I keep getting static shocks

Anyone else?

for the last couple of weeks I've been getting loads of static shocks. Not just normal things like jumpers either.

This morning I kissed DS on top of his head and there got a shock on my lips! At about 11ish I turned on a tap and it gave me a shock. Door handles - shock. Hug DD shock. All with a proper loud clicky noise and DD swears she saw a spark when I touched the radiator the other day.

NO ONE else is getting them unless I am involved IYSWIM - so dp and dd could hug and nothing would happen.

Its nothing to do with the house because I get them outside. I don't thiknk its to do with my clothes because I change them daily anyway and it still happens.

Any explanation??? Any one else? Or am I being contacted from the afterlife by some evil spirit?? Or well ... what?

Not sure if it's been mentioned, I have started wearing those leggings, with the pockets in the side. And today I've had heaps of shocks when getting out of the car. Never been bothered before, I think it's the leggings?

I've been getting this a crazy amount recently. I've even turned on the tap and had a static shock from putting my fingers into the stream of water a couple of times. I didn't know that was even a thing.

Yes loads. I'm sure I'm evolving to have superhuman powers Grin

Not static shocks but my hair is static and looks like someone has rubbed my head with a balloon?
