In the RTL podcast, Bushido speaks openly about his migraines.
The chronic illness has plagued him since he was ten years old.
Due to his visual disturbances during a migraine attack, he has anxiety and panic attacks.
The German rapper Bushido (44) opens in the RTL podcast “In bed with Anna-Maria and Anis Ferchichi» and talks about his migraines. As it happens that he has visual disturbances during an attack, it favors anxiety and panic attacks when he is traveling alone. During the last migraine sequence, he couldn’t see anything for over an hour. The chronic illness has plagued him since he was ten years old.
No spatial awareness
Since he sometimes no longer sees anything during a migraine attack, he sometimes also loses his spatial perception. However, the rapper does not take any medication, he would throw away prescriptions from the doctor as soon as he received them.
Bushido, the one with the real first name Anis means, says that he did autogenic training as a child. At the moment, traveling is causing him major problems – his exposure and the associated stress favor the panic attacks during a migraine attack. He is therefore in therapy, he says in the podcast.
The 44-year-old said he had two migraine attacks within six days. The first attack was bearable, but the second was on a different level and strongly reminded him of the years before. “Psychologically, it intimidated me so much again and made me anxious,” he says. “The severe headache, the nausea and the sensitivity to light, yes, that’s unpleasant, but I can manage that,” he explains, “what has always made it so disgusting for me is that you don’t know when you get migraines.” The visual disturbance, also called aura in medical terms, was severe during the second migraine attack within a week. He couldn’t see anything for over an hour.
