    lol did you do what the majority of people do, i never understood this but you see hords of people doing it, they eat something cold get "brainfreeze - the pain in the forehead) and they slap their forehead to make it better, surely that just doesn't work at all

    I press my temples till it hurts more than the brainfreeze.. tends to help, but gives you an uber-sore heed...

    someone showed me once that if you push you thumb up against the roof of you mouth quite hard and hold it for a while, applying pressure throughout, it helps you get over headaches, dunno about with ice headaches...but there you go

    Hms, I'm really not sure what I'm doing in a situation like that. I haven't paid much attention to that But I guess it's something stupid, that is not working well . But I guess I'm quite good at avoid it..because I can't really remember the last time I went trough that pain .
