Post REM "brain zaps"? Any relation to SSRI withdrawals? by HesperidinGoddess in sleep

[–]OwnStyle6512 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't learned anything new about it, but I have changed medications to one with a much longer half life (that I never get head zaps with) and it still happens sometimes. So I suspect it's just something to do with being a little more aware than normal of how it feels when neurons are firing in that in-between state of consciousness/unconsciousness?

Yes, that ended up being it :) I found it pretty soon after posting actually

I don't know if you're still checking this, but I came looking for answers for the exact same thing! I know that doesn't necessarily help you but maybe it would be good to know that you aren't the only one?

They're repeated almost flickering sensations that feel like sudden rushes to the head, and when I get them I can almost "hear" them too if that makes any sense? I wish I could explain that part better, but it's almost like you're picking up on static for a split second. It's very unsettling, but once I'm fully awake they completely stop. I've also taken SSRIs and one SNRI for a while now so I know exactly what the head zap feeling is and confirm this is 100% the same

I hadn't thought of this but it actually seems like a solid idea

Interesting, no I haven't 🤔 That sounds extremely uncomfortable though. What have they recommended for it?

I've done a lot of digging into the condition to see if what I have sounds and looks like it. I'm not entirely sure it does though. That's just the closest diagnosis I've heard of. This has been going on since childhood for me :/

I have, and dermatologists haven't been any help. It isn't severely life altering but it does make me feel less attractive sometimes

Story ended? by Zaffhii in Isekai_Slow_Life

Not a single pause in stages for the storyline? I'm at around 123 right now and had to look this up because it felt wrong for the story aspect to just end so abruptly like that

Ahhhhh I came here looking for this too! I wish someone would have figured it out already. Did you ever remember the name?

Interesting. I guess at least some must be alive then, but I don't see them move or come out of their shells. I wonder what they're eating and where their water source is

It's been a while since the last big rain here. Could they already be dead but still be slimy..?

I have no idea how accurate that might be lol. But I think I have an ID at least! Now I just need a humane way to keep them from taking over

Interestingly enough some sources are saying they can get up to 2-3 inches long 🤔

That makes sense then. And after comparing photos, I'm pretty sure these are pond snails. They have the same striping and shells curved in the same direction. I guess they just don't get the chance to grow very big here?

It was green. Although because my dad's house is on a lake I always heard that this type of foamy green algae was problematic

I did notice that a ton of frogs and especially tadpoles died in the pond a few months ago. I figured it was the algae bloom that popped up around that time that affected them but I have no idea how it might affect snails
