stop worrying. or go get a check up and tell your doctor about the headaches.
I believe you can tell him you took shrooms as there is doctor-patient confidentiality.

Shrooms are not going to give you any brain damage, man. Chill out. I'm going to go out on a limb, here, and guess that the majority of your headaches are related to you stressing out about your headaches...

well i dont think my headaches now are due to me freakin out baout my other headaches, i kno you guys prolly think im dumb, but iv never been like this before i took the shrooms, so its the only thing im guessin that did this to me, and i know its stupid like of me sayin brain damage or my brain rottin away, but i really want this to stop and i worry about it everytime it happens, hell, i have it right now, it goes on for hours man. its really creapy, and if i go to a doc and tell him what i told you guys, im scared that he'll say im fucked. so are you sure shrooms dont damage your brain if you dont do them often, are you sure im ok, are you sure that like im not gonna be brain dead?

YOU'RE GOING TO BE HELLA OTAY. shrooms don't damage your brain, champ. but if you didn't know that already maybe you shouldn't be doing them eh?

do you sleep with your head in a microwave? i know they are HELLA comfortable, but you just have to stop, for your brain's sake.

I am not a medical doctor, so don't take this as medical advice.

There is no reason at all that the mushrooms would have caused your problems.  Did you drink a cola, or smoke a cig, or eat meat, or forget to brush your teeth, or any other millions of things we do eat day the same day that you ate mushrooms?  If so, any of those things is just as likely as the mushrooms to be causing your problem.  I am trying to say that you don't want to jump to conclusions.

There are many things that can cause headaches.  If you have alergies, the start of spring might be triggering a sinus problem which can cause some killer headaches.  You might have a very mild viral infection, such as a cold, the flu, or something like mono (been kissing much lately?).  You could also be stressing yourself out, not getting enough sleep, perpetuating the problem.

If they don't go away, I would talk to a doctor.  If you do see a doctor, be honest with her about your concerns and what you have done.

Remember, very little of what is in a mushroom is able to get to the brain.  There is a blood-brain barrier that only a few types of molecules can pass through.  Your brain isn't rotting, unless you are sniffing solvents or something similiar.

When you feel your emotions running away from your, try sitting down, close your eyes, take a few deep breaths of air while slowly counting from 1 to 10.  Don't think about anything but deep breaths and counting.  If you start to think about what is upsetting you, don't worry, simply stop thinking about it and start counting again.  Don't try to do better, or scold yourself, just breath and count.  Continue with life when you feel calm again.  It works wonders after a bit of practice.  :smile:

Edit: I forgot to mention that you sound young.  (If you are under 18, you will be banned from this site; I am not asking for your age and don't want to know!)  Regardless of age, but even more so if you are younger, lay off any other non-prescription drugs that you are taking.  Cannabis (weed) coupled with your level of anxiety could be a bad mix.  If you are on anything else, try drying out for a bit and see if that helps.  (The concerned parent in me speeaking out, no disrespect meant.)

It sounds like "media-suggested illness". You were worried about shrooms causing you brain damage and you've convinced yourself they have.

Aspirin comes around 200 in the toxicity league, psilocybin comes around 680. Quit worrying about it. Your headaches have absolutely nothing to do with the effects of the shrooms themselves.

Did you ever consider your headaches were caused by allergies? This is allergy season you know. I always suffer from headaches this time of year.

It should be noted that low numbers are more dangerous. Think of it as the number of extra doses you can take before overdosing. (This analogy isn't reality. Don't take 199 asprins thinking every thing will be fine.)

I don't get it. How are low numbers more dangerous? To overdose on mushrooms you would need to eat lbs of them.

Drink alot of water. Most of the headaches occur due to dehydration and muscle fatigue.  Also, stop worrying! smoke some herb :smile:

There is no evidence that mushrooms damage your brain. Your brain is NOT going to rot away, so toss that thought away.

It is very possible you did something else that may be causing the headaches, or that you have an allergy you were not previously aware of that is causing it. But you are associating the mushroom with it because of the timing.

I knew someone once who unknowingly badly pulled a muscle in their neck which caused headaches for 6 weeks.....they had no idea what the cause was until a chiropractor discovered the torn muscle.

Treat yourself with headache pain relief medicine, and if it persists without improvement, see a doctor in confidentiality.

Oh, and change your name to something less paranoid than "very_scared", cause you don't want to maintain that state of mind.

Mushrooms have a tendancy to "bring forth" any type of mental conditions or stresses or anything that WAS ALREADY IN YOUR HEAD, just waiting to pop out - they give these issues a little push into your consciousness - sounds like this is what happened - dude a doctor won't like send you to jail or anything - the doctors are here to fix you - its the cops who you don't want to tell, and doctors don't like cops any more than you do man :smile:

Good luck - don't forget: YOU ARE ALIVE AND WELL; probably just uprooted something deep in your mind.

