Oww!! My temples, the hurt so bad!!! I must get the aspirin, but what will I do while it takes effect? Would a little wallbashing help a little?
AH!!! There it goes again!

Hot bath, maybe, and nap with a pillow over your head? Works for me sometimes--I'm sorry you're hurting!

Stub your toe. It will distract you from your headache.
Poor AoD. I lie in the dark with a buckwheat (slightly heavy) pillow over my temples/forehead when I get a headache. And I make sure I drink some water because I might have a headache due to dehydration.

The pain!!! Oh, the aspirin has done its job again, but I get headaches from time to time, so I'll keep the above in mind. I think it was the lights giving me something because my head seemed to calm down when I was not looking at any shiny stuff, or anything that gave off light for the matter. Thanks for the hug jexx. I appreciate it so much. Aspirins will only last for so long, so I'll make sure to get the chamomile boiling and the ice paks freezing.

3 step cure.
1. Stop staring at any kind of screen and switch over to lying down on a couch tryinging to relax.
2. To relax imagine your in a vat of cool crystal clear water and that your floating away, and imagine all the little butterflies fluttering around. Imagine that they're the headache and slowly you mush visualize that they're slowly disappearing away as one by one your muscles unknot. And you fall asleep.
3. failing all that plunge your head into ice cold water and it has to be ARTIC!

I also have a nasty headache. Unfortunately I'm at work, so a lot of these remedies are unavailable. No nice couch here and they'd probably get mad if I turned off the lights.

Try rubbing your feet. Headaches are usually in the area of the toes, according to reflexology. This usually helps both me and Fahim, but he's much more receptive to this than I am. I can rub his feet and have his headache go from a 6 to a 1 or 2 in less than a minute.
Alternately, there's another pressure point in the web between thumb and index finger. Find the spot that hurts, then squeeze.
Of course it would help if I could remember all this when I have a headache. My memory gets even worse then.
