These reflexive responses are caused by blurred REM (dream) caused by waking up quickly. Essentially, your dreams/thoughts are momentarily transferred to your conscious mind and you act on those thoughts as if they were actually occurring. I dream about soccer sometimes and wake-up to painful kick at the wall :-).

It happens to the best of us. I think it is because they are so inactive during sleep, they need time to "wake up" just like we do!

maybe you are having an OBE (out of body experiance) You arent fully asleep when this happens.

If your pattern is that you get up ok, but then you start to lose energy in the morning, it might be you are having low blood sugar episodes.  I am a former hypoglycemic, now diabetic, up at 4:30 - no gym, no novels, but have to eat my protein based breakfast pretty quick or I start to fade.\n\nCheck out low blood sugar at www.hufa.org to see if it sounds like you.

I work in a sleep lab and I have seen this before, it is called sleep paralysis.  It is very normal and every night your body goes into a mini coma when in your deep rem sleep.  Sometimes you get up from rem too quick and your body has not recovered yet.  Maybe you took medications that made your rem sleep more dominant, or maybe your not sleeping long enough.  This problem usually is seen in older patients and patients on certain medications.

Could be caused by water retention. Don't drink too much water right before you go to sleep. Stack up up ur pillows so your head is placed higher than your feet.

Sometimes I need to get up for an appointment or something and if I understand why I'm getting woke up, I'm not crabby...otherwise, YES!

If you're really tired the next morning, that probably means you're not getting past that "dozing off" stage into the "deep sleep" stage where most of your mind's rejuvenating takes place.  If you're really hot, that's scary.  If this just started happening, maybe you just have a fever or something, but if it's been happening for a long time, you should see someone about it.

The reason you can't wake up early is that you're awake now.  You have to shift your sleep schedule so you get tired and go to sleep early.

Well you have to wake up first to be able to open your eyes I would think.

It could be due to your lifestyle.. i used to have the same problem. I went to the doctors and he just suggested exercise daily, eat healthier and try and cut out refined sugars. I got real good sleeps and woke up feeling awesome :)

Waking is process, not a single moment in time (unless we are awaken suddenly.) We gradually move into higher levels of wakefulness. By the time you open your eyes you are generally already "awake," so to answer your question, most people are awake before they open their eyes. That said, I did open my eyes once when I was still asleep. It was strange, I couldn't move but I could see my room. Waking from that was like breaking invisible shackles of paralysis, very unpleasant. Anyway, interesting question.

this is called sleep paralysis.  it happens when your mind wakes up faster than your body, and it is still stuck in sleep mode.. paralyzed so that you don't act out your dreams.  you will find this almsot always happens near the morning rather than earlier in the night, and you will usually be sleeping in a position with your back flat on the bed.    it is indeed scary, whenever this happens to me, i try screaming and am unable to, i also feel like i am suffocating sometimes because i try to breathe and it doesn't come regular
