I can say without a doubt that i know EXACTLY how you feel!! I posted on someone elses thread this morning at 5 in the morning because i had the EXACT experience you had. I had this odd version of sleep when i fall asleep and cant seem to wake myself up and get paranoid about waking. I then awoke, had a sip of water. Then i was off... heart was pounding and at such an irratic rythem and power. I got changed being convinsed i was having a heart attack ready to goto the hospital, washed my face and it stopped and i calmed... So rediculously strange. So yes i know your pain have how horrifying it is. Believe it or not this forum is helping my a hell of a lot and ive only used it 2days now. Listening to other peoples stories is helping so much to come to terms with my anxiety and slowly am being perswaded that im not nuts.
