Anybody have experience with exertion headaches? Apparently all I can do is take time off but I don't want to take a break from the gym, what am I supposed to do for 2 weeks? Just sit here and let my gains fade away?
i do, normally i try to understand which excercice gives me these headaches and i change it

I got exertion headaches really bad from pullups for a while.
In my case it was only pullups that did it, and I think it was because my form was shitty and I'd tense up my neck unnecessarily.
If you can determine a specific exercise is doing it I'd say ease off that one a bit and try to determine how you're triggering them.
Do you drink enough water?

They are caused by improper breathing. Don't hold your breath too long while exerting.

Bro do not listen to that fuckwit. Keep your shit tight and keep your breath in. That's not it. You gonna snap your shit getting all lose and letting your breath go.

Not getting enough oxygen is what causes my headaches. I also have sleep apnea so I sometimes wake up with headaches
i was getting them for a while and they started getting worse but then ironically i got hit by a car and had brain damage and once i recovered they never came back

Few bottles a week. Not almost a gallon of water a day.

YOU don't know what you're talking about. Holding your breath is bad.
You can still maintain core tension and exhale on the force exertion without losing core stability.
If you hold your breath you increase blood pressure.
