> > This is going to sound very odd, but have any of you ever experienced sort of "tickling" or itching sensations on your skin, on different parts of your body. Not a tingling or numbness, but more like a tickling sensation of sorts. I suffer from anxiety/depression, and get psychosomatic symptoms during depressive episodes. Could this be anxiety-related?

> Sean.**********Sean, I have the same smell and "exploding head" experience as well. I thought I was the only one in this world that experienced stuff like that. Also I sometimes see images within common place things, like carpet or trees. It can be scary at dusk when I'm outside and see freaky images. Maybe my mind playing tricks on me?************katie
