What makes a sneeze feel so good?

Sneezing feels good because it's releasing pressure -- it's an orgasm* of sort. \n\n*Orgasms are not only sexual for the dirty minds out there!

due to the sudden jerk you get while you sneeze, you automatically make you body tight and then suddenly it becomes loose. thus the blood pressure increases. \nSometimes people feely giddy due to a sudden and big sneeze. this is because, the brain cannot coincide with the blood pressure. thus it happens. but remember this is all just for quite a fraction of a second. \n\nHope it was clear enough.

Sneezing contracts a lot of the muscles in your face, including the ones controlling your eyelids.\n\nAs for the people answering with the popping eyeballs: LOL!

Do you mean "why do we close our eyes when we <sneeze>?"?\n\nWhat a wonderful way to phrase that question :-)\n\nYou can find some answers at these sites:

When you sneeze the air from your nostrils come out with great force (infact stronger than the strongest wind!).\n\nIt is said that if you sneeze with your eyes open, your eyeballs might pop out!! It may be possible as our eyeballs are just held in sockets and do not have supportive structures to hold them in place.\n\nWhen you try to hold back a sneeze, your eyes start watering a little bit.

Sneezing is a reflex action intended for you to relieve somtehing from your air ways.  If the reflex is caused by a strong agent (such as pepper) you can bet that thinking won´t help.  On the other hand, if the agent causing the reflex is not very strong, thinking about anything will make it stop.

Sneeze is an involuntary violent expiration of air through the nose and mouth. It results from stimulation of the nervous system in the nose, causing sudden contraction of the muscles of expiration. The stimulus can include any irritating factor in the nose—inflammation of the tissues as the result of a cold or infection, allergic irritants (hay fever), or irritating substances such as dust or pollutants in the air. An occasional sneeze usually has little significance. Repeated sneezing indicates that some condition of the nose or in the immediate atmosphere requires attention.

When you cough, sneeze, and even poop you bare down and create pressure. This pressure makes heart work a little harder causing pressure to build up in your arteries, kinda like high blood pressure.\n\nI hope that made sense.

Mucus, particulate matter that was floating in the air (dust, pollen, saw dust, etc.) probably macrophages, and white blood cells (which fight bad guys).  Of course some sneezes are wetter than other and might include saliva.  Lastly there is the air that is forcefully expelled.

You sneeze with your eyes open.

The most common belief is that your soul leaves the body for a short time, so by saying "bless you! (from "bless your soul") the person would be protected. It is also true that your heart stops when you sneeze. The "bless you" is also supposed to keep the devil from entering your throat when sneezing. In Romanian, for example, we say either "health" or "luck", we don't use the "bless you".

Not an expert, but it seems to be a kind of reflex action in a small percentage of people. If you experience the "sun sneeze" the same way that I do, it only occurs if I look skyward or toward the bright light of the sun.  If  I look away, I lose the urge to sneeze.  My best guess is that it may be a crossed wire of sorts in some people where an overload of the visual senses creates a reaction.  Since it is impossible to keep your eyes open during a sneeze, it could be that this reaction is the body's attempt to protect your eyes from exposure to the intense light.
