When i sleep, theres at time that i suddenly woke up sitting but when i wanna sleep back to my pillow i felt like i wanna faint or something. why?

Nobody knows: No medical answer. This is unknown so far. A sleep study may be useful but will probably be normal unless you have more additional issues such as snoring or stop of breathing, and both are highly unlikely with your age. Therefore, relax and do not worry.
