No, there is no way to control it.
I've gotten in one by choice, but turning it off is hard to do, i wiggle around to get out of it by trying to move my back and legs, or i try to mumble something to get my own attention, if that makes sense.
I can be in one for around 30 seconds, i try not to panic too much but there's always that momment i get freaked out and have to come back.
But onece i come back and close my eyes again, it will instantly start happening again, so i try to at least make the obe happen several times in a row so i can learn to turn it on and off much easier.

I've had this as well. From very early as as child I would get a nauseous feeling in my stomach when I knew the buzzing head would come.
The best way I could describe it is being next to one of those electical generators, that same sort of electrical buzz only getting more and more intense and I would eventually pass out. I would have around one of these a year.
When i got these I would try and fight it by (it's really hard to describe) but by tensing my head/brain untill but still i collapsed. When i was around 17 I finally managed to stop it making my collapse and ever since then it hasn't happend again. Weird eh
I mentioned to people before and no-one believed me, even medical people. So to have actually found something on the web about it is really interesting.
I've never taken medication for anything, and I've never done a drug in my life. When I get this buzzing/electrical feeling in my head, its usually if I think about something really hard. Basically I don't pay any attention to anything physical and try to figure certain things out. Usually this happens after a big test, or when I'm going to sleep and think about science and space. Talked to people about it, but they all think I'm crazy or faking it. It's like I can actually feel the electric sparks that occur when the brain thinks. Hopefully someone else feels this when thinking, and I'm not just crazy lol.
I am on lithium and notice when my levels are low I get this all the time I just take an extra dose and it goes away I have never mentioned this to my doctor because he always acts like I am crazy anyway Glad to know I am not alone
I have been having electrical buzzes in my brain just before drifting off to sleep. I get one buzz, and that's it.....I sleep well though.
I am 65 and this has been occurring for a year or so. I am in excellent health otherwise, and have just accepted it as part of life....I am not on any medications either. It doesn't happen during the day at all. When I asked my family doctor, he wasn't very familiar with it and did mention tinnitus, but I don't think I have that issue at all. If it worsens I will consult a Neurologist. Thank you for your posts and for listening.:-|
I get these two. I live by power lines ,anyone else? I had the EMF levels checked in my home. They said they were normal. However, when a reading was done across the street they were considerably lower. I am concerned as well.
I have these burst of electrical activity in my head too which give a low buzzing sound and vibrate up through my head last for a few hours sometimes all day don't know what it is, I don't think it is tinnitus although that is what the doctors put it down to best to see a neurologist x
I know EXACTLY how you feel- I even went and saw my gp about it and she just gave me this weird blank look.
For some reason it does not scare me - I am just intrugued as to what it is. They seem to be happening more and more now.
99% of the time - it is fine, over and done with before you know it. But I did have one a while back that HURT LIKE HELL!!!.... nearly ended up in tears. It seemed to be the same short burst of electricity - but EXTREMELY powerful???
I have no idea what it is ...there is NO ringing in the ears etc. ...
My GP seems to be of very little help and I live in an extremely small rural village in Aust. ( no specialists or other help around here)
Can anyone advise what it might be??
That was indeed a thought I had .... sort of like the early stages of being able to "hear"the other side ???/
( like having my training wheels on )
