The funny reason why you twitch in your sleep

I’ve had a twitching problem recently in my sleep. I can’t get a good nights sleep because I wake up twitching so I went to the doctor last week.

He explained something to me.

When you lay down and relax after a long day, your breathing slows. Your body stops moving. Your heart rate drops and you start to fall asleep.

Your body on the other hand is like “wait..what just happened... am I DEAD?” Twitch*

“I think I might BE DEAD WE HAVE TO CHECK”

*twitch twitch*

“Okay I think it’s okay. I’m not dead because I can move”.

So I’m twitching like this because my body is making sure it’s not dead. And it will do it hours into sleep

“SHIT ITS BEEN TOO LONG. WHY HAVE I NOT MOVED. IM DEAD”

*twitch

“Okay okay good” 😂😂😂

I was given sleeping pills to calm my body down so I can get a good nights sleep and Im sleeping like a baby

But just so you know if this happens to you, your body just thinks it died and has to check lol
