It might be related to anxiety. I had this for about a year when I quit rec drugs back in the days. Always happened right when I was drifting off. It took a while for my brain to readjust.
I am not sure if that is your case also but advice to void all stimulants or actually any drugs and alcohol.
Good luck,
TT
Did you gain weight?
Does this happen while you're sleeping? If so that's certainly sleep apnea...typically it gets worse as you get heavier. I think the thread starter is saying he stops breathing before falling asleep, while he's still attempting to pass out.My wife swears i do the same thing! I been doin it for years. But mostly when im at my bigest which is roughly 230 @ 10%. Sometimes she gets so worried im not gonna wake up! Its crazy, but Ive noticed when I am lean I have less issues at higher body weight.
