Hey guys,
I have been struggling with GAD/OCD for years.
For the past few nights I have been experiencing these weird issues though - every time I am about to fall asleep, I have a hypnic jerk (like a twitch), which gets me awake. It happens for HOURS, and sometimes is not just a twitch, but more like a weird sudden awake.
Of course, I freak out about this, which I think makes things even worse. I only fall asleep after hours of struggling, around 5:00 AM.
Has anyone else experienced this? Is there any way to overcome this?
Thanks a lot
