Just wondering if anyone else has experienced a sudden blackout feeling while trying to fall asleep? I am very overtired since my anxiety is preventing me sleeping.
My eyes were closed and my vision went very black as if a computer shutting off and I felt like I was fainting. I wasn’t asleep though as I was conscious of it happening and felt like I couldn’t open my eyes for a couple seconds. It was different to the slow process of falling asleep as it was very sudden and I felt as if I fainted then jolted awake
im just wondering if this is a type of hypnic jerk
lately I’ve been seeing bright flashes of light or strange scripts while falling asleep that suddenly jolt me awake, but never really a blackout like that. It was like although my vision is black when I close my eyes everything went super black but I was awake and conscious of it and it scared me
