Heart palpitations

I feel my heart slowing down so much as I am trying to sleep. I can't sleep because when I was falling asleep I suddenly got waken up by a sudden jerk. It scared me so much that triggered heart palpitations. I can't stop them. It's currently 2 am and the more time passes the more I am getting frustrated and it's getting worse. I am really annoyed and sleepy. I am trying to force my body to just go to sleep but my heart isn't letting me. As soon as I am about to sleep I feel like my heart just pulled me from my sleep. It's so frustrating! I just want to sleep.

Hello :-)

These are quite frightening when they happen

If you can try and do some deep breathing to help you relax and when they do keep happening and causing you to wake , tell yourself I know what this is my anxiety and deep breath again :-)

Once you let yourself know this is nothing to be frightened of they usually will stop

I do hope you get some rest :-)
