l only started to get anxious at the start of taking my meds but its settled down and never early morning mostly during the day. Does your Dr know? its worth talking to him about it, anxiety attacks can rock your day for a while and l'm sure yours can be controlled somehow.

If you are not worried over one specific thing, it could be generalized anxiety disorder. I hate it. It manifests itself differently in different people obviously, but from what you have described that is what I would say though I am no doctor mind ye. Just a concerned citizen mam. = ) Hugs.

I agree with talking to your doc about it. Maybe something new could help.

Another thought... is it happening every day or just days when you have certain things to do?

Sorry you're going through this, sounds really uncomfortable. Hope there is an answer for you soon.....

i do that too. its mostly on days that i have to go to work in the morning cause i hate my job. you are not alone!

:( sorry to hear you get it that bad.

when i get up in the morning i have about a thousand racing anxious thoughts and i need to focus on my breathing to calm myself into a state of somewhat normalcy. i woke up a couple hours for work, and am just starting to really kick the anxiety now.

AWE that sucks... I get anxiety like that, it's not just in the morning, I need a trigger. I feel your pain.

Maybe something happened at that time and it is not a good time for you?

My pdoc started me on a low dosage of Clonazepam (generic Klonopin). This thing that triggers me is my son getting up. He is has ADHD and Aspergers. He is very demanding and will usually yell for me in the morning. Brrrr! I'm always tellim him not to treat me that way. He is getting better about that.

Thank you my friends,

I always wake up anxious ! Its horrible so I take anti~anxiety meds in me as soon as I wake up. It really helps.

Just like everyone else, I had paralyzing anxiety and panic attacks every morning. Turns out it was from a combination of wrong meds and really bad stress at work. Maybe your doctor will be able to tweak your meds or add an anti-anxiety like xanax to help. It could be situational if you are having a lot of stress at work.

YES!!!! But I have anxiety about getting out of bed and mine comes around 9 in the morning. Lately I feel the worst in the morning and as the day goes on I feel better. Once I make myself get up and get going, I am fine. But the getting out of bed part is the hardest. I also get anxious when it's time to go to bed. I am an insomniac.

alot of us do...its alot of things...the thinking about your heath the illness anything...in the am ur heart beats faster from the heart at lower beats wile asleep..i gt this if i take even a 20 min nap durring the days..do the deep breathing..and think of good things..i know thats hard but im sure you can ..

sorry to hear about the crappy way you have to start your day. i think i'd be uptight w/all that waiting for me too.

i used to HATE waking up when i was severely depressed.

hope the Rx you've started helps.

hang tight, buddy. we're here for you

best luck

I have evening anxiety. I go to bed and off my brain goes -- planning the following day thinking of EVERYTHING that could possibly go wrong in the future. Nothing specific. It varies.

I do wake up in the morning anxious on occasion too. I would talk to your doc.

Thank you for your replies.

Hugs,

Jennifer

My son has ADHD as well and just dealing with that and the attitude in the morning from that I feel ya, then to put the asperbergers on top of that, I do not want to be in your shoes.
Is he on meds? I have found that giving my son his medicine while he is still asleep helps the mornings to go a little smoother. Takes that crazy wound up kid down a notch. Good luck!
