Can anyone else feel sensations in their brain? (lemmy.world)

Last time I checked there aren't nerve endings in our brain, so it should be impossible to feel sensations in my brain. However, at random times during my life, like seeing the plot twist in Fight Club for example, I've felt feelings in my brain. I just felt it again now while doing some intense introspection, and I just wanted to see if anyone else has this happen?

I've had migraines so yes. But also I had the 'brain zap' side-effects from antipsychotics too and that is very unnerving as it feels like an electric zap in your brain. It makes you wince and twitch.

0/10, wouldn't recommend.

Ahh Paxil withdrawals. Made me ruin a date with a girl I had a crush on for 5 years and finally got the balls to ask her out only to have brain zaps so bad I had to go home in complete embarrassment.

Mine was seroquel. Did not work as planned - made me want to sleep 18 hours a day and suicidal. Ended up losing my job which didn't improve my mood...

Once I stopped it and started lithium and it was like night and day.
