ive had many dreams where i die. i even had a dream god told me i was going to die soon. so i should watch out i guess. sometimes if i cant really fall asleep but start dreaming of things, your body actually reacts. for ex. i was thinking one night what it would be like to fall off a cliff. i envisioned the whole thing and when i saw myself hit the ground, my whole body shook like i actually fell off the cliff. that was pretty intense.
rem sleep is also addicting. i dunno about you guys, but i love waking up then going back to bed for like 15 minutes and have some trippy dreams. i could do this for 2 hrs and have many episodes. however this is very tiring on the brain and body. the rest of the day feels like a hangover |

that's pretty common. it's like all the electricity in your body synchronizes and goes off at the same time. usually feels like you just fell off of something. |

It's called hypnagogic myoclonus. |

The other option is obstructive apnea.
If one tends to have these "twitches" more than once per night (early in the sleep cycle) it is worth getting checked out for apnea.
It is NOT normal to have these twitches multiple times per night nor is it normal to have them deep in the sleep cycle (more than 45 minutes past initial sleep time).
Obstructive apnea can be deadly. If you think you may have such a problem please get checked out by your doctor. |

I have actually died in a dream, and to this day that dream bothers me.
The feeling you get when you die is something completely indescribable.
Anyway, I'm still alive, so obviously I don't believe it to be true. |

I was about to ask whether this was common or not...because this tends to happen multiple times a night for me...not everyday though. :/ |

| I know for a fact this is just a myth. I've "died" on many occasions in my dreams, and continued to dream after my "death". Enlightening experiences they were. |
