The zaps are a mystery to me though everyone talks about them. I felt more like the insensibility and delirium one gets with fever.

I would agree that is a better description if the brain feeling. Its extremely irritating. Icould tolerate so much better without that one symptom.

I haven't gotten any zaps over the course of an 8 week taper (off completely for last two weeks)....but I definitely have brain fog and a host of other issues....but nothing I can't get past - especially with my lifetime supply of icepacks to sleep with.
