I once had a very odd experience. It happened during a time when my pills were not regulated. I had been off of them for several days then back on again.
I take 150mg Wellbutrin and 40mg Adderall.
Early one morning I woke up. Or at least I thought I had woke up. I heard someone, a roommate, putting the dishes away in the kitchen and I told her that i could do that later because it was too early to do the dishes. When she turned around her face was sunken in so I knew it was a dream.
I woke up at this point. I literally felt like I was abuzz. My brain felt like it was buzzing it was very very strange. I could hear my heart beating very rapidly and I was in a cold sweat. I couldn't focus my eyes. I was awake I could see the ceiling but my eyes wouldn't stop moving like I was still experiencing REM. When I tried to move I couldn't I was paralyzed. I kept trying to sit up but I couldn't sit up. I couldn't move my arms and I was still overwhelmed by an incredible buzzing sensation that I could hear in my head. And I could feel behind my eyes.
Finally, I shot straight up in bed I felt completely exhausted like I had just used up all my strength fighting this thing that had overtaken me. My heart was beating so fast and I was sweating profusly. I layed there for the rest of the morning wondering what had just happened.
To this day I have no idea and my doctor didn't seem to offer me any explaination either. The only thing I can think it would be is maybe my mind had awoken from REM very rapidly and my body had not yet recieved the message. I wonder how much time had actually passed. I wonder what the buzzing sensation in my head was. It felt like electricity. And my eyes I couldn't control them either. So Strange.
Has anyone else ever experienced something like this?
