Tension headches everyday is that normal & shooting pains in my head?

No: Daily "tension headaches" with associated "shooting pains in my head" is not normal. It can be benign, but not normal. Daily headaches should be discussed and treated by a doctor. Self-treatment can make the condition worse.
