Shaky Feeling While Lying in Bed

[krazycp]

When I am in bed, sometimes I get a shaky feeling. It feels like either the bed is shaking or my head is shaking. Usually this happend when I wake up in the early morning hours. I wake up and feel the shaking and then it goes away after a minute.

I do have anxiety which maybe is causing this.

Also, the first time I felt this was when we had a 5.6 earthquake here in Indiana. Since earthquakes are so rare, it freaked me out big time. Then at work the next day we had an aftershock and I felt that too. That night, when I laid down, I felt the shaking again but it wasn't from an earthquake. Now I get is every so often.

I'm wondering if somehow the earthquake set this off and now it's all in my head? Of maybe I am just over sensitive to these shaking feelings and I am picking up on the slightest vibrations?

Just from your intro, sounds like you are having night terror attacks.
Not uncommon.
After a few moments of falling asleep, your brain goes into REM and you dream your first dream segment. You will have several through the night, like a triple feature movie or whatnot.

Maybe when you wake, you still have feelings of this terror, and it affects you physically then.

I too wake up with what I call "tremors" .  They wake me up in the middle of the night sometimes and the first thing in the morning.  I've always associated mine with anxiety.
