Hello. For the past week, I have been waking up gasping for air, feeling confused, sweating, and feeling total despair. It causes me to jump out of the bed and run around the house for a moment before I realize what happened.

Usually, it happens in the morning after my husband leaves for work, but last night it happened after I had fallen asleep. My husband hadn't fallen asleep yet and grabbed me when I went to jump up and told me to calm down and breathe and talked me through it.

What can be done about these panic attacks? They usually leave me disoriented, confused, and scared. I truly feel like I can't breathe despite the fact that I am physically breathing. They are 100x worse than any daytime panic attack that I've had.
