Causing a sense of excitement, exhilaration, or disorientation, as if one's mind or senses are overwhelmed by something powerful or intoxicating.

Where the word comes from

From Old English "heaðig," meaning having a head or headstrong, derived from "heafod" (head). The sense of "intoxicating" or "exhilarating" developed later, as things affecting the head were thought to cloud judgment or make one dizzy. Related to Old Frisian "hēdich" and Old Saxon "hōdig."
