More than usual weird dreams.

these past few days… I apparently (according to my spouse) I jolt … you know like when you’re having the dream you’re falling.. except I’m not remembering it. I usually remember those dreams. Wake up … giggle … “just a dream” … I don’t remember these times though. I woke up to one him asking me what I’m dreaming that I keeps jolting and shaking the bed! Lol he said it literally feels like an earthquake! I’m literally laughing out loud writing that sentence because my spouse NEVER EVER comments. Yesternight, (10/6/22) again I actually do remember dreaming that I was being attacked and I was screaming! Again, my spouse said, what are you dreaming tonight?? Me: “omg I had a ugly dream that Jeff Dahmer was attacking me! What did I say!?” Spouse: well nothing you were just yelling ‘ahh.. ahhh!” Then I went bavk to sleep. I now almost 24 hours later don’t recall the dream. But my spouse said pretty much I jolted and was yelling. Anywho, I know dreams are weird but I’m getting a lil anxious about the jolting. I kinda remember them but not really. Anyone have insight? Similar experience & outcome? 👽✨👁️🔮

Hi Dee Dee00 When I was in the throws of my most overwhelming Anxiety,

i use to jolt forward in my sleep as well as when I would be sitting in a chair.

My nervous system was so tightly wound that the minute my body would try

to relax, I was awaken to what almost seemed like a spasm.

Of course like everything else with Anxiety, it eventually went away when I started

doing daily relaxation exercises. I don't remember at this point about them coinciding

with bad dreams but I'm sure I did at the time. :) xx

thanks sooooo much! I agree I been at a health peak with anxiety and that makes total sense! I didn’t even think it can possibly be related to anxiety but yes I think it is! I appreciate your insight.
