People tell me it’s anxiety but sometimes I wondered if something else. I guess it makes sense considering I’ve been dealing with anxiety the past 3 years and am now on meds but I just don’t understand what is triggering this at night. I’m fine all day long and then this happens.
I get this too sometimes as I fall asleep or waking up in the night. My watch tracks my stress levels (fairly accurately I think) and I can see massive spikes in the night that coincide with R.E.M. sleep or when I’ve woken from a nightmare, so I think it’s a mixture of stress, anxiety and nightmares.
You definitely aren’t alone.
If you are already taking meds maybe you could speak to your T about the dose?
