I honestly felt that way every time I was hunger over and my anxiety kicked in. That basically the only times I had that feeling. I always woke up so I don't think it's anything to worry about. Hope you get better!

Oh, you would think if someone felt sleepy they would relish in that relaxed feeling. Not me, I try to fight it and immediately get panicky. I need to be in control and that feeling takes away the control I want. It usually happens when I'm relaxing watching tv and suddenly realize I'm drifting away. My body doesn't understand peace and calm and so anxiety comes to light. Oh dear, we don't get a break.
