woke up from nap -- weird feeling


21 years ago 0 22 logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo 0
cntexas, i get exactly that i have catnap in the afternoon and wake up feeling nervous and by heart beats so fast i think that it might be where its a bit of a shock to us when we wake up. Everything is a shock to me at the moment i am so sensitive to everything, if someone calls me and they are out of breath or something i automatically think that they are in danger and i get a shock feeling, like i am exited or something ( its a bit like that feeling when you are exuted to go on holiday or something)maybe it is adreneline?

after taking a little cat nap today. i awoke and felt very light headed and nervous. felt real weak. heart was beating a little fast but not that bad. just felt real weak. after walking around for a little bit i was fine. i don't know if i was startled or something. this happened last week as well when i was taking a little nap during the day. i just get nervous when it happens. does anyone else get this feeling?
