Does anyone else here have sleep panic attacks? Apparently there are two types... one where you're sleeping, and one where you wake up before. I've been having them since I was little, but didn't know what they were until tonight. It doesn't happen every night.. I would say it happens a few times a month. I wake up almost always an hour/hour and a half after I fell asleep, and I feel really warm, confused, scared. I sit up immidiately and I'm still half asleep. I feel disconnected from reality, and just generally terrified. I get out of bed and I walk around the house pacing around fast, very scared.. confused.. eventually as I begin to wake up more and more, I feel better and calm down, but it takes a very long time. It's terrifying, and like I said.. I didn't know what it was until tonight when I googled how it felt. When I was a kid, I would have then in the middle of the night and run around the house crying. Anyone else here have this?
