Occasional Tension In My Head While I'm Asleep Posted: 11-16-07 10:46am
What could cause tension in my head when
I'm asleep?
It feels like the pressure when you go
underwater, starts as a mild feeling then
grows stronger fast and it peeks in a wild
pain outburst in my brain.
It doesn't awakes me though and it lasts
for a few seconds maybe.
I never experience it when I'm awake.
First I thought that I'm just dreaming it
but it feels real and keeps happening.

For how long this pressure occur?
Does it happen every night?
Does it happen at the beginning of your
sleep?
Are you experiencing night sweats?
Have you been told by your bed partner
that while sleeping you are gasping for
breath?

For how long this pressure occur? --> I
think it last for a few moments only.
Does it happen every night? --> No,
occasionally.
Does it happen at the beginning of your
sleep? --> I don't know.
Are you experiencing night sweats? -->
No.
Have you been told by your bed partner
that while sleeping you are gasping for
breath? --> My breath is fine.

Do you have some other sleep problems?
Are you getting enough sleep? Do you feel
alert and refreshed the following day?
Are you stressing too much?
Do you have other types of headaches
during the day?
How is your general health?
Excessive sleep or sleep deprivation are
triggering headaches during sleep.
Certain headache disorders are associated
with different patterns of sleep
disturbance.

That must be it, my sleeping habits are
very random, and I consume a lot of
coffe.
Thanks!

You are welcome!
Try to have good sleeping hygiene and see
if that works with tension headaches.
Best wishes!
