Who's awake

[mandshere2000]

Hi
Does anyone know why it happens where we fall asleep
then wake suddenly with anxiety, what could cause this and
my heart rate can be up to 112, I see a cardiologist next week
and I'm so worried that they will say somthing is wrong, I also
somtimes on waking are very breathless and find it hard to breathe
and can bring mucus of my chest and it feels like my lungs are full
of fluid. Manda

Early mornings and waking with panick is very common. At the moment I am dealing quite well with my anxiety, but still get the early morning attacks regularly.
Raised heart rate and breathing are most definitely anxiety symptoms, but of course you should get it checked out. Once you know there is nothing wrong then you can start to accept this is just anxiety. In fact you probably wake and then think something which starts the attack, but this is automatic and is so quick, it feels like the panic wakes you.
