jlhaslip 4 Report post Posted February 12, 2010 moved from Entertainment sub-forumI really think you need to discuss this issue with your family doctor. Make an appointment in the AM.It won't cost you anything.Are you under any stress at this time of your life? School? Job? relationship?How is your general health? Are you fit and active throughout the day?Any history of this in your family? Are you eating well? Any change in diet? When did you have your last cup of coffee?Lots of things that might be touching this experience off, as the above questions indicate.I hope you figure it out soon.

anwiii 17 Report post Posted February 12, 2010 yea, since it doesn 't happen all the time, it may be stress related. i remember certain periods of time when i was really stressed and my thoughts were on overload, hard to sleep anyway, when i did fall asleep, that second, i would catch myself because i would be holding my breath. when i wake up, i would let my breath out and try again it is a somewhat discomforting feeling and sometimes scarey. if it IS stress, i would suggest trying to clear your mind before going to sleep and thing of GOOD things only. things that relax you. also, if it's just stress, you might want to consider taking a medication that will help you put you to sleep.but yea, i would seriously consider talking to a doctor. i personally don't trust everything they say and sometimes they use people as guinae pigs, but they would know better than the average joe.
