Similar; must be night time panicky attacks; you need to learn some sort of relaxation techniques; before bed, have a nice bath; dont drink anything like tea or coffee close to bedtime either xx

That happens to me too when my anxiety is extra high, it's hard to fall asleep and sometimes I'll jolt awake like I stopped myself from dying in my sleep. That's the worst. It's so scary and annoying
