Holy cow my head feels like someone took a hammer to it today! We were running late this morning for church so I didn't make any coffee like I usually do. Then I only had my vitamin water to drink most of the day so I have had no caffeine until we got home from church. My head is pounding! Even with this headache we took the kids to the park when we got home from church. Not sure what I was thinking because that did not help my head at all. Have you ever had a caffeine headache before?

@LovingMyBabies I usually take Aleve. That tends to work well.

@LeaPea2417 and @LovingMyBabies I keep generic Excedrin, usually called Headache Medicine. It has caffeine in it. Then if I catch the headache soon enouGH I can stop it.

@celticeagle Yes but nothing like that one yesterday, it almost felt like a migraine.

@celticeagle Well no sleep and no caffeine was probably a bad combination. Lol. It is still hurting a bit but not as bad as it was earlier-thank God.

Whenever I "think" I can go without my morning coffee, my head starts booming and reminds me that I need a fix. If I am in a rush to get out the door, I usually stop to get a cup on the way to my first client. My head will split if I don't get my caffeine fix.

@cherriefic Yeah we don't have the money to get one anywhere so sadly that wasn't an option for me.

Yes I have. If I dont have a bit of caffeine it does make a big difference. It is sad we are such addicts.

I don't know if i had a headache but I did remember being sleepy in the morning. It's probably because you got use to the coffee, that's why.

@Hate2Iron Yes they can! It actually hasn't calmed down completely yet. But it has gotten better at least.

Yes and that is one of the reasons I do not drink anything with caffeine in it anymore. I feel a lot better without it.

I'm sorry that you had a pounding headache. I love coffee but never leave the house in the morning without one. I've never had a coffee headache.

@Juliaacv Thank you. I am praying this headache goes away soon! I don't usually go without my coffee either, but we were late for church and I just didn't have time.

Yes, I had those headaches before from trying to cure myself of drinking coffee. I would start having a headache at 11:00 A.M. and it lasted for 5 days until I gave up. I had a coffee and my headache went away.

Too often. I've learned to grab a coffee or even a cola (which I detest) to stave off a caffeine headache.

@MorleyHunt Yeah, I should have had some coffee this morning but we were already late and I didn't want to be more late to church.

I don't usually get caffeine headaches. Does it go as soon as you have coffee?

Yes, I get a headache from lack of caffeine. I have a certain amount through out the day. If I do not then I have an awful screeching headache the next day. Usually the day I miss is Saturday, and so I wake up with an awful headache on Sunday. It sometimes has made me miss church in the past so I am more careful to drink the right amount at the right time on Saturday to keep from missing church on Sunday. Besides, I really hate that kind of headache.
