How to know if you're head may suddenly explode
There is a rare medical condition known as Hyper-Cerebral Electrosis or
HCE. Basically, the brain of a highly intelligent person can overload
with electricity during concentration and literally explode. Like 'pop!'
Here's a few tips to see if you have HCE
- Does your head sometimes ache when you think too hard? (Head pain can
indicate overloaded brain circuits.)
- Do you ever hear a faint ringing or humming sound in your ears? (It could
be the sound of electricity in the skull cavity.)
- Do you sometimes find yourself unable to get a thought out of your head?
(This is a possible sign of too much electrical activity in the cerebral
cortex.)
- Do you spend more than five hours a day reading, balancing your checkbook,
or other thoughtful activity? (A common symptom of HCE is a
tendency to over-use the brain.)
- When you get angry or frustrated do you feel pressure in your temples?
(Friends of people who died of HCE say the victims often complained
of head pressure in times of strong emotion.)
- Do you ever overeat on ice cream, doughnuts and other sweets? (A craving
for sugar is typical of people with too much electrical pressure in the
cranium.)
- Do you tend to analyze yourself too much? (HCE sufferers are
often introspective, "over-thinking" their lives.)
Actually, having read these, I seem to have a lot of the symptoms...though
not as bad as I used to (collapsing to the ground with migraines...it was
diagnosed as excessive electrical activity. I'm a little freaked out right
now...)
But I've often noticed I'm a bit of a hypochondriac (crap. Look at the last
point...)
