My frontal lobe feels like it's being squeezed. Does anyone have troubles with brain compression or any sort of brain discomfort?

Yeah....lots of it. It would take me pages to describe the various different ways my head has pain. Ice pick, sinus, tension, stress, migraines.....they all feel different and all hurt. My brain often throbs like a heartbeat and feels like it's swelling and will make my head explode. Feels like too much blood is flowing into my head. Right now it's my eyes that hurt.....terrible pain in and behind my eyes. They feel diseased. My doctor says it's a form of headache but I don't think so. I'm sorry you suffer also. Pain sucks.

Hey Elsa sorry you are suffering from this as well. I wonder if it's med related? I often have to remind myself that if I didn't feel this mental pain then I'd actually be "normal" right. So how can we get rid of or live with this feeling of anguish?

Mine started before taking meds so I know that is not "my" reason. The only real thing that helps when it gets really bad is putting my head in hot water and then getting to sleep. I hope you find something helpful for you. (((Hugs)))

Yeah I struggle with sleep sometimes and recently had to start taking seroquel for sleep. But I am going to try and get on something better cause I'm having bad side effects from it. Thanks for you replies.

I should buy stock in whatever company makes BC. I get headaches in what seem like random places. Last night I had pins and needles in my scalp but it felt like they were on both sides of my skull. Some of these things I wonder about being common in the general population, but they don't have a reason to pay as much attention.

I get headaches where it feels like somebody is drilling spikes up through my back upper teeth and into my head. I'm glad it doesn't happen more often because its excruciating.

I feel tension in the back of my head during my worst episodes.
