I find that almost 90% of the time, if I'm on the edge of sleep or trying to sleep, my girlfriend will put a comforting arm around me, caress my shoulder, something sweet like that -- and these actions send me into a blind rage. Like, the don't-effing-touch-me kind. Obviously, this is NOT a good thing and I am NOT happy with this response, and I hate that she moves away from me or rolls over afterwards.
Has anyone else experienced this, and what was your solution (if any?). It's annoying and I want it to stop.
Also, side note, I am well. Classes suck, but my claim is at the rating board.

Have you told your girlfriend how hard this is for you and asked her not to do it? Explained that it is triggering?
I know when people touch me to try and wake me up it is triggering (what am I saying, it is triggering whenever people touch me). I am known to react first and think second. I always tell people to let me know if they are coming up behind me etc.
