Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concern...

As per your complain leading or drooling of saliva from mouth can occur during sleeping commonly due to a Mouth breathing habit..
If you feel that you are throwing water to some height it is possible if you have a habit of heavy snoring..
A few other causes can be respiratory problems, acid reflux, sleep apnea etc..

Nothing to worry consult an ENT physician and get evaluated so that if there is any underlying cause for it, it can be ruled out and treated..

For mouth breathing habit you can do a simple remedy.
Paste a vertical strip of micropore tape over your closed lips before sleeping at night to prevent drooling and it will also enforce a habit of nasal breathing..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards..
