Hi Mommasam, Yes stress can do it too for me, I guess I suffer like you with the weather pressure but usually if it is going to storm. Ellie :D

Hi Msedge, Luckily I don't suffer from headaches often, but being overtired can be one cause, eating raw onion gives me a headache too and also thundery weather. Ellie :D

Hi Mommasam, yes I am allergic to raw onions and yet I love them but try to avoid if I can as I know I will get a stinker of a headache if I do eat. Ellie :D

I suffer from migraines and they are brought on by major highs and major lows . If something really good happens I will end up with an instant headache the same as if I get upset with something it will bring on an instant headache . Lights , ceiling fans , the sun , really loud noises , worrying about something will also cause me to have a headache . Worrying about money is a big factor that brings on a headache . Finding out a bill is due and wondering if we are going to have enough to pay it !!

My kids drive my crazy and I think thats where most of my stress comes from so thats where I get most of my headache from.But then I get alot of stress from doing all the house work because I am the only one who cleans up the house come to think of it I get a lot of headache.

Yes, it usually happens when I have too much to think about. I get stressed out! Or anxious. But it can happen from not eating, or from eating too much. Or from eating the wrong things. Or maybe just not enough sleep. And sometimes from "THAT" time of the month! :( Yep, there are a lot of reasons for having a headache! :(

I most often get headaches from being over stressed, or overtired. I had a couple of real bad ones last week. I can usually take care of them with one apo naproxen tablet, and two Tylenol Extra strength tablets. That combination takes care of my headache in less than five minutes.

There are a lot of things that make my head ache. Lack of sleep, flu, not eating at a right time, glaring and yes over-thinking of hard situations and problems. So, I avoid sleeping very very late to have a good enough sleep; I take my vitamins daily to be away from sickness; eat at the right time; wear sunglasses when sun is very bright and I have to take things lightly and look at the positive side. Have a nice day msedge!

One is hunger headaches. So, instead of hearing my stomach groan, I'll get a headache. If it's not because of hunger, then the only explanation is stress. Stress from school, homework, etc.

Frim time to time I will get a headache and there is no medication that will touch it at all, I just have to wait fir it to take its course and it will usually run about forty eight hours and then start to wear off.I will always have the ache on the left hand side,over my left eye,which makes me feel that it must be my weak side,they say a headache will always hit a weak spot.I have tried using different types of medication,but it just makes me feel sickly,so I would rather go without than feel sick.
