Waking up with a headache?
I recommend checking your pillows. If you are sleeping on too many then your head gets jacked up all night and can cause stress and pulling on the muscles at the back of your head giving you a tension headache. Get a very flat pillow. Roll up a medium sized towel and tie it so it stays rolled up. Place the towel on your bed and place the pillow over the top of it. Lay on it so the towel falls right in the curve of your neck. This will allow the proper support for the curve of your neck and help prevent tension headaches. You can experiment with the size of the towel roll to find out what size is right for your particular neck. You will need to sleep on your back for this to work. You can try hanging your head over the edge of your bed to facilitate a curve in your neck as well. Do not do this if you have high blood pressure or other balance problems unless you first consult a professional. Don't do this for more than 3 minutes. It will help stretch out your spine. It could also be due to grinding your teeth in your sleep. See a Chiropractor. They will be able to help you determine if it is your posture while sleeping that is causing the headaches. I can say from personal experience, I rarely get headaches anymore from sleeping (I used to get them all the time) since I get adjusted regularly now. I have also helped many patients with the same problem.
Why would you get a headache after waking up from a dream?
If this happens often you may be depriving your brain of oxygen by not breathing well or at all. Your deepest sleep is your last REM event of the cycle. REM is your "deepest" sleep where everything is still but your eyes. Since this is so apneas are worse during REM. Take this epworth sleepiness scale. Also, Do you snore? Do you wake up with a dry mouth? What do your witnesses say?
I dream too much, and it makes me have headache in the morning?
Hey, it could quite possibly have nothing to do with psychological causes. With sleeping, it is suggested that individuals get 8 hours of sleep in order to successively transfer through each stage of sleep several times before one wakes up. Also, try to go to sleep before 12. This is a concept known as "Circadian Rhythm." I can't really remember too much about it but look it up if you want. It is the idea that certain organs in our body take 24 hours to go through it's biological behavioural processes - also known as the "Human Clock.' Sleep much also be routine and but there are no adverse long term effects if one misses an excessive amount of sleep. Dreams are the mind's way of consolidating (fortifying) memories and information within the brain that was learned during the day - At least, that's one proposition. Another theory is that we dream of our inner most desires (Freud) and another theory is that dreams are just a random sequence of events caused by a transmission of waves from what I think is the spine. When you dream, your brain emits a similar set of brain waves that are much like those when you are awake, except the only difference is that you're not awake and you can't move. So, from a theoretical point of view, the heightened brain activity MAY cause headaches. Anyway, my point being, it may depend on the content of your dreams or as someone else said, what you think about before and/or after. If you're a stressed individual then your mind may be cluttered which is reflected within your dreams which is then subconsciously giving you headaches. A different approach to all of this is your hair! I know, it sounds silly, but I have big hair and I find that, when I get a haircut, my head feels a lot lighter during the day and when I wake up. Finally, you could be dehydrated. Either that or a nutritional thing. Make sure you drink 6 to 8 glasses of water. The minimum being 2Literss but that's apparently how much the body uses in a day so you want to stay slightly above it. I've always attempted to drink two 1.25litere bottles of water in a day but it's a lot of work and hard when you're always busy. Moisturizer on the face may help with dryness but I'm not sure about headaches. Ok, so look into your psychological well being, your hair for that matter too and your health - nutrition and hydration.
Why do I wake up with a headache when I sleep in the basement?
I would speculate that your furnace is in the basement, and that your house has temperature setback, and that the furnace doesn't kick back on till after 7A.M., so you don't notice things on the weekdays, but that you and your friends don't get up till after that on the weekend days. I very much suggest that there be a carbon monoxide detector mounted in the basement, or at the very least a smoke detector near the furnace. Alternately, you could wake up dead later on when the furnace comes on during the night after things get a lot colder. And if you don't have at least 8% of your floor area in window area, half of it being openable, it is not legally a habitable space, per the International Code for residential properties. People were not designed to live in caves. Nor near carbon monoxide sources into their habitable spaces.
Waking up with a pounding headache ?
