help... headache... arrrrrrrghhhh *brain explodes*Follow

i have the worst headache imaginable. what can i do to fix it? i've heard drinking a coke works, but all we have is the caffiene free sodium free diet rite sh*t. i dont have any ibuprofen or aspirin so thats not an option =(.

A double-dose of NyQuil should do the trick.

Didn't realize you were hanging around, Hippo. Welcome back and junk.

About your headache...

If it's a hangover, drink a lot of water, and try to sleep. If you can manage to fall asleep, it should be gone when you wake up.

The Coke thing really only works when you drink significant amounts of caffeine, and haven't had any in a while.

If it's neither, get thee to a pharmacy. Walk, skateboard, drive, whatever. Get ibuprofen. Prescription strength is 800mg, and it's usually prescribed up to 4 times a day. I get bad headaches often, not migraines though, and I've found that 600mg is fine for me. You can get it over the counter and measure accordingly. Usually, I take it just once and I'm good for a few days. Be sure that you're not allergic to it, and be sure to talk with the pharmacist for confirmation. I got my information from a dentist, and I've found that the ibuprofen works better for me than percocet or lortab or pretty much any painkiller that's prescribed for dental work, with no side effects. Just be sure, if you go that route, to eat when you take it as the ibuprofen will probably make you sick on an empty stomach. Above all, talk with your pharmacist before you take anything.

If you're experiencing color flashing, bad sensitivity to light, sound, nausea, etc., go to a doctor.

If it persists for several days, with no fading, go to a doctor.

Hope it gets better. Headaches suck.

Scary as sh[b][/b]it. I started getting migraines in my early 20s. So now I always keep bottles of Excedrin around. Best thing I've tried.

If you have spending a lot of time outside, you might be depleted on salt and potasium. If you can get some, I would recommend that you take it. I have it a lot from lack of salt due to sports and such. Just a suggestion :)

Do you have beer (or other alcoholic drinks) around the house?

If so, drink one (or a shot in the case of vodka/rum/etc.). Because of alcohol's muscle-relaxant effects, it will help with *some* (not all) headaches.

And who the fu[b][/b]ck is in charge of buying soda for your house?

Yup, I once knew a guy who knew a girl who daughters friends sisters aunts mothers great aunt had one.

Acted just like what you've described.

Sorry dude, you’re dieing.

Don't take acetaminaphen (Tylenol) for hangovers. Bad for your liver.

no, wasnt a hangover. i havent gotten drunk since i started smoking weed. after i decided to drink a couple of 8 oz glasses of vodka at one of my friend's house i got so incredibly sick that i havent been able to stomache anything more than the horse **** budweiser likes to call beer. i even have a tendency to gag on red wine. =(

well, its all gone. i finally said f*ck it and woke my mom up and got her to give me some tylenol PM at 3:20am.

grrr.... neither THC or any of the cannabanoids that are released when you smoke marijuana destroy braincells. it just doesnt kill brain cells. alcohol on the other hand...

marijuana doesnt make you stupid, being stupid makes you stupid. marijuana is just more prevalent among poorer members of society, and they tend to be less educated, resulting in the stereotype of the stupid pot smoker.

Only while you're under the effects of it. It's not a bioaccumulative neurotoxin like LSD is - but metabolites of THC do sit around in your bloodstream for a little while. Kind of like potheads. :->

Moral of the story: If Stephen Hawking fuc[b][/b]king WANTED to roll himself a doob and toke up, when he came back down he'd be perfectly capable of expounding on the study of black holes and the Grand Unified Theory. :-P

I dunno about that, Angry. You don't see Stephen Hawkings rolling a doob, tokin' up, and expounding on the study of black holes and the Unifying Theory. All you see are skater dudes wearing beanies and chuckling about how great a McFlurry tastes after blazing.

All-in-all, MJ isn't conducive to doing well on your SAT, ya know?


Oh yeah, no one at Cambridge smokes pot. Especially not the faculty! Ask Pat.
