A Panic Attack In Your Sleep

More times than I can count. It's horrific and exhausting mentally, emotionally, and physically. I hate having panic attacks, but having one in your sleep is worse because you're even more trapped.
 
Never happened to me but I can only imagine how scary it must be.

It's like having a panic attack while awake but paralyzing and sometimes even more frightening than if you weren't asleep.
 
I suffer from bad nightmare, I have alot of problems with sleep, panic attacks, insomnia, hypnic jerks.
 
Yeah. I had a really bad panic attack. It was pretty recent too. I dreamed that I was defending myself and just when I got into this room, the guy came in and put a gun to my head. I had never been so freaked out. I woke with my anxiety going through the roof and sweating really bad thinking that he was about to end my life. I almost felt he was still there, it took me a few minutes to come to reality. It was actually one of the worse dreams I've had.
 
I've had bad nightmares but I wouldn't call them panic attacks. :|
