You need to find out what is causing the adrenaline rushes, if it is adrenaline.
What you are experiencing could be caused by a sleep disorder.
Best way to start looking at the possibilities of a sleep disorder is taking the sleep test on this site. Not perfect but can help point you in the right direction.

You should have a consult with a sleep specialist since the online test wasn't designed for what you are reporting. Only a sleep specialist with access to your medical history, current meds, and a quick physical, will be able to decide what the next step for diagnosis would be.
