How often do you get headaches?

[Xara]

not that often. i sometimes will get them if i go a while without eating or if i’m tired but i hardly ever have headaches, thankfully lol

 

[Blood Eclipse]

I don't get headaches too often, unless I can't sleep for about three days or I'm under incredible stress, so about once a month, maybe.

 

[maple22]

Far too often. Sometimes I've been waking up with them up to 4 times per week.

 

[Kaiaa]

I rarely get headaches, and I’ve only ever had two migraines. Once when I was 16 and once two days before my wedding!

At least once a week, though I couldn't tell you why. They just pop up at random, last for random amounts of time, and then go away at random. They're usually just annoying and inconvenient, but I do always get at least one really bad one each month.
The bad ones make me miserable. I can feel the pressure building up behind my eyes and in my head, the slightest noise and flash of light feels like daggers in my brain, and I can't even move or speak without feeling like someone's put my head into a hydraulic press. Moving my head at all makes me feel like someone spun my brain around like a record. If I don't take any medication for it, it'll only go away if I go to sleep, by which point it's bad enough to make me nauseous. It sucks.

Almost never. If I do almost always know what it is from; not drinking enough, sleeping too long, caffeine withdrawal, etc.

daily, and it's no fun.

I get them often, sadly. I'm that person that usually suffers with migraines and minor to severe headaches, and I'll get them completely at random, out of nowhere. I usually get them a few times a week, but if I'm lucky sometimes I do have weeks where I'll only have one. It's very sporadic and spontaneous, which makes it frustrating.

 

[Locket]

i have headaches literally almost everyday and they have a few specific causes

- tension because of whiplash (most of my headaches as of recently)
- lack of food (happens at school)
- lack of caffeine
- slept for too long (i can't sleep for more than like 8 hours)

 

[visibleghost]

rarely. i might have headaches that i just don't pay notice to but which impact my mood (make me easily aggregated and annoyed, in a bad mood or tired) but obviously those can't be that bad if i don't even think "oh yeah, this is a headache." i get worse ones occasionally but it's nothing too bad and i easily recover from them, usually the reason can be traced back to not eating, drinking or sleeping as much as i should

A little while ago I suffered from an extreme headache that had followed some cluster headaches I had been dealing with for the past couple of night before that. Its kinda funny how even thinking about having a headache can make my temple tense up a little.

 

[Mairmalade]

I'll get headaches if I don't drink enough water or don't take any breaks while at work. Coffee headaches are also a real thing.

Maybe once every 1-2 weeks.

 

[Harbour]

during the school term, i'd be lucky to get a migraine once a week.
people have told me that i should eat or drink something to help calm it down but i feel nauseous and can't.
luckily school's over (for now) and my head has returned back to normal.

 

[Chris]

Too often. Right now it doesn't help that I'm staring at my laptop screen at least 8hrs a day for work.

 

[John Wick]

At least once a week, but that's dehydration.

 

[allainah]

Actually i never get headaches; which is kinda weird cause i dont take care of myself mentally or physically lol

 

[thebestCarrie]

I've been diagnosed with chronic migraine, and every 12 weeks I get Botox to try to help. Because I tried short term opiates to try to help the pain I'm now in a rebound cycle and - not addicted, but dependent for lack of a better term, while trying to wean off of them.

I can't take triptans because I get adverse reactions to them where all my muscles start tensing up, and I'm trying to find a way to stop the pain. I've found during this time of being isolated, it's made my headaches worse because I'm not as distracted as I usually am.

 

[Princess Mipha]

I've got a huge headache yesterday after cutting the grass.
I never got any bad reactions from pollen or so, but yesterday it lowkey destroyed me.
Now I see why people with allergy hate pollen that much..

 

[Flyffel]

Some people have it DAILY?! OMG

I thought I was bad off with about once a week, although I might go weeks without and then have a headache for several days a week...

 

[SmoochsPLH]

Migraine issues run in my family. I get headaches very easy/often and they last too long.
