I hate those things
In this economy?
it could be the shock of waking from a deep sleep with a shocking alarm gives you a blood pressure smash or something. maybe try a softer alarm method, like a light fades on, or a fan turns on etc. how terrible is your alarm?
or it could be you are thirsty or otherwise suddenly aware of an ongoing pain that you weren't conscious of while asleep. is your tongue sticky when you wake up?
OP is using the ‘ice pick jab to the temple’ alarm method.
The threshold for experiencing pain in response to a sound is 140 dB and your typical alarm would sound well below that, so this is a situation where a visit to the doctor wouldn't hurt!

Unless they have to set an alarm to get up in time, that part will hurt
Neck pain from sleeping funny causing a headache? I get that pretty often
Adulthood
A hangover
That can actually be a sign of sleep apnea.
If you have other symptoms you might want to check that out.
Hmm, I've heard that sensory overload can be physically painful for same people. Might be that, but I'm no doctor.
Are you autistic? Sometimes autistic people respond to stimuli differently than others and find it hard to articulate - maybe what you think of as pain is actually just a very intense response to this specific type of audio at a time when your body is at rest.
I got a very light tendency to sensory overload but to me it's not a pain, I respond to annoying sounds, and I am a little bit more sensitive and have a little bit stronger reactions to it. And when I get overloaded, my brain kinda shuts off, I can't reason, I get very angry and I can't properly communicate anymore.
Imagine someone is punching you randomly every minute but you can't do anything about it. You start getting irrational. That's the exact feeling.
What I'm saying is, what OP's describing is very different and they should definitely see a doctor about it, because even for a sensory condition it doesn't sound normal.
That is exactly what it's like for me. For me I find it worse with dissonant sounds. I can be in a loud city without problems because it's almost white noise I can tune out. But if it's annoying sounds or a lot of different sounds it's like a stimulus overload and my brain shuts down and I get irrational and angry.
I finally started recognizing it's something I do, so I can at least alert someone I'm with that I'm overloaded so give me a moment (preferably away from the stimulus) and I'll be useless until it passes.
Hey. You're describing me.
There is a certain unpleasantness about being snapped out of a deep sleep by a sudden stimulus.
It can be kind of mentally painful with a slight brief headache I guess, but probably more anger-inducing.
Would you happen to sleep on the top bunk in a room with a low ceiling?
I've never experienced this or heard of this. Has it been like this your whole life or recently started? Either way you'll want to see a doctor, especially if it only recently began.
It’s definitely a brain worm. Source: Am a brain worm doctor. I also practice bird law.

I get nauseous sometimes, but no head pain.
I've recently learned that I had a constant headache for most of my life. Chronically plugged sinuses did that. Whenever the headache got worse than usual, I would not feel a headache, I would feel that head pain as nausea.
Doctor. Now.
It's definitely not a me thing so it might be a you thing, does drinking water help? Maybe you should ask your doctor about it.
