Why do i get zapping pains in my brain? they are not aches at all, but more like quick, sharp "zaps"?

Brain zaps: Are you withdrawing from some type of antidepressant? Ssri's can cause this kind of symptom if stopped suddenly. Please see your physician for evaluation of your concerns. Best wishes.
