I would describe it as an uncomfortable throbbing sensation that makes me feel as though my brain were trying to squeeze itself as far away from the frost that is obviously growing into the bottom of my cranium as I chug back my frappuccino.
I do, however, have one friend who will exclaim, "IT HURTS SO GOOD!" when he gets a brain freeze. He also told me that if he could have a brain freeze last 5 minutes or more he would probably be on the ground in the fetal position in sheer pleasure. I don't understand him.
Whenever I get a brain freeze, I am among friends. Some friends just laugh at me while others whisper remedy tips. And then there's the friend I mentioned earlier who gets jealous.
I appreciate the remedy tips because I have developed a strategy for getting rid of brain freeze...
If I have a hot food or beverage nearby, instant relief is possible.
If I use my thumb to press on the roof of my mouth, relief comes in 3 seconds.
If I put my tongue on the roof of my mouth, relief is a 10 second process.
Ideally, I could just avoid getting a brain freeze altogether by not chugging frozen beverages.
