Is it normal to fall "out" of a dream?

  • Not sure what you mean precisely but sometimes when I am on the verge of sleeping or dreaming I feel like I am falling backwards (if I sleep on my back, that's when this happens) and then I wake up as if I fell and hit the bed. Like I tense every muscle in my body and at first I'm scared and then I realize what happened.

    Also a lot of times when I dream that I jump off a cliff or fly and for some reason whatever I was using to fly stops working and I fall, my stomach gets tingly and if I hit the ground most of my body gets very tingly and I usually wake up the moment I hit the ground

    • I'm pretty sure those are hypnic jerks, too. Mine don't happen when I'm falling asleep, though, only once I've been participating in a dream.
