Have you ever been awoken by your body shaking?

I just fell asleep about an hour ago. All of a sudden I awoke because I could feel my body shaking in my sleep. I thought, Am I having a seizure? (I've never had seizures though)
But as soon as I popped up to sit up, it stopped for the most part. But that has MAYBE only happened perhaps one other time. I don't recall feeling cold as I awoke. I think I might havw been dreaming.. so maybe anxiety? Like I said I think this happened one other time, but it wasn't as pronounced. But again it did stop within one minute of sitting up. Very weird.... anyone ever have this? I really don't think I was cold.I was however very thirsty. Dehydration ??
I did check my blood sugar, it was fine at 95.

Maybe it was a nightmare? Maybe god needed you to do something?

@AccursedAlexander3 I think I had been dreaming actually. I sometimes am worried when I fall asleep but not like anything so much that I can't fall asleep. Plus I think this has only occurred one other time. Like a year ago.. I remember my body shaking, and I awoke, and it stopped also when I sat up, back then as well. Perhaps it was a nightmare... thank you Alexander

@Coralmist what were you dreaming about? I hope you sleep well. Pleasant dreams when you go back to sleep.

@AccursedAlexander3 I can't recall the actual dream but I think I was dreaming. Hopefully it was that. Ty again🪻

Partial seizure? But I don’t think so, maybe a bad dream and it was scary and had you trembling.

Panic attack maybe? I have had a few of those at times. Perhaps take your blood pressure and see where you are at 😊

Have you ever fartled?

When you startle yourself with a fart?

@TheOneyouwerewarnedabout No, I don't believe so. Plus I was in a dead sleep. It woke me up, the shaking. It wasn't like out of control violent shaking, but just enough that it woke me up.

For me, it's pretty much the opposite.

I get this jiggle in my leg, then I feel sleepy.

Anxiety may be the culprit. Does a body bad, ya know. 🫤

Not shaking no. I have woken up suddenly after having dreams that I am swallowing and choking on something though, which is kinda scary and creepy.
