Im curious to know if any of you have been afflicted with this.
Since i can remember i have had a habbit of rocking in my sleep or rocking myself to sleep. I would lie on my back and rock myself to sleep. It was a great creativity tool(i would imagine great adventures and things when rocking-i stil can do this now when jumping on a trampoline) and it was a kind of comfort aid.
Now i am 17 and i no longer rock myself to sleep but insted i wake myself up in the night while rocking. It bugs the frack out of me.
Looking online i found a message bourd full of adults who have the same problem, are there nay adults here who have the same?
I wouldn’t say it’s a problem for me… but when I am extremely agitated or in a lot of pain and I can’t get to sleep… I just rock myself to sleep. I do this less and less now though… but it’s a great way to centre yourself.
Its not a ‘problem’ as in it hurts me or anything. But it does bug me because often its out of my control. i never do it volunterily(not since i was young) but it happens in my sleep now which causes me to wake up. Strange thing is it comes and goes, last night-nothing (that i remember) and i felt so much better when i woke up.Hope it lasts
