What are your nightmares about? Do you remember them the next day?

I do not. I generally try to find ways out of my bedroom. I don't recollect what exactly is happening. Can't breath, heart races. Then I come too and am sweating profusely.

What kind of meds are you on? Could they be the cause?

I lay in bed at night fearful of going to sleep because I know what's to come. I had a sever one last night where I could not go back to bed.

My husband suffers from these (he's 44) and has found them very upsetting. He says that when he has them he just needs to get out of bed and do something.
