Or being able to breathe normally when you don’t have a cold.
This does not apply to me, as a constant allergy dude.
I’ve heard Mars and the Moon have no spores.
Or not causing a car accident when you were close to causing one.
Or being able to poop normally when you didn’t just eat Taco Bell.

Drink water. A lot of you have headaches simply because you’re dehydrated.
I wish. I usually have headaches, because my hormones go on a rollercoaster ride throughout my menstruation cycle.
I’m on the third day of a soul crushing migraine. I don’t even care about feeling normal anymore. Just getting to “Shitty” would be a huge improvement
I truly feel for you. I’ll wish for a quick relief
^^ you’re going to get through this!
I hope you get better soon!
I feel you pain so much. I hope it subside soon and the postdome isn’t too bad.
Do painkillers not work for you?
Not OP but Not all painkillers work against migraines and something that works for one person might make it worse in another.
It’s a balancing act of trying to find out what will help and not make it worse that it already is.
Will coffee help? Maybe or it’ll make it worse Will pot help? Maybe or it’ll make it worse Etc.
I remember I got a migraine once and started masturbating and it actually made it feel much better
Yet for others it can make it way worse: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sexual_headache
I kinda have the inverse with anxiety.
I don’t realize how incredibly anxious I am all the bloody time, until I have that brief rare window without it.That and pain. I didn’t realize I was in pain my whole life until I had surgery for something else and they prescribed me Darvocet. Not only did I wake up feeling refreshed for the first time in my life, I found out just how much pain I’ve always been in. To the point where the surgery pain was nonexistent and I didn’t have to take more than 2 of the pills through the entire recovery period and the second time was just to test my theory from the first.
I’ve had parts removed since and didn’t bother with the pain meds after. It didn’t hurt any more than the rest of me did. I’m not sure if I should be scared, worried, or proud of that.
I’m going to take this moment to intentionally appreciate not having a headache. Thanks.
Is that because you don’t workout sufficiently or eat shit?
Was that the only two reasons you could come up with for when someone gets a headache?
Haha. English is not my first language and I’m depressed af rn. Or maybe I’m just a sheltered young idiot
You hate me right?
About a year ago I had some trouble with a wisdom tooth - and it started friday evening just as my dentist closed shop for the day. It wasn’t bad enough for me to go to ER, but I was quite miserable during the weekend. I remember at one point deciding to play some Skyrim VR, thinking maybe pretending like I’m a dragon-killing hero would take my mind off the pain. That’s when I learnt that being a Dragonborn with a toothache sucks.
Anyway, since then I’ve made it a point to think back occasionally and remind myself how great it is when my teeth don’t hurt, and I like to extend it to other people too, telling them to realise and cherish their lack of toothache. It’s your turn now. Be glad. Unless your teeth happen to hurt atm, in which case sucks to be you. Hope it does away soon.
I have a nasty tootache right now, so… seeing this thread and your post feels like some ironic joke that the universe arranged for me :D
(Thankfully paracetamol is helping, but most likely they will have to pull it out.)
Toothaches are awful. I basically had ruins in my mouth for years and I always had one wound or another in it.
Somehow I didn’t really notice any pain, until it got really worse and I finally overcame my fear of dentists. When I finally got to the doc and all of these problems were treated my whole body just felt so…silent.
The pain must’ve always been there, I just endured it and subconsciously blended it out.
I currently have a CSF headache from a spinal tap and my definition of headache has completely changed. I wish I never experienced anything like this
Or a stuffy nose. Think of all the times you took for granted that you could breathe freely.
This is the case with anything to do with health. And often the best feelings are when some form of unpleasantness dissipates.
A bad headache really is among the worst things one can experience. I luckily almost never do. It’s the only thing I’ve ever experienced that I could imagine leading to suicide were it to be chronical with no cure. Not even a bad depression has made me imagine that.
I’m that person with chronical headaches/migraines
It sucks but unfortunately after a while you just kinda get used to it.
I do what I can to minimize the amount of time I’m out of commission.
Shit sucks…but I’m still here
Dang, I’m in the same boat. Botox injections have started helping, but there’s usually several weeks at a time where every day I have migraines. If I didn’t have to help with kids and family, I’d probably just be in bed half the day. But, as you said, you just get used to it.
Wishing you relief, internet friend!
Same to you
Same goes for healthy stomach. Currently going through a rough stomach bug. Really missing the time when my stomach was fine.
That’s the human condition. All suffering and joy is relative to our baseline, and that baseline changes very quickly.
Reminds me of how its put in the book “Subtle art of not giving a fuck”
I love how you phrased this. It’s too true
Oh my version of this is the stuffy nose. It’s the worst trying to sleep when both nostrils are clogged. I’m going to take a moment to appreciate my clear nostrils rn
Nah trying to eat with both clogged is the worst.
