I'm having these electric sensation zap in my head and it happens when I'm resting. Feels annoying and hope it's just stress. Anyone get them? Also have a headache😞

      Yeah like sometimes it just feels weird I can't explain it but I like to

      Sit in the bottom of the shower and let the water run over me for a long time and it makes me feel a little better

    Get a check up if you haven't had one. The mind is a very powerful thing! Their have been people in wheel chairs that there was nothing wrong with them! That's an example. But you can have all kinds of symptoms with An Anxiety disorder. Trust me been there with all the sensations. If you can think it , you can feel it.. If you have seen a Dr for physical don't worry. Meditation , groups like this to share, read on the subject , books . Calming things . So much that can be done and I have done these all. I go to a Phych Dr and I am on meds now. Celexa and klonopin. Never be ashamed of having to be on meds! This is an illness that sometimes requires meds to relax enough !! Those meds have my life back! But this is a lifetime disorder, and something can trigger it to act up! Mine is right now because of a fall and hitting my head and knocking myself out! So now my anxiety is trying to get the better of me again and going into health phobia! Over thinking !! We are good at it! But I am positive once I start healing , I will be back to feel better about things again. Be strong !!👍👍👍????
