Static electricity
Sat, 12/08/2012 - 03:31Hello fellow friends and or doctors
I would like to ask a question on what you have experienced, and or if you have experienced static electricity within your body? Or, have you ever shocked anybody upon passing? There have been times where I will actually shock someone just by touching them. Sometimes I get shocked just by touching a knob or an object. My hair sometimes will react from the this as if it is static electrity and will appear to be weightless as it reacts to the the electrical shock. I was just wondering if any of you have experiened this?

Yes!!!! I have tons....tons of static electricity. I can touch almost anything besides glass and wood that responds back with a reaction to my body (any part but mainly fingers and toes) .The electrical shock I feel can result in a mild shock to on occasions a very very painful shock, like a small firecracker ignited in my hand that just went off. Those are few and far but have happened on quite a number of occasions. I try to avoid touching things unless they are safe like glass or wood or google static electricity in humans and neutralizing
