Scared Snake!

So I read here on the forum that there IS a way to tell if your snake is asleep. Apparently the pupils droop down and slightly forward, making it look cross-eyed. If you wiggle your finger in front of its eyes, they should jerk upward as a defensive response. So my ultramel girl Paisley came out at night and I noticed she had been "resting" in the same spot for awhile. I wanted to test out my knew knowledge and she if she was asleep. As I came right up to her, I noticed her eyes were, indeed, drooping down and somewhat cross-eyed. So, I wiggled my finger in front of her. And I felt SO GUILTY as she jerked herself backward. The poor girl was definitely asleep. It was interesting, because from now on I will know by looking at her if she is asleep, but I will never do that again. :poke:
 
I need help please?

I do not know what has happened to My corn,Yesterday all of a sudden she went into like a freak mode, She was rolling a round and biting every where, Almost like She was fighting for Her life against a predator. She finally stopped and laid there for about a hour w/ Her mouth open. Now her mouth is closed but like every hour or 2 she just starts freaking out again biting in the air , tank and lid.. It is almost like She lost Her sight. Has anyone heard of this or know what is wrong? I hate to see Her so scared and freaking out.. She is 5 y/o and a Butter Cornsnake.. Any help would be great.. Thank You..
