Hi everyone! After reading this thread, I also wonder if my depression,gad, and panic disorder could be related to something that happened to me. About 4 years ago, I was talking on the telephone, received about 3 or 4 very sharp jolts in my head. This happened to be pretty painful, but I thought it was just shocks I received from a short in the phone wire, and never went to any doc about it. After this happened to me, about 10 or 11 months I started having really bad panic attacks. Of course they freaked me out b/c I didnt know what they were. Given, I have always worried about really stupid things even as a child, but never had panic attacks, untill this happened. I have also been suffering from depression since this happened as well. I know this has nothing to do with lightning, but was wondering if maybe my problems could be related to the 3 or 4 very sharp jolts that I got right into my head? Any response would be appreciated. Also, I have had short term memory loss, but am not sure if it's related to the depression/anxiety, or the jolts I got. Thanks
Brandy
