Coping Strategies in Migraine without Aura: A Cross-Sectional Study.

Conclusions: The present study revealed that MwoA patients show a significantly reduced use of the "turning to religion" approach, an emotion-focused coping strategy. Although migraine patients appeared to be less oriented to transcendent (that means a reduced utilization of an adaptive coping strategy), they did not perceive daily living as more stressful than HCs. Finally, the reduced utilization of the "turning to religion" coping strategy is associated with a great impact of migraine on ability to function on the job or at school, at home, and in social situations in migraine patients.
