I put this in the sleep/dream thread too but i'm wondering if it is anxiety related.
Its nothing new, it comes and goes and I don't know what triggers it. But, I get very tired and decide to go to bed, thinking I will just fall asleep when I hit the pillow. I get in bed, toss and turn for about 30 minutes and finally drift to sleep. Then, I wake up what seems like an hour later, and it's only been 10 minutes. My body is trembling inside and my heartbeat feels like its going insane. I'm wide awake; my teeth hurt from grinding them. My head hurts. It's just intense and horrible. I've tested my blood pressure and pulse; both normal. Could this be like a sort of sleep anxiety? __________________ A majorly depressed, anxious and dependent, schizotypal hypomanic beautiful mess ...[just a rebel to the world with no place to go...  ]

I would get those. And usually soon after I fell asleep. Get out of bed. Dont just lay there and dwell on it. I like to pace when I get anxiety, helps with the adrenelain, do deep breathing etc. Nocturnal attacks are tough. Hang in there!

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
