As I am about to fall asleep.... I get this odd feeling. My body feels like it gets a burst of energy, wakes me up and heart is racing.
It’s happens over and over again (hours) this finally I can fall asleep.
I am so tired. I just want to sleep normal.
Focus on something else take deep breaths... Lavender calm.the body and helps with sleep

If not already I would discuss this with your GP. If all proves ok hopefully it will be caused by Depression, Anxiety.
When we go to bed the body generally slows and the heart does the same, your body does not need as much blood when resting or sleeping
Try to use Mindfulness, Relaxation Technique and learn how to control your breathing. Both are explained on the web.
Sometimes if Anxious we can feel our body falling asleep, you need to understand your body and its functions. and hopefully you will become more at peace with your Anxiety and fears.
Talk to your GP and get your fears and anxiety sorted

I get what people call sleep starts. You can look them up may be the same thing. I get more the more anxiety I'm having. Anyway I do relaxation meditation before bed tans a bath with epsium salt in it. Helps. Don't freak out over them most people twich or feel like falling or zaps when sleeping we just are not always aware.
