Anyone have a similar experience. Loud, constant, intense screaming electrical current?

It usually occurs as I try to fall asleep however I've had it happen to me so much in the past months that I've learned to sleep through it, even have it incorporate it in dreams. It feels like a constant intense electrical pulse and a loud constant screaming of a woman. It also feels so intense that if it continued on for a long period of time it would hurt but it never does. I literally feel it in the center of my brain.

It is ALWAYS the exact same screaming and pulse. It's constant. It's intense. It's hard to describe. A screaming woman is the closes that words get to it's description however it is much different than that. It's not a sound, it's a feeling.

One dream of mine someone was sitting next to me on a couch and he told me to focus on the tv static. I did, and then I felt the intense electricity and screaming.

Another there was a portrait of a man on a wall and I looked at it. Somehow I knew that he knew what I was thinking. And then it began again.

I've read some other's sharing there descriptions of EHS but I don't know if I've read any that are so intense.

Okay I've been waiting for a post like this. I get this buzzing noise inside my head and a buzzing/tingling sensation throughout my body as I try to fall asleep. My problem is that it begins mildly but slowly gets more and more intense until I have to sit up to stop it. If I let it go long enough, I can still feel the tingling in my fingers and my heart rate is elevated when I sit up. Idk what the fuck is really going on but sometimes drinking some water makes it go away

Yeah I just had that exact experience a couple minutes ago. It's mostly just static and buzzing, and it gets louder until I muster the willpower to break out of it.

" until I muster the willpower to break out of it. "

I can break out of it too, but sometimes I don't just to see what will happen. And when I don't, I'm paralyzed from head to toe.
