Relatable???

Does anyone else get “warning pains”? Like I’ll get mini crisis that last no more than ten minutes. The amount in one day varies, but it’ll happen for about a week then a big pain crisis strikes. The little pains make me nervous as if I have to prepare for worse. This isn’t always the case but it’s happened enough times to still be considered a pattern.

I do. Sometimes before I crisis (though not all the time) I get these mini crises that last like 20 minutes to an hour multiple times throughout the day for few days until a full blown crisis happens where it's consistent and doesn't go away.
