Does anyone else get a weird buzzing/vibrating feeling in your head before going to sleep?

I've seen a similar post on here but it's not exact.

So I've had this happen to me since I can remember.

Every time I try and fall asleep I start feeling kind of like a wave of vibrations or buzzing going through my head, until it gets so intense it becomes like static. I can hear it ring through my ears as well. during this I'm paralyzed, but I'm fully aware of my surroundings and can still control my thought patterns and what not. I usually have to force myself to wake up and it takes a lot of energy out of me.

I've researched and have gotten sleep paralysis, anxiety attacks, the beginning of an outer body experience, brain zaps etc.

I've gotten anxiety attacks in my sleep before many times, and this is not a anxiety attack. for sleep paralysis, I wouldn't say that either. I feel like I'd be able to see things, as that seems to be a running theme for sleep paralysis but it's just static and vibrations I feel and hear. As for the outer body experience, I'm not that educated on the topic but I feel like that's a bit of a jump tbh. Unless it is?? Finally for brain zaps it states its kind of like a jolt , and although I guess how i feel is kind of similar I wouldn't say it's a jolt. It's more gradual. In fact, I can probably just lay in this vibrating state for a while if i wanted to tbh. it also states that brain zaps occur when someone stops taking a type of medication, I however am not on any medications.

anyways anyone ever feel this?