Heh.. you can cure it psychologically. I remember the first time I tripped I had a small headache for a while (I do not think 2-3 weeks though). Veryscared if it just small headaches you're not about to drop dead. If you are inferring that you have contracted a tumor, well I knew someone who died from that so I kind of learned that they would a: intensify and b: you would start forgetting things. Still go see the doctor if some medication doesn't work.

hey VERYSCARED !!

I had a headache from about wensday to now (saterday)  and why did I get it you ask???
cause I am prone to headaches
try reading about causes them , rather than freaking out  do some searches on the net , take herbs , CUT OUT ALL white sugar(brown tastes good anyway) plus white sugar causes acne so why not brown, no caffine and this is important

do a search on vitamins !!!!!!!! not getting enough(or way to much) can cuase headaches and many other things that people suffer from and dont figure out the cause they dont read about their aliments
SHROOMS ARE NOT THE CAUSE !!!!!!
I feel for you  cause yesterday I had a headache so bad I wanted to die(not that I CHOULD kill myself .......Im to much of a pussy for that.........but I wanted ANYTHING that would stop the pain :mad:

and today (like all days after I suffer real badwith a headache )  I feel great!!!!!! :grin:
the one good thing about headaches if there even is a good thing about them is that they make me appreciate life MUCH more and keeps me writing , reading  etc etc , cant be lazy and just rot as a person watching tv and such on a day after such pain!!!!!!!!!!!

I have to write music , play guitar etc
thats the ONE good thing about them :grin:

Raw (unrefined) brown sugar comes from sugar cane or sugar beets. White sugar is refined from raw brown sugar and is essentially pure sucrose. Molassas is pressed from sorghum using a molassas mill. If you do not see the words raw or unrefined along with brown sugar then you are getting white sugar that has had something, usually molasses, added to alter the flavor and color.

He named popular myths. And afew of them. With that amount of exageration I would have to say he's joking...

do a google on LD50 ratings,

a synopsis : chemicals for workplace health and saftey have a material saftey data sheet.
alot of stuff has a MSDS including aspirin.

an LD50 rating basically means the amount of an item required to kill 50% of the test population.

for example Monsanto ( the pesticide people) make a synthetic plant hormone called roundup, it acts as a non-selective herbacide to kill damn near ANYTHING that photosynthesizes... it has a LD50 rating of 4560 (may not be the exact #)
where as table salt, has a LD50 rating of call it 2000
ergo it requires less salt to kill 50% of a given population (by mass) than it does the roundup, thus it is less toxic.
the higher the ld50, the less toxic
i forget what the standard ratio is but i think its something on the order of 1:1000 ie 1mg per KG
basically that gives you exposure rates.

*** the #'s arent accurate.. but it gives you a ballpark idea... go look it up on the web.

Many opticians give free eye tests. Could be you might need contact lenses or something.

One of my friends suffered from very bad headaches and he blamed it on taking too many drugs but it turned out he just needed glasses !  :wink:

This just cracks me up,reading this thread. This guy was all paranoid that his brain was rotting away, so he came to the Shroomery! For help!? I mean, shit...The first drugs severely fuck me up, you can damned well bet I'll be at the hospital telling them exactly what I took.

Dont be stupid people. Your doctor will NOT arrest you for getting sick off of drugs.

Well he was asking what is the chance it was the mushrooms. People have pointed out it's pretty much zero.

I imagine the guys on here know more about mushrooms than the average doctor.

He thought it was eating away at his brain. I'm quite sure that even your local pediatrician is better able to diagnose brain disease than anyone on these boards...

You remind me of an old friend I have. When he was young he thought a cough was pneumonia, a fever was malaria, a birth mark was skin cancer, a head ache was a tumour..

You people will laugh, but he was such a hypercondriac about everything that he finally went to a shrink to get this problem under control.

You took mushrooms, which are about the safest drug in the world (legal/illegal), and you are now convinced they caused you cluster headaches?? Those types of headaches are incredibly rare in the population, and those poor souls who suffer from it will tell you that during a cluster headache you pray for death cause its so painfull.

Now for the fact you jumped to the conclusion that a headache could be a clusterheadache makes me think you might be like my old friend who over reacted about everything.

I have suffered with Migranes for about 10yrs now, and those don't compare to the suffering of cluster suffers. In fact you probably just have a simple headache and your own constant worrying is only making it worse.

You can actually create a headache by being stressed and tense! So if you are all paranoid about tumours and that mushrooms ruined your brain; well you are actually making that headache worse and possibly even that is the cause of them.

I think if you react like this a lot to other situations that you seek professional help, a shrink can help you get a grip on such behavior.

Good luck.
