Anyone else feels the same?

Sometimes I feel like I had a panic attack when I’m feeling sleepy or have a headache.

Like today especially I hadn’t eaten all day and finally got to eat something around 6 pm

Felt very tired and sleepy and had a headache due to my sinuses.

Once I take a nap or some Tylenol I feel much better.

It’s very confusing to explain.

Maybe I’m putting too much emphasis on my sleepiness and headache they might be triggers?

Hi Alfreddy7

I am the same, my sleep seems to dictate everything. I have headaches when I don’t get enough sleep. Recently I started wearing a eye mask and my sleeping hours have increased. I didn’t realise this helped until I put them eye mask in the wash and was up twisting and turning most of the night. I used to take Nytol blue pack and I was waking up in the night confused. I actually walked into the bedroom door! I stopped taking these. It’s starting to get better, try and calm your mined I know it’s ridiculously hard and if possible try the eye mask see if it helps. we are all so wonderfully unique what works for us individually no one knows. - I know it’s hard!

I’m thinking if you!

Yeah I feel like if a wave of sleepiness comes right after I eat it triggers my anxiety.Maybe cause that’s how my attacks initially started.

Thank you Diane for your kind words ❤️
