I agree with the other posters that talk therapy can be really helpful, and life-changing in a positive way. It seems strange to think that just talking will help the anxiety when in the past you have used meds, but it really can work.

The body jerking as you go to sleep is totally normal. It is called a 'hypnic jerk'. Doctors don't know exactly what causes them, but some people think it is the body's transition from the waking world to sleep. You may see them more frequently if you don't have a regular sleep schedule.
It happens to me sometimes too, and it is nothing to worry about.
