Does anyone else ever fall asleep and have some dream about whatever and suddenly your leg is injured or you move it suddenly in the dream like as if you are running and, in real life, your leg twists and/or jerks and you wake up and it aches like hell? does that happen to anyone else?
One night i saw a dream i was chased by a guy who was very scary!!! he had a tiny head and he was very fat then he killed me in my dream.... adn the i woke up dead... shit happens
it's happened to me a few times when i was extremely exhausted when trying to fall asleep. it's like my overworked brain had a small cache of electricity stored in the part that controlled my leg. i'd just be drifting into sleep when my leg would spasm and it would be so brisk of a kick i'd wake myself up. i guess as my brain was relaxing it let go of it's stored charge? but i have had dreams where i thought something was going to hit me and i raised my arms to defend myself. i woke up afterwards. just one of the many weird things our body does. ain't it great/interesting?
this is a result of your system shutting down. when you sleep all of your organs go into a kind of remission mode. when your leg does that it's your body telling itself that it's still alive and running. it's completely normal and it's just a function of your body.
Yeah, but my whole body jerks, just before I fall asleep I have a vivid half dream about falling and then yeah...
thats called a myoclonic twitch. EVERYONE gets those, all can deny, but they lie.
ROFL.
I had to sign up just to say that I thought of something completely different when I saw "Jerking Leg"
i had something close to dat a month ago i dreamed takin my gf to the beach and just havin a good time but then i dreamed i was pissin in a relaxin bathroom and looked through a wooden framed window and saw the colorful reflection and imagined pissin but not actually seein it and then i actually started pissin i was so freaked out
YEEEEAAAAHHHH!!!! The same thing happens to me every now an then. Like you have dream something and them I move in real life! But as for that pain when I wake up, no.
yeah but the dreams i have like that only happen when i first fall asleep. and its usually that i am walking down the stairs, then i slip.
Yes, it's not only normal, it's actually quite common. It's a condition called ... ahhh I can't remember the exact name but I learned about it in a Psychology class. What happens is your leg is shaking and jerking in your sleep and after a while, just as if you were excersizing at a gym, your leg gets sore and tired.
yeah, happens to me, like once i jumped out of the bed of a truck, and landed on my back (dont ask how that happened i dont know) and found myself awake moving as if i just fell onto my bed..i was freaked out but i got used to it.
YES< its called violent dreams, one time i had a dream i cut my self, then when i woke up i had a cut on my arm....
yes. sometimes with me i dream about getting chased by something, and then if it catches me or bites me, i usually wake up and i get a cramp or something, or i'll hit anyone of my head/arm/leg/toe on something really fucking hard
