I can feel pain in my back and knees when I'm tired. That may be a tell that I'm getting old
I often have weird shakes when falling asleep, something like with epileptic seizure but only for a second
Sometimes I have this weird fucked up perception of scale or distance, laying in bed and it feels like the ceiling is like going far away. Also sometimes had this very anxious feeling of something like sheet of paper being crushed or something. Don't remember when these last happened but was really common when I was a kid
sometimes, i get leg cramps in the middle of sleep and have to stay awake to keep my leg at an angle so it doesnt hurt too much
You reminded me that when I was a kid I had a similar weird scale thing happen often, but it was incredibly difficult to describe. It was very unsettling and I never really told anyone. I felt like words in my head were unusually big or everything in my head was really intense and urgent, especially my inner voice. It's like it was shouting at me, but not as simple as just volume. It's something that's seemingly impossible to explain. It was like everything was expanding or growing or like I was thinking louder, or just ... Bigger. I used to get really freaked out by it. Then sometimes it would be the same but in reverse where everything confusingly was small, quiet, and felt almost delicate. Yeah. I dunno.
