Out of curiosity, what is it that gets you before you go to sleep? What is running through your mind when you experience the panic attack? (I mean, not specifics, but in a general sense.)
- tarsinge 6y agoI think it’s general anxiety from the accumulated “thinking fatigue” during the day. There is a correlation with periods where I lacked a clear plan and spent too much time of the day in my thought planning the future. The process at sleep then is something like I feel tense -> I become hypersensible -> I notice each heartbeat accelerating -> maybe something is wrong -> ... Sometimes it was more sudden like waking up panicked in the middle of the night. Meditation helped because now I notice when I loose myself too much in my thought. The effect is not immediate but it makes a difference at the end of the day.
