We try really hard to promote that self-awareness when he's right on the cusp of getting better or getting worse, to ask him to stop, and think about how his tummy is feeling right now, and how his head is feeling, and how the other parts of his body are feeling, and he's making a little progress in that awareness, understanding when he's feeling a little bad, or that he just crossed that line into starting to feel relief. But when we're in the thick of a "rough" period, not a chance.

I'm gonna guess it's probably a lot like why people decide to go off their meds; "I feel great! Don't need 'em"
Uhh, yeah but aren't you feeling great because you're on meds?
