You're not the only one.. I get this too and it drives me NUTS!! It's especially bad in the winter time when the dry heat from the furnace is running at full blast. I get shocked when I touch my car door to close it after getting out of it and sometimes the shock is so severe that it sends a wave of electricity all the way up my arm. OUCH!! I have even noticed this to be a problem in the grocery store, again, mostly in the winter time and just about every time I touch a metal surface of any sort. I know I have to look like a complete a$$ reaching for a can of soup with the uttmost hesitation while wincing in anticipation of a potential electrocution! I've even gone to extremes and purchased a can of Static Gaurd from the laundry aisle to carry around with me in hopes that it would help but it didn't seem to do much good. The best advice I can give you is to run a humidifier in your home and/or office to keep the air from becoming too dry. You may also find it helpful to add dryer sheets or liquid fabric softner to your daily laundry routine. This should eliminate static in your clothing to some degree I hope this helps.

If it is very cold where you are now, there is not much you can do about it except just don't touch metal. You could try spraying the clothes you have on with a can of Static Guard spray, which usually works. But if it is very cold, it may not. Also you could purchase a humidifier for your home. This will moisten the dry air and alleviate static buildup in your home.

hair spray or try keeping a bounce dryer sheet in your pocket
