PANIC ATTACK DURING SLEEP!?!?

>>34881878
I've been having panic attacks on the daily for the last month anon(I've had panic disorder for 3 years but it's getting real bad), you're not alone and it's completely shit. My panic attacks always mirror symptoms of a heart attack and I always feel deathly terrified.
But the most important thing you can do is remind yourself you aren't dying, you're just doing through a misfire of adrenaline. It's just gotta run its course. Breathing through your belly can help.

Sleeping too hot is a sure thing to give you nightmares.

god damn it truly is shit of the worst kind. I've had some bad episodes in life, a few tough accidents too, but nothing feels like this. just brutal. I'd say the most uncomfortable aspect of it is this super strong feeling of being alone. Like being trapped in hell. Your brain makes it all so real. What a torture. I don't think I could ever 'learn' to cope with something like that. Reminds me of Batman, that scarecrow fear toxin.

Luvian Ben Neng (or Luvian Lee). She will blow your mind if you like Chinese plastic crap models or have a vampire fang fetish like me. Look forward to tons of ass and feet.

>Also did you dream about something scary?
Not that I remember. The actual waking up part WAS the nightmare. It's hard to believe without experiencing it. You don't actively recognise yourself as 'awake', because your brain is 99% occupied with being scared. It just slowly fades away with every breath, leaving you in a limbo world where you don't know if you are dreaming or not.

Panic attacks while sleeping can happen, however, the choking sensation sounds more like it could be due to sleeping on your back, silent reflux or sleep apnea. Have you had a sleep stidy before?

>Have you had a sleep stidy before?
No. I've just been short on breath recently. Had a bit of a bad lower back from overdoing it in the gym and the pain radiated up to my ribcage, which made it hard to breathe and lay on the side.
