Hypnic jerk, hate that shit
I kinda like it. Also like bedspins, for some reason I got them a alot as a child/teenager. Was like my own personal roller coaster ride every night. I rarely get them now :/
I didn't get them that often, but it's been many years now. Likewise, I found them quite enjoyable, an intriguing experience I wish I had experienced more often!
Never had this. Im always confused when people talk about it.
Imagine every muscle in your body lightly twitch all at the same time for a single instant and without warning. I'm not sure why it is associated with a falling sensation, but it doest make you think of that. Maybe there is a brief feeling weightlessness when it happens?
When it happens to me, I'm usually already dreaming and it comes along when I think I've tripped on something.
There is a brief moment of "I'm falling" when this happens to me, which evaporates immediately but I can remember it after it wakes me up.
I'd love to feel that again, if only once... Got lost over the years, last I remember having that was in my late 20s.
Happens to me when my feet are left hanging.
Happens to me every time I sleep on airplanes. Never happens otherwise. I tend to get some weird looks from the other passengers.
Followed up by waking up the next morning in sleep paralysis.
I'll get the awareness switch between unconscious and conscious states, but I don't equate it with "falling".
Am I the only one that has never experienced this
