Anxiety attacks

I am suffering from anxiety attacks - wake up at night with pounding heart and anxiety about something in my life - always something. Sometimes panic with just the feeling and not attached to a particular issue. Last few days it lasts into the morning and can't escape it. Sometimes it is in reaction to a dream I was having. Whatever the issue it seems overwhelming and overpowering.

Hello, I've been waking up like that lately. Like with this feeling of dread. I do my best to ignore it or I drink cold water. It helps.

Will give it a try - thanks for responding. Find if I get involved on the computer or housework it helps. Lots of middle of the night youtube before getting back to sleep.

I'm like that too. I try and watch funny videos or I put a movie on my phone just to hear the noise. It actually helps me.
