I've been feeling some weird things lately, and I'm a bit worried. Last night, my sister said I was experiencing jerks in my sleep. Today, I'm noticing that parts of my body seem to move involuntarily when I'm trying to fall asleep. Plus, I've barely slept more than 5 hours a night this past week. Is this something I should be concerned about? Could it be serious?
