Haven't been able to sleep lately or when I do fall asleep I wake up a few hours later in a panic, has anyone else been experiencing this? All of this is new to me and looking for some advice.

Hi

I have been doing this for the past 3 years. It’s taken along time to except this. I wake In such a panic where I jump gasping for a breath. Like there is no oxygen. Take deep breaths ease your mind and tell your self it’s ok. Your going to be fine. Find some thing that helps you relax at bed time. Soft music. A book can take your mind off worrying about sleeping. It’s a horrible feeling. It will ease if you allow it.
