This is quite possibly TMI. I have tried to cut down on the TMI-ness, but this is the most hilarious and crippling thing ever to exist. Nothing disgusting, just the kind of thing Jim Kirk would get.
So, headaches were still fucking with me (are still fucking with me, I'm on paracetamol now, but it's still there) so I went to the doctors.
I explained that I got them when I was exercising, when I was jumping around, when I was doing anything vaguely athletic, but also when I was writing. The doctor frowned and checked my eyes, but I had an eye test about a month ago, always wear my glasses, and the symptoms I described (heavy onset straight away, no gradual build, just a sudden crippling AHHH OH GOD PAIN /_\) didn't correlate with my eyes being strained by my laptop or lecture notes.
So, the doctor then asked whether I exercised a lot. I said, probably yeah, and more regularly than usual since lent. She then nodded and told me that muscle contraction or blood flow alteration can cause headaches, and gave me some paracetamol, etc, with the instruction to exercise less. All fine, yeah?
But me, with my inquisitive mind and because I can't let sleeping dogs lie, asked her:
"But, doctor, why do I get these when I write?"
The doctor shrugged and suggested some theories, but then said something quite interesting.
She told me that, because first year undergraduates are usually doing the naughty more than they often did before coming to university, the idea of
benign sex headaches was the first thing she jumped too, but dismissed after I told her I wasn't in a relationship. Apparently, increased blood flood due to being... you know... can cause headaches.
And that's when it hit me.
...What is the only thing I write?

OHTHANKYOUDOCTOR, IWILLBEGOINGNOW. BYE.
Now I've looked them up and, oh dear god, I think I'm medically incapable of writing long, dirty fic because of a possible BRAIN HAEMORRHAGE if I do. I think Chulu has physically harmed me. I just tried a little kinkmeme fic, but I got to the dirty and my head started to pound like nothing else.
The doctor said to restrain from exercising for two weeks, and the internet says around about the same amount of time for sex headaches.
BUT SERIOUSLY
WHY ME, GOD
WHY
DON'T TAKE THIS FROM ME
AHHHH.
AHHHH
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.
STILL SCREAMING HERE, THIS IS WHAT I DO, I CAN'T... NOT DO THIS? WHAT? WHAT? WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK? TAKE MY LIMBS, DON'T TAKE MY PORN.
