Earthquake
All of sudden 1 week back I was sleeping and I woke up because I felt my whole bed was shaking but when I sat to hold the bed there was no Earthquake. And I went back to sleep and felt again. Since that day when ever I sleep I'm having this Earthquake feeling. And I feel my legs are weak i feel minute twitches or not painful small muscle spasms. And with this I felt like my heart is not beating fast but I can hear it loud with its movement. Pulse rate is normal. I'm preparing for exam. I don't even do normal walking I just sit and study. Any blood test required like iron? Or is it psychiatry issue? Or do I really have heart or nerve problem?

Hi
Thanks for reaching out. Based on what you have mentioned I suggest you consult a psychiatrist and consult a psychologist for counselling sessions. It is necessary to determine what is causing you to have sensations like whole bed shaking. It could be due to anxiety, sleep deprivation, and you might be feeling exhausted. It is important to know if you are having negative thoughts. Consult a psychiatrist and explain about earthquake sensation and consult a psychologist for counselling sessions. With the help of a mental health professional you will be able to attain peace of mind and feel better..

I understand how unsettling this must be for you. The sensation of shaking, muscle twitches, and heightened awareness of your heartbeat can feel alarming, but they are often linked to stress, anxiety, or even physical factors like deficiencies. Since you’re preparing for an exam, mental strain and lack of movement could be contributing to these sensations.
Your symptoms—feeling like the bed is shaking, muscle twitches, and heart awareness—could be related to stress, anxiety, vitamin/mineral deficiencies (like iron, magnesium, or B12), or even mild nerve issues. It’s good that your pulse rate is normal, which reduces the likelihood of a serious heart problem, but a basic health check-up might help rule out any deficiencies.
Next Steps
Consider getting a blood test to check iron, vitamin B12, and magnesium levels.
• Try incorporating short walks or light stretching to improve circulation and reduce nerve-related sensations.
• If stress and anxiety seem to be worsening your symptoms, consider relaxation techniques like deep breathing or meditation.
• If these sensations persist or worsen, consulting a doctor (neurologist/cardiologist) would be a good idea for further evaluation.
Health Tips
Your symptoms may be anxiety-related, but it’s always best to rule out any medical causes. If you experience dizziness, fainting, or any severe weakness, seek medical attention immediately. Prioritizing both mental and physical well-being during exam preparation can make a big difference. You’re not alone in this—take care of yourself!

Hi...It's a kind of panic response. Your body is at rest for too long and your mind is constantly under stress due to exam, etc. Your mind is creating a panic response to move you from this state and do some activity. I don't see a psychiatry, heart, or nerve issue. But there is no harm in taking a consultation, if it continues beyond psychological treatment. The presenting symptoms falls under the domain of psychotherapy.
Next Steps
Consult a Psychologist.
CBT along with Interpersonal Guidance and Career Counselling is required.
