Am I dying?

These things that I have going on in my sleep. The jolting out of my sleep, I feel like someone knocked the wind out of me and I sometimes wake up gasping for air. It makes me feel so weird or bear death but my sleep study came back negative for sleep apnea. Do anybody have any suggestions, please?

Hi Kenya that happebed to me once flew up outta my sleep scared to death an heart pounding I dont know what causes that

This was me a month ago. These are called nocturnal panic attacks. I would jolt awake, feeling suddenly unable to breathe. But, after I stopped worrying about whether or not I could breathe and saw them more as a nuisance than a problem, they went away. I have not had them in like a month.
