does anyone else have panic attacks that wake you up while you sleep? I have been doing so much better about my PA's during the day but for the last 5 mos they have started while I sleep and they wake me up. I have the most difficult time trying to get back to sleep. Sometimes I am up from midnight on... no fluffy sheep for me :(
I am almost always in a mixed episode.. (which I dont exactly understand) so I cant really say it is because I am manic or something like that... ANYONE?

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
I'm going though a lot of anxiety and that was new to me. I am a depressive type of guy. I still have depression but recently the anxiety has been rearing it's ugly head.
I don't know what is going on, and my dang pdoc hasn't told me anything.
Are you dreaming when you wake up? Or is it just wake up and panic attack?
I am this way.I can't sleep more than an hour or so ,wake up feeling sick to my stomac with fear and heart palpitations.
Pdoc and I are trying diff meds to see what will work for me to get some sleep.Seraquel was GREAT for the sleeping...but then I was so druggy and hung over all day ,I couldn't funtion.
Good luck.Those night time anxiety attacks are the worst for me....it makes me wonder WTF is going on in my brain while it's supposed to be resting!!!?
