I've got a case of the BRAIN ZAPS! I'm almost being knocked off my feet. My brain is being zapped continually by these freaky electrical brain surges. They emanate out my ears and eyeballs and also travel down to my chest and out my fingers and the back of my legs. When it is a really strong one I can feel it in the back of my throat and in my teeth.

I am not using allegories here...this is literally what I am experiencing. This has been going on for almost a week now...increasing in intensity as the days go on.

Yes folks! Welcome to the world of SSRI withdrawal. At least I am not alone...but is the worst still yet to come?

I love all these different terms people use to describe this phenomenon:

-Brain Surges
-Shockwaves
-Brain Zaps
-Electric Brain Shock
-Brain Tremors
-Head Zing
-Brain Jolts
-Woozy Head
-Physical Sensory Overload

Who knew such a phenomenon existed. I think people who pay good money to feel this way, but personally for the ones involved it is quite the hellish experience. It even happens in my dreams.

Anyways, here is an amusing music video: http://cu.convio.net/site/PageServer?pagename=Rx_song_download

or the words if you prefer:

The Drugs I Need

You’ve got a headache
And I’ve got some strange disease
Don’t worry about it
This pill will set your mind at ease

It’s called Progenitorivox
It’s made by SquabbMerlCo
It’s a life enhancing miracle
But there are some things you should know

It may cause agitation
Palpitations
Excessive salivation
Constipation
Male lactation
Rust colored urination
Hallucinations
Bad vibrations
Mild electric shock sensations
But it’s worth it
For the drugs I need

My disease may not be fatal
But I can ease my fears
By taking two twelve dollar pills
Each day for fifty years
They’ve spent billions to convince me
So now I realize
Progenitorivox
Beats diet and exercise!

I’ve got insurance
At least for now I do
And if I buy generic
It would cut my cost in two
But I want Progenitorivox!
‘cause I saw it on TV
Those families look so functional
That paisley pill’s for me

But it may cause
Depravation
Humiliation
Debtor’s prison and deportation
Dark depictions
Dire predictions
Life as seen in Dickens fiction
Empty pocket
Court dockets
May cause eyes to pop from sockets
But it’s worth it
For the drugs I need
But it’s worth it…
In Canada, they get this for a song!
But it’s worth it
For the drugs I need

The opinions expressed in this song are not necessarily those of SquabbMerlCo or its subsidiaries. Progenitorivox is not available, anywhere. Offer void in Wisconsin. Any resemblance to actual drugs, living or dead, is purely coincidental. Any unauthorized use of your judgment in the application of Progenitorivox is strictly prohibited. Progenitorivox may not be reproduced without the expressed written consent of Major League Baseball. Progenitorivox may cause drowsiness or restlessness in lab animals. Do not resume sexual activity while operating heavy machinery without consulting your physician. For erections lasting longer than four hours, insert your own joke here. If you experience psychotic episodes, you’re crazy. If death occurs, discontinue use of Progenitorivox immediately. If symptoms persist, consult your physician. All sales final. Batteries not included.

Hmmmm...if anyone has read this far: Apparently the best cure for all of this non-sense is a little sex, booze and mindless fun...so if anyone is up for a little party...lol!
