So I’ve been having severe anxiety for the last couple days but last night I had a panic attack when I was trying to sleep. I woke up today still feeling like I’m panicking my heart feels heavy, breathings hard and it’s terrible? Anyone ever have this?

Hello :-)

I have had anxiety years and what you describe is something I never had till these last 6 months and I am waking up from my sleep all the time feeling like it

It is dreadful as I am half a sleep and yet I fee this sensation n my chest feeling like a panic attack and I have to wake myself up and even get up to make it stop

I am sure it is that I am so anxious recently every day all day that I obviously am so anxious when going to bed that is causing it

I should take my own advise as I am hit and miss but try going on You tube and putting in Deep relaxation , lots come up and you will find one that suites you , do that before you go to bed and see if it helps :-)

Take Care x

My anxiety is out of control again at the moment. I'm falling to sleep then I'm getting an adrenaline rush because my body is in continually flight and fight mode. I feel like I'm being electrocuted in my stomach and my chest. This feeling makes me sit upright in bed, then I get anxiety attacks and the feelings of doom associated with it. I'm going to have to start doing my mindfulness again. Oh the joys of anxiety.
