Hello everyone.. I would like to bring up the zapping sensations because they've been a bit of a problem for me and despite google research it's difficult to find out what they can be caused by. Research will sometimes suggest at worst Multiple Sclerosis but swim doesn't show other symptoms of that problem.
my drugs use is.. (over christmas holidays i had a semi binge and the biggest one swim has ever had) Kratom about 2-3 times a week, DXM 4-5 times a week, Alcohol 1 - 2 times a week, codeine 1 times a week, marijuana 2 - 3 times a week. That concludes my 2 week long drug use patterns in case anyone wants to know. Before that it was generally the same drugs but only once a week and Alcohol maybe twice a month.
The one time in the past sI experienced the zapping sensations was almost 2 years back when he last came off of SSRI's so he was always thought that serotonin may play a role. Swim also thinks that DXM could maybe be what causes it because DXM has an SSRI and when I do dxm they go away.. then return not long after 30 hours after having not used dxm.
but ANYWAY.. the reason I decided to post here was to get your guys experience with the zapping and under what conditions you had them and what you maybe thought caused/causes them etc.. Any thoughts are welcome!
NOTE: with me these zapping sensations can sometimes be short and hard to notice and sometimes longer and feel more disturbing.
NOTE2: Swim recently linked these zapping sensations to his sleep paralysis and if he's having zapping sensations before bed and he tries to get to sleep, it will put him into a sleep paralysis which is a disturbing like feeling where he cannot move and feels a rush of fear and a feeling of a presents! however this sleep paralysis/sleep seizure(what he has seems to feel like a combination of these two condition's and he had no idea why) goes back to when swim was 14 where he had them for the first time.
NOTE3: From 14 and up I would let's say having problems sleeping for about 2 weeks because of the paralysis, but then wouldn't have them for another 6 months so it's a coming and going thing every now and then for me..
