I looked for references on this subreddit but can’t find something quite like I experience. My anxiety has been abysmal this past year. I had insomnia, night terrors, twitches, palpitations, panic attacks, constant worrying, depression, etc…

There’s this thing that happens when I fall asleep (or try). I’ll lay there and close my eyes and it feels like my body is going to war all of a sudden. My eyes twitch a little accompanied by tiny white flashes, I get a jerk in my throat and back (that I anxiously thought was my heart but it’s my muscles it seems like), sometimes palpitations, and a weird feeling that my head is disappearing. Sounds unfortunate, yes I know. But DAE experience something similar?

Had a work up and nothing was found to be wrong with my heart, lungs, etc…

It’s really annoying. Going on low sleep makes the anxiety worse. I want to do s sleep study soon bc sometimes I wake up sweating, with a pounding heart, etc..(infrequent).
