How do you deal with pain?

You could try to sleep?
Using electronics would probably just make it worse.

 

You punch that shit in the face and take it like a boy.

 

buy some chaos scrolls and let'em rip

more seriously, cluster headaches really suck. sorry to hear. not much you can do though.

 

I've had these before and it seriously sucks. You can't sleep it off. I mean you can try, but it'll take a while before you even pass out. I usually just take an extra strength ibuprofen or two and lay in bed until it passes

 

My mom has the same thing and she takes medication to lessen the pain. But it never fully goes away, I'll ask her about it when I get home

I don't like to use medication unless absolutely necessary so I typically just deal with pain as it comes.

 

Maybe rubbing some pepermint ointments on ya temples would help
Or smelling something minty/menthol

Get well soon

 

I don't know if this applies here but when I get headaches and they don't go away I put my feet in hot water and it actually works. Something about making the blood rush out of your head.... To me it's just magic
Maybe it's worth a try.

 

I don't know exactly the condition since the one I have isn't as extreme. In our family both my dad and mother tend to get really bad migraines from time to time. Usually caused by lack of sleep or stress.
I have it as well and I've had to deal with pain inside my head. When migraine gets bad even painkillers become useless. Much like in cluster headache. The best tips I could give would be: Try to jog or tire your body out during the day (if just possible), usually good intake of oxygen helps and it helps you to fall asleep. The other one is when you get these attacks try to get yourself in a pitch black room. Even if there's no attack, laying in a dark room makes it easier for your head.

But those are mainly tips for migraine. What I quickl gathered from cluster headache, it feels much more painful and harder to deal with. I wish I could help you better. That kind of pain is something you don't wish to anyone, it seriously sucks ass. Best wishes to you. Power to you.

 

copious amounts of ganja seem to do the job for me

 

Could try working out and directing the pain somewhere else?

 

Suffered from these in my senior year. Mostly they were caused by a mix of stress, loud m music, and a lack of sleep.

If any of those sound like you. Try to get yourself on a good non habit forming p painkiller. Get on a sleep schedule that won't leave you third inn the morning. And most importantly. Limit the amount of time spent in front of your computer screen. The stress on your eyes is killer.

I hope you can get through these quickly. They suck.
