So whenever i'm quite stoned (usually after just smoking) sometimes i get really really sleepy and just go lay down. As i start to drift off to sleep (i'd say about 5 secs after losing consciousness) i'll suddenly jolt awake and feel as if i had stopped breathing (i have no idea what really happens cuz i'm stoned at the time but i figure i just drift off to sleep past the point of consciousness.) I then will try to focus on breathing but eventually i'll drift off to sleep and it'll happen again. Immediately when i wake up it seems as if i was just full on tripping as i'll remember some sort of strong visuals. Eventually I'll completely fall asleep and wake up in the morning feeling great. Does anyone else ever experience this and does anyone know what exactly may be happening?

Generally this doesn't happen as I like to stay awake and enjoy my high but sometimes i get so sleepy that i don't want to do anything except sleep. This happened to me last night when i was so high i'd start slightly tripping when i closed my eyes and focused on the minor cevs i was getting. after a while i tried to sleep but went through the cycle previously mentioned for a while.
 
Hmm, that's strange, because that happens to me alll the time usually when I don't burn before bed. I'll jolt awake for a different reason everytime, sometimes it happens more than once or twice. With bud though I just fall straight asleep much easier, alot not aways/
 
^^ ^^ i agree

if i go to bed stoned, i wake up really fuzzy and with a slight to medium headache. probably the one time i actually NEED a cone, because if i dont have one that shit ruins my whole day. if i smoke up a little just after i wake up in that state it fixes me right up tho.

you may be having a dream where something sudden happens
i had a dream where i fell off a scooter and i jolted awake

if you dont remember your dreams you may just be forgetting them, i dunno
 
yeah its just weird cuz it happens like immediately after i fell like i fall asleep so i don't see how i could be already dreaming. i guess its safe to assume that i'm just falling asleep and fine but idk why i do it and it doesn't always happen either.

well you usually start to dream roughly 90 minutes after you fall asleep
sooo i dunno do you fall asleep with the tv on? or with loud roommates/family?
 
It's anxiety or maybe you are a light sleeper?

When I used to smoke there was no way I could sleep at all on it unless I was coming down and I had drank some beer but I'm a very light sleeper and when I've gone to bed drunk I would wake up suddenly later when the booze had worn off.
 
This has happened to me a few times. Once it was so bad that I had to get up and distract myself for a while before i felt i could go back to bed.

For this reason, i try to avoid going to bed really high.
 
I remember this one time I ate 15mgs of JWH-018 and started tripping out hardcore, so I went to sleep, woke up 6 hours later and it still seemed like it was peak of the trip... Shit was so intense, lasted the whole day after I woke up too, like 8-12 hours.
 
Reminds me of drifting off to sleep sober sometimes and occasionally snapping awake because you get that sudden free falling sensation right as you fall asleep.
