Re: HELP: A weird uncontrollable sensation that prevents me from sleeping at night
hello charles -
may I offer my opinion: I suggest you are suffering from an anxiety reaction relating to a subconcious fear of losing conciousness.
you say yourself:
1) "it's not psychological"
and
2) "It's a very scary experience"
...but for 1) I make the observation that this happens as you're falling asleep - i.e. when you're psychological state is changing - surely much more likely therefore that it IS physchological. That toxins/
parasites manifest at such a predictable time seems most unlikely.
...and for 2) - I note that this IS a pschyological condition, and that it can make you feel quite odd, and certainly feel like an "attack".
as to the underlying cause - well I don't know - and the answer may be buried deep in your subconcious - but I imagine it could be a "fear of letting go" type thing or even a "fear of death" thing... or maybe you do remember something that could cause you to be afraid of going to sleep....?
as for "fixing it" - dunno - sorry ;) - but maybe rebirthing (but I think that's the thing to do for everything these days)
note - I am not a doctor !
regards,
O.
