> I was taking 10 or 20mg at night, can't recall. The brain zaps would always occur at the time of a nightmare. I figure the nightmare was indicitive of some sort of cholinergic/noradrenergic battle. I would wake up in a panic with the brain zaps. It was funny though, without the nightmare I would feel very depressed the next day. It was only on the days that I had the nightmare that I felt good the next day.

> LinkadgeHm, isn't that something? I have not seen any connection between my vivid dreams,zaps, and the next day depression...but it may be the answer though. Yes, the zap always leads to panic, I feel hot flashing through my head, spine, pulse racing, trying to flee fast...panic indicative as always. How would you describe brain zaps that you felt? When did they stop? I am a 45 female and my biological clock started ticking some time ago, I suppose doc felt it may have contributed to my GAD.
