I woke up with a race like feeling in my heart. It makes me feel uncomfortable so i wake up and stay up. I also check my pulse to see and my pulse seems normal.
Could it be a sleep position that's doing it?

Could be, you are more anxious in a morning, I always notice my heart feels like it’s racing or shivering sometimes in a morning when I wake up.
I can tell you from personal experience, try to get out of the habit of checking your pulse. I understand 100% it’s hard to stop at times or maybe all the time. However all that does it make yourself SO intuned that any little beat you may feel isn’t ‘normal’ will heighten your anxiety state. I was obsessed with my heart and heartbeat for months, and still am on occasion. You’re young, the chances are HIGHLY in your favor for having a strong great functioning heart
It could be your dreams even if you don't remember the dream when you wake up. It could also just be a pattern you are in. I often had anxiety so constantly that I could just feel it the second I woke up. I had a lot of work stress.so the second I was awake I was worries and thinking about work. Anyway, getting a fitbit helped so that I could see my heart rate and that it varies and see my resting rate etc. My pdoc didn't think it was a good idea but honestly it has helped me control my reactions to anxiety in a way. You could also do a Holter monitor test. They hook you up to a bunch of cords for a day bit you can still work or go to school. They watch you for 24 hours. That made me feel good and less worried once I had that completed.
