Does a link between headaches and psychic powers exist?

I’ve had some dreams that have actually come true…not lately, but in the past. I’ve been getting headaches more frequently now lately though, but I don’t know if it’s because of “psychic” ability or the car wreck I got in 6 months ago

None that I know of. . . do you? Sounds like you need to remember to drink more water.

@Tropical_Willie I just had a glass of water. In physical fights, in grade school, my headaches turn into a Zen like zone and I fight better. In university’s counselling sessions I would hold my head like PsyDuck and I have a massive headache.

I think that only happens to those who overly indulge in protofocusing.

Headaches are a way of showing mental effort in fictional media.

See: psychic nosebleeds

I don’t know of any specifically, except in fiction.

I don’t know anyone who doesn’t get headaches at all. I do think that sensitive (not necessarily psychic) people may tend to get more headaches. I think headaches tend to correspond to various types of strain. (I expect if I watched PsyDuck from Pokémon for even one hour, I might start to get a headache from trying to watch media I don’t relate to past my tolerance point.)

If you can abstain from going into psychic states, you could try abstaining for say two weeks, count the headaches, then spend two weeks doing psychic stuff and count the headaches. If your interest in the connection exceeds your aversion to the exercise, you could get more and more data on the correlation for you from repeating that sort of experiment. Of course, since headaches and psychic experiences both involve your head & nervous system, it’d be really hard to figure out what the exact cause is – even if they’re highly correlated statistically, you might just have trained yourself to do that. All I see that you could hope to possibly show is that there is not a relationship between them (if that’s the case).

But I do know several people who claim various psychic skills, and the most I hear is that it can be tiring for some people and not others. Some people get headaches when tired. Therefore my guess is some people may get headaches from too much psychic activity, while others don’t.

I have had headache all my life but no I don’t think I have any psychic power..

You have told us that you are being treated for schizophrenia. Did the events at the university occur before or after you were diagnosed as schizophrenic? For a skeptic like myself, schizophrenia could explain both the headaches and the belief in time travel.

You know that Psyduck is the only psychic pokémon that has headaches, right?
I did not see Mewto complain about migraine.

I’d say dehydration is a much more plausible explanation for a headache than psychic powers. Just ask anyone who’s had a hangover.

Yes, people who say they believe in psychic powers or magic around me will get a sudden headache from me trying to smack some sense into them.

If your headache goes away after drinking some water, then I’ll bet it was the dehydration.
Most people don’t know the following about signs of dehydration
We often mistake hunger for what is really thirst. We will especially crave sweets.
Dry lips.
Dry skin.
Bad dreams.
For me it can also lead to my kidneys aching if I’ve been drinking to much tea or any diuretic.
Severe stomach cramps and muscle cramps.
Constipation
And of course headaches.
Bad breath
To answer your question. No. I do not know anyone who claims to have psychic powers who gets head aches.

When they did brain scans on 2 psychic people in 2 different rooms(they had to practice telepathy), the pituitary gland was activated. They did not experience headaches.

@greatfullara Doesn’t really speak anything to the argument that psychic powers do exist considering just how many things that gland is responsible, especially when they only tested two people.
