    That happens to me sometimes, I think it's because our brains are half awake half asleep. I certainly wouldn't worry about.

    yes I get that all the time. Nothing to worry about especially when you have anxiety. Sometimes anxiety makes the brain rapidfire weird thoughts that don’t make any sense.

    you’re gonna be OK❤

    When I am in a very anxious phase, this also happens to me.

    In my case, however, the thoughts are not necessarily weird, but rather guilty and blaming thoughts.

    In these phases it also happens that I have micro-dreams in which I am falling down a flight of stairs, which causes me to wake up immediately with a racing heart.
