Anyone get this?

[Samsal112]

I get this pulling sensation in my head when trying to sleep sometimes and that concerns me. I can't really describe it but I will try. When falling asleep, I get a weird head feeling that feels like my head is sinking into the pillow and there is a "pulling" sensation. It doesn't hurt but is really uncomfortable. Anyone know what it is? Should I get an MRI?

What does your doctor say. Does he recommend mri?

I haven't seen one. I am in PAWS (I guess?) from Ambien 2 and a half years ago, and I am not sure if this is from the drugs. I know a lot of members on here have also been on benzos, so I wanted to see if anyone else experiences this.

Sounds like random benzo withdrawal crap to me. I get all kinds of weird sensations.

i think i have something similar that sometimes happens to me? but for me it's more like my head kind of spins a bit (not like fully though idk how to explain) but kind of like how you described being "pulled" towards the pillow/sinking. i doesn't always happen though and idk i think it may have to do with how much i sleep or something. but i don't usually find it annoying or uncomfortable.

I went through PAWS fro Ativan use and it was awful. I had weird sensations and feelings all through my body so this may be what you're feeling. But if it's really bothersome mention it to your doctor.
