[quote=Anonymous]I had this and I was as terrified as hell that I'd give away "big secrets" or act weird and crazy.

I went under for wisdom teeth through an iv. I was nervous and nearly in tears before hand, but they just stuck it in my arm and said "You'll feel a bit drowsy for the next thirty seconds before you fall asleep" and I said okay and it seemed like seconds later that the doctors said "You're all done". Like I said, I was super nervous about getting the whole thing done, but I was aware of what I was saying and what was going on. The best thing I can compare it to is being sleepy/groggy. You're sort of in this tired haze, but you know what's going on and you know what you're saying. You're tired and it sort of feels like you woke up from a long nap i the middle of the day. Even though you  don't feel as 100% alert as normal, you can still move and think normally and are aware of what's going on.. Honestly, once you wake up you'll probably just want to go back to sleep, and by the time you take that nap after waking up from the iv, the medicine will ware off.[/quote]
