Possessed?: Maybe you need to have an exorcism. When you say your body rises, all i can think of is the movie exorcist.

?question: Not sure of your exact question, but if your "body" feels it needs to be elevated (your upper body and head) when sleeping, you may have fluid in your lungs causing you to get s.O.B. If lying flat, etc.? Possibly re-phrace the question if you are asking about something else.
