Anyone ever get this sensation of falling through the bed at night when they fall asleep, instantly waking you up in fear?
I get that, and these weird experiences where my mind forgets what my body is feeling, and I feel like my fingers are touching something alien, which also wakes me up.
Had a hell of a time sleeping these past few days.
Somebody told me it is a remnant of when we were apes and slept in trees. The sensation of falling makes you grip on tight so you don’t fall off the branch.
I have had the feeling that I was falling out of bed at night. I also punched things for no reason and heard voices that I respond to and they wake me up. I think it is somewhat normal, though the punching thing can be dangerous (if you punch your spouse, etc).
