For me my most powerful migraines have an aura attached to them. The visual distraction is nothing more than an omen of the pain I will be in for when it goes away. For me my auras always have some hippy 60s trippy oil smear going on in them which is just scary to me.

My first one happened at work during a very stressful period in my career. It was very scary and I took a sick day to go to the hospital where they hadn't had much experience dealing with this. Bright lights, many questions later and finally getting here's some migraine medicine I was let go to research this on my own.