Alternate systems of medicine can only help you. There is no medicine for H/A OR MIGRAINE. Not only these but for RA, OA, Back ache and almost all painful diseases. Hence they become chronic. Acidity, WORRY, sadness, excessive wind, cold , heat, sour food and sinusitis, constipation, intestinal inflammation; drug side effects, stress, bad smell, TV & COMPUTER SOMETIMES, Blockage in the flow of Vital Energy, BODY CONSTITUTION etc are their causes. None of them can be treated with medicine. Our 100% success in treating migraine &H/A confirms it. Acupuncture is the best treatment. I can treat it with naturopathy and YOG, but how can you manage pl see. Pain killers don't treat the pain but we loose the sense of pain for some time; in that duration our body itself treats sometime and credit goes to meds. The useless drugs have tremendous power of side effects like liver/kidney failures, ulcer, inflammation of intestines and lot more. Avoid late sleeping if possible; worry, tension, spicy foods, sour fruits, stale bakery foods, SMOKING and alcohole. Sweet foods, COCOANUT WATER,sweet fruits, milk, rice, SPROUTS, SALADS and good sleep will help if cough is not there. But you try one herbal remedy- two drops of drumstick leaves' juice in opposite nostril if one side pains and both nostrils if full H/A will give you rescue. Betel leaf helps but it is very strong. If it is acute pl search a painful point 3-6 mm behind your thumb nail and press it, H/A will disappear within 30 seconds. For forehead pain the points are in front of nails on the finger tips or 3-7 mm below. It may disappear naturally too.

What would you do if you woke up with a headache and the person who A2A’d you were sleeping on the floor near you?
“Ugh, my fucking head I need some white pills. Or were they pink in a white bottle..? No no, definately white pills and white bottle.” Sitting up, James yawned and looked around.In his room, so far, so good. Laying back and grabbing his phone for some early morning Qoura notif handling, he noticed something small and red on the floor.Slowly looking down, he saw a sleeping girl. She looked young.For a moment, James thought that maybe his wishes were granted. Monika? He thought with great hope.Then he remembered. Brown hair, not red.“Then who..” he caught a glimpse of her face and finally rolled over in annoyance.“This is no good. Rydia, I could punch you for whatever is happening.” he held his head as another headache pain went through it. “Uh oh.” He spotted a bottle of pills on the bookshelf and sighed with irritation.“Wonderful, I guess this is my punishment for wanting a yandere girlfriend, huh?” He looked down, and noted that his pants from the previous night were still on. “Scratch that. But then what's going on?”Standing and grabbing the pill bottle, he noticed a note taped to the bottom. It read:“Hey James, you probably woke up first so I'll address this to you. Uhhhh. Oh yeah! You guys are stuck in here until you make Jydia cannon-Loric ;)”James turned his head to the ceiling and let out a furious roar. “JYDIA SHIPPERS… LLLOOOOOORRRRRRRIIICCCC!
Why do some people wake up with a headache in the morning?
I know why I wake with up with headaches occasionally. There are various trigger points in the muscles of the neck and upper back, these sometimes get aggravated if I sleep in certain positions, and can cause headaches when I wake up. Picture taken from: 'The trigger point therapy workbook,' 2nd edition, Clair Davies.If this happens to you, I would highly recommend buying this book, it tells you how to massage these points and relieve the tension, it really works!
Is it normal to have a headache when you wake up in the morning?
It is possible. We call a condition as normal when in most / majority of the cases the conditions presents itself.Headache when one wakes up in morning is not normal.It could be a signal of low metabolic rate.Read my blog for detailed explanation.**My blog in brief - **Chronic mineral imbalance in blood leads to low metabolic rate resulting in aging and age related diseases like blood sugar, blood pressure and heart disease etc.To correct mineral imbalance do hydration dehydration cycles and to increase resting metabolic rate do walking and rest routines as detailed on my blog.Read my blog for more details and / Or watch my you tube videos at - rajinder bhalla******To increase Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR) do the following******Walk for 5 minutes at easy pace within your home in the morning.After walking rest for 5–10 minutes in bed.Repeat the above 3 times in the morning, afternoon, evening and at night before sleeping. So that makes for 12 walk and rest routines or 5x12 = 60 minutes of walk for the entire period. One can do it selectively during week days and on working days only in the morning and at night.The idea about walking is that it mobilises energy and before the entire mobilised energy is spent we rest. In such a case a part of the mobilised energy becomes available for vital organs. Doing walking and rest routines takes care of aging related diseases as well.****In brief hydration dehydration cycles is as given here -****Day 1 - Drink 150–200 ml water every hour from 7 am to 6 pm. No other fluid/ liquid.Day 2,3 - Drink 150–200 ml water 3 times only during the day. Total fluid intake 450–600 ml in the day.Repeat for 2–3 weeks.Fluid overload is one of the basic reasons of low resting metabolic rate.For explanation of the above read my blog.
