There's been a lot of cold dry weather around, lately. And when you bring that already dry air into the house & warm it up- it REALLY dries out. And THAT'S where the static shocks come in. The BEST thing to do; is to introduce moisture into the air... Keep a pot of water boiling on the stove for a couple of hours a day...Or run a hot shower with the bathroom door open for 1/2 an hour a day... You also might try going to the store & buying some of that "Static Guard" stuff you spray on clothes to get the wrinkles out...-& spray it on the clothes you're wearing. Other than THAT, pray for a rain you can leave the doors open to for awhile...

Is the heat on in your home is it dry heat (no humidifier) and if you are wearing socks and walking on carpet or petting your pet you are constantly making a static charge and when you touch something you will get a shock, to try to combat this during the winter months humidify your surroundings or just deal.

The best way I have found to make is stop (also the clingy clothes) is to put a safety pin inside the hem on your garment. It really helps.

everything? surely not. but anyway, it's because of all the friction, you likely tred a lot of carpet or something.

I think it's because the weather is dry. Try lotion on your hands.
