Well, um, last Sunday, I had the most mushrooms I have ever had in one sitting. They were cyanescens. The next day I felt real light-headed and my head ached real bad.
Is this common? Does anyone else get head pains after a great trip?

I dosed some lsd last friday night woke up at 1pm on saturday with a horrible headache I'm somewhat prone to headaches with out psychs in the picture to begin with but its not uncommon for me to get one after tripping I attribute it to not eating for extended periods of time

Yeah. It could be that. Sometimes I won't eat for a day before I trip.
But nonetheless, I felt horrible.

Excedrin is your friend 
damn not eating a day prior to tripping? thats hardcore. usually I just dont eat 3-4 hours before a mushrooms trip and for lsd I dont really keep track. If I did that I would be in agony during the trip

No the trips are amazing and real intense. It's just afterwards that almost makes tripping not even worth it.

yea I see that they would be more intense I dunno, not really my thing ...but I see where you're coming from if I want it to be intense I'll just eat more or grind em up and take a shot with lemon/orange juice

I never usually got any body load after an acid trip, but this batch of lsd I have kinda gives me a mild one, only when I'm coming down tho, once it hits the 12 hour mark, I can usually drift off to sleep and when I wake up the next day, no uncomfortable feelings... About your headache, I heard body load for mushrooms was somewhat more intense than lsd, so that might be what you're experiencing, like mikeytro suggests, excedrin could be helpful if it's really bothering you.

It was intense. The most intense trip I've EVER had.
I ate so much and it all started at 12:30 AM and when I don't remember anything just alots of colors and pixelated vision. Then as I came down it was 6:30 in the morning. Seemed lie it was only 2 hours.
I took so much that I also started to breathe really slow and almost thought I would die.

I've always had an amazing afterglow on all psychadelics. My philosophy is so profound, I feel like I'm rediscovering everything for the first time, and I see all the unseen beauty in life.

My biggest qualm with acid is the day after, it's impossible to fall asleep the same night you do acid. So the next day, you walk around feeling like shit because you got absolutely no sleep the night prior.
You could always drop acid in the morning I suppose, but who would do that?

I rarely get a day after. And with LSD I always make sure to dose at a sane time so I can get some sleep. I'm able to fall asleep on LSD around the 10 hour mark.

I feel rather shitty the morning after as well. I contribute much of this to the fact that I forget to eat and stay hydrated while I'm tripping, mainly because I don't notice hunger or thirst. it is said that a common first symptom of dehydration is a headache; I figure this is why I wake up with a headache the next morning or even as I'm coming down. Didn't even really think about that until now... I guess my next journey will include a large bottle of water.

is it really that odd to have a headache? I mean, think about what's working through your brain. it may not be doing damage but I'm sure it still tires it out a bit
I always have a bit of a headache and feel a bit sluggish the day after trips

I'm suprised to hear it's common to have hangovers. Most of my friends don't get them either like me. Do y'all not get an afterglow and feel completely content with life, and that your life is moving in a great direction?

I never get afterglow, I get aftershit
there have been times where I've felt particularly depressed after trips. I've never felt completely content with life, or that it's going in a great direction, afterwards
yet during my normal life I worry about things, and I'm usually scared about what direction my life is going, scared that its not going to turn out good
maybe there's a connection there

I don't know how much I had. I'd say I had about 20 dried, good sized mushrooms (Cyans).
Well, the next day my moods were better than average and I felt in high spirits. Like "Seventy" said - It might just be my brain pooped out. Afterall, it did feel like when you run around all day and the next day you have a sore-burning feel to your legs. It was like that but on the frontal lobe of my brain.
I don't know. We'll see what happens next time, I suppose.

The only thing I got an afterglow from so far is mdma and that lasted for about 2 weeks. I'm really trying to do things right with that molecule so it won't lose it's magic. The last time I took mdma was almost a year ago. As far as lsd, I do that every other week and have never gotten an afterglow experience as of yet. Maybe I'm not taking enough, this weekend I'm gonna pop my cherry with 2 hits.

i've had a terrible headache all day today. This is the first time i've had one like this after shrooming, and it wasn't my most intense trip, not by a longshot. Like you, it could be attributed to a lack of food and/or hydration. I feel like dehydration is the main reason for headaches while you are using any type of drugs, sometimes something so simple is just forgotten.

IMO the afterglow is almost better than the trip. Visuals are nice but, deep understanding and happiness is always better.
