Does it follow you throughout the day or is it exclusively when you wake up each day? You're definitely in a good place to start learning a little more about anxiety, and meeting people who'll be able to relate and give the advice you need in order for your wellbeing to improve.

I'd suggest reading through different discussions here, google as much as you can and talk to as many people as you can. To those here included. You can drop me a line if you need. Hopefully learning more about it will get you closer to working out how to lessen the anxiety. It may go away completely with time, it may come back, or it may stick with you. But you'll have backup by being here. You're with good people.

Sometimes anxiety can hit us very suddenly and stick around for apparently no reason at all. Usually there are certain triggers, and waking seems to be yours for some reason. When you wake up try to take a moment to breathe, just in and out slowly and focus on that. Lavender oil has great calming qualities. There are natural homeopathic remedies you can look into as well. There are plenty of options.

I hope this helped a little bit.

Be well! x

Is there anymore detail you can possibly give for people to try to help?

You have specific markers to define your level of anxiety.

Use those to determine what your pattern of anxiety is like and go forward from there.

For a long time I woke up with an anxiety attack and had no idea why. I immediately took an Ativan before I even got out of bed. I was always wondering WHY it would happen when I awoke. Not even my doctors' could explain why. One morning I woke up and had no anxiety. For me, it just went away like it first showed up. Hugs GB

Morning anxiety sucks. You're just like "really, already? I haven't even done anything yet!" I guess it's just what they call "anticipatory anxiety". I hope you are on some medication for this, and if not, get it addressed immediately. I did. As soon as that started happening, I was all over getting medication for that. It's just not natural. I wish for the days when I would just wake up tired and slightly grumpy.

I have been experiencing this all day long recently and I don't know why.

I sometimes wake up with anxiety / panic. I couldn't understand why either. But I started noticing that I was dreaming when I woke up. I think that waking up with my heart beating fast was causing it.
