Heart pounding: You could be stressed, and you could also be having some kind of heart arrhythmia that needs medical investigation. Had you been exercising just before laying down? Did you have a scary dream? It is possible to feel your heart beat when you're laying down, but pulse rate and intensity matter a lot. Please see your doctor about your concerns for proper exam ; diagnosis.

Tell somebody: You should tell your parents and get checked out. It could be stress, but, you should get checked out to make sure it is not a heart issue.

Heart pounding: This for your age of 15 is very common and is usually a symptom of stress from your daily life. Try to relax more, do meditations, less face book, more listen to soothing music, read uplifting books, and talk to your friends about how you feel.
