Waking up from sleep (HELP).

[mz_rachel]

Does anyone get this? Waking up in a panic- confused, scared and can’t go back to sleep. What causes it and what helps.

[Hidden]

This can be caused by quite a few problems, personal concerns and depression, including Anxiety are all problematic

Are you worried about something in particular, In my case I suffer Pain and that can stop me or awaking me from sleep I use my Relaxation Techniques, These days they use MINDFULNESS Relaxation Technique that can sometimes help.

Have you discussed this with your GP

Thanks bob for replying. I’m always worried and nervous about something. On edge all the time. I’ll check out relaxation techniques. My obsession at the moment is thinking about my breathing.

[Hidden in reply to mz_rachel]

There are breathing techniques you can also try.

Look up on the web.

Amazon have books on Mindfulness, costs about £7.00
