Does using Chinnkinni give anyone else a headache? :(

[Melody]

So earlier today I was feeling myself and made a wav using chinnkini and basically right after using it, it gave me like a mild/moderate migraine? I've noticed this with chinnkini in the past. I've only used it a handful of times in my life bu now thinking back to those times it's always aggravated my head for some strange reason. I am somehow now, just connecting these dots. I thought the first few times were just a coincidence or from some other extenuating triggers at the time but obviously it's just the powder that hurts me 

Granted, I do have chronic migraine, a headache disorder that inflames the nerves around the brain so that's definitely why I personally have this reaction to chinnkini. It must be like the irritation of the nasal passages or something that's obviously connected to the brain? Idk. Whatever. It's clearly a trigger for my condition. 

But anywayyy I was wondering if using it gives anyone else a headache other than me? Lol, maybe I'm not alone in this weird reaction 🤷‍♀️

I'm kind of sad it's the only thing that makes me sneeze really and obviously I'm not going to use it (or hardly ever use it) if it gives me pain. Big RIP. At least I got a good wav to share.

Update: using it caused a massive and very painful migraine that only just went away. Booooooo

I'm sorry, it sucks to find a great inducing tool only for it to give you pain.

right?? :// oh well, at least I know to avoid it now. Maybe one day I'll find the courage to give it to my bf and not let it go to waste

I have used Chhinkni quite frequently so I feel like I have a pretty good grasp of the side effects it causes me: (everyone's different so, take it with a pinch of salt (or chhinkni, your choice 😇)) 

* Light headaches. It almost doesn't feel like chhinkni's the cause but using it coincides with a headache a few hours later, almost every time. (ironically it claims to cure headaches, not cause them 😂) 

* Slight decrease of sense of smell (this had me paranoid because of uhm... What's going on in the world currently) 

* increased sensitivity for other stimuli in my nose for a while afterwards (such as, dust et cetera) 

* (This one is slightly scary but it doesn't seem to be harmful as far as I can tell) It gives me a very distinct cough with a metallic aftertaste the next day (ex. I use it on Friday, then the cough will set in on Saturday)

LOL. That's so interesting, relieved to know I'm not the only one. I've also noticed the cough thing, especially today. I think since I'm already susceptible to headaches the chinnkini really gives me a lot of pain (my head pain is still lingering and it's been like a day). I've had enough chronic pain to last me a lifetime so I think I'll won't be using it again sadly. I wonder if other inducing methods would cause the same reaction for me? I'm kinda thinking yes.

oh man that sucks! I have migraines too, and it usually just makes me a bit lightheaded and congested, or it dries my nose up to the point of bleeding. 

I've never experienced a migraine from it, but that is so crappy that you do !!

Now I feel bad for the ladies that agree to induce for me, never considered the extent of associated discomfort cited here as frequently occurring ummm conflicted

Yea, for example both me and my girlfriend haven't experienced any particular disconfort.

Maybe it depends also on how mutch of it you inhale, for example mi girlfriend just needs a slight touch of it to realy get going, and so she has absolutely no side effect.

I need a lot more of it so I will be a bit congested afterwards but nothing more.
