Headache after trip...
    #5623789 - 05/13/06 03:43 AM (17 years, 8 months ago)

Hey everybody, need some advice/information.

I've tripped about 25 times on different substances, but after my last two trips with shrooms (1.5g with the gummihuasca method and 8g dried) I had a headache, the last one being really intense for about 24 hours: no sleep whatsoever.

The first time it happened, it was probably due to the fact that I totally forgot to drink anything during the entire trip and then decided I needed to eat some French cheese, but the last time I drank some during the trip and more after. The thing was that I was getting nauseous of anything I put in my mouth, water, food, etc. So I did not drink a whole lot, but I would say I persisted and did as much as I would do in a day normally. Yet: Headache.

Does anyone have an idea as to why this happens?

BTW I did not eat before both these trips for about 20 hours, so I reckon that couldn't be it...

Not eating for 20 hours would give me a headache. That's not being good to your body, and my guess is that your headaches are being caused by dehydration and malnutrition. Eat something a few hours before you dose, and drink liquids as needed. GL.

Well, I fast pretty regularly for a day or two, just to clean up my system. It doesn't give me headaches at all, unless I drink too little. Dehydration might be one of the causes, but last time I was pretty careful with that...

most times I take acid I end up with a small headache
I don't think its dehydration or lack of food
The pain is at the back of the skull I think it might be over stimulation of the visual and other areas of the brain
(overwork a muscle and it hurts)

I think the 20 hrs without eating would be the culprit, at least for me.

I very much doubt that it was lack of food, because in the afterglow of the trip (after about 6 hours), I did eat some fruit and some slices of bread. I also ate some chocolate and raisins. The headache only started after the food. I reckon it would be very strange if I did not eat for 26 hours and after I ate I got a headache BECAUSE I did not eat. Maybe I ate something that was not good for me at this time. But I tend to think more in terms of overstimulation, like UnderNose said. Did anyone here have similar experiences with shrooms?

Another question: might smoking a little weed in the afterglow prevent such a headache?

Just to throw in my $.02, I usually get headaches after tripping due to the pupil dilation. It's similar to the headache you get from having the sun in your eyes for an extended drive. By either breaking out the shades (yes, even indoors), or just lowering the lights, I've found that I don't get them anymore.

Hmmm, that's a very interesting point, Economist. On both occasions that I had a headache after a trip, I was tripping during the day (because I did not want to mess up my rhythm of sleep). Both days were very sunny. On the first trip, with a mild headache afterwards, I had my eyes open for only a short while and it was mid-winter. On the second trip, just a few days ago, I was looking around a lot more and thinking about things while doing that. I guess this all makes sense. My pupils were huge (I looked in the mirror for about 15 minutes).

Thanks for all your replies... It was a really good trip anyway, btw, just a bummer that I almost lost the positive feeling I had due to the headache.

I think it has something to do with water intake. When I forget to drink water I'm pretty much fucked for a headache the next day. If I drink lots of liquids it's a bit better, sometimes no headache at all.

i get a headache after every trip, regardless of things i have tried differently. i eat before hand, not eat before, eat during the trip, drink plenty of water during, nothing seems to make a difference.

i almost always trip indoors at night with some cool techno blasting, and occasionally wander outside for a change of scenery.

the only thing that seemed to make sense to me was what Economist said about pupil dilation, other than that i am stumped.

I'm surprised there isn't a definitive answer on this one

Yeah it always worked for me taking some calcium and magnesium two times a day for the next two days. I mean it doesn't help you for the firs time after you do it, but with time meaning like two trips after doing that your headaches will be over.... mine were.
