What I don't like is the feeling of trying to wake up after succumbing to sleep, I just don't want to wake up.<br /><br />I've not experienced a nocturnal panic attack and as day time ones can be utterly horrible, I do feel for you Anne, the worst I get is vivid dreams, often nightmares, I wake myself up by appearing to shout loudly, but I think I'm still dreaming as my husband never hears me, it seems loud enough in my subconscious though!AdeYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02049751295952869599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6995303660616425619.post-8513329544090715692010-11-24T19:03:00.848+11:002010-11-24T19:03:00.848+11:00I know what you mean and even recognising them for...I know what you mean and even recognising them for what they are doesn't make them any easier to deal with does it? I can't understand why I can be wide awake in a second when they happen whereas in the morning it takes me ages to surface! Guess it's back to ACCEPTANCE again here!<br /><br />JaneMarigold Jamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02895195019277206960noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6995303660616425619.post-6157204250571572492010-11-24T16:06:20.989+11:002010-11-24T16:06:20.989+11:00I don't know the answer to why but I have suff...I don't know the answer to why but I have suffered with them in the past. I didn't know what was happening and would beg my husband to just hold me. Being him, he just told me to go to the doctor and let him sleep. Eventually I realised what was going on and refused to let them beat me any more. I do know that panic attacks can be made up of any three of over thirty possible symptoms. Very tough because once you work out what is happening to you they can morph into a different set of symptoms. I have found for me that the most important thing is to hate them like they are horrible people and never let them get the better of me. It's good that you have learnt to deal with the sleeplessness.
