what do you mean by "shocked"?

(from dictionary.com heh)

The sensation and muscular spasm caused by an electric current passing through the body or a body part?

Something that jars the mind or emotions as if with a violent unexpected blow?
The disturbance of function, equilibrium, or mental faculties caused by such a blow; violent agitation?
A severe offense to one's sense of propriety or decency; an outrage?

Well, water isn't a very good conductor of electricity, so I'd say minerals. That's interesting though, I've never heard that before. Not like I've been around for long enough.

That is interesting Debbie, because I too am charged.

I always thought it was because I worked in the semiconductor industry for too long and picked up something along the way (haha, like superpowers :). Being around all those chemicals and working with electrons and protons, figured some rubbed off on me :)

I always found it to be worse in the winter time when the air was drier. This was before raw, haven't noticed it as much after raw, but then again, I am not working in that environment anymore. I still can't wear polyester because it clings like heck to me.

I used to be able to put my hand next to one of those styrofoam coffee cups and physically move it without touching it. I guess I did have some power in me... I'm melting.........

If anyone has researched it, I would love to know.

Sorry, I should clarify....I seem to be electrically charged and get shocked when I touch metal or another person. After I run or exercise it happens more frequently. Maybe it's the friction. I have been zapping my friends and being zapped when touching metal throughout the day.

Those of us who experience the same thing understand exactly what you are talking about JR. Maybe you are just a supercharged kinda lady :)

Once again, if anyone out there knows why, please let us know.
