an individual attack OR with lengthening or shortening my Cluster "cycle".
Hope this helps you with your theory.
