Hello

I have and do have this often & they are harmless

There is no real explanation as such why this happens but most lightly it can be when they body is relaxing and just falling to sleep and the brain all of a sudden realizes it and jolts us awake giving this sensation which again usually happens more with people with anxiety as we are not very used to that relaxed feeling until we are falling asleep

Some others may have some other experiences but I hope at least you no you are not the only one that gets this happening

It could be caused by a medication you are on. I know this exact thing was happening to me when I was on lithium. I had been fine for a year on it before it started happening. I got Dr to change my meds and I'm fine now.
