I hate them, although it does show when you're approaching the Hypnagogic stage. |

I get those a lot as well. Don't worry, it is completely normal. |

Oh, I get those if I start dreaming when I'm not totally asleep. Usually something in my dream makes my muscles move and I jerk awake. Usually its punching or landing from a longer jump. |

Bollocks.
I always become aware just when it is about to happen but then can't remember what I was thinking/dreaming about, a few times I actually gave a short yell along with the jerk. |

- Are you an idiot?
- No sir, I'm a dreamer.
Once I had this HI of a huge bolder moving towards me, and my entire body jolted to the site in my bed |

I've also experienced this, though not very often; maybe one every month or couple of months. Typically I feel that either someone is about to touch me (usually my arm) and even if I know there's no malicious intent, I'll jerk my arm back and wake up. |

I do that loads. It's really scary because for a split second I feel like I'm falling. |

Yea I get that falling sensation every night, I'm usually tired to death when on the pc, and one moment im typing a forum post the next my eyes are closed and I get that falling feeling and I snap back into reality. I've learned to actually enjoy that falling feeling over time. |

I would rather die on my feet then to live on my knees.
I had another one of them just last night. I half dreamt i was running but a cliff came up so i jumped but by in my real body my legs just sprang out straight and i jumped awake. |

The hypnic jerks I used to have were of me being half asleep and "dreaming" that I was on a bike, I hit a bump, then fall off. I never really ever thought anything of those half dreams. |
