Anxiety at night

Posted by Scott on 9/22/2003, 3:38 pm

Hi, for nearly a year now i'v been havin terrible panic attacks and obviously i feel like,"why me?"!
For a while they died down but now i seem to be completely paranoid about everything in everyday life,so im always on edge wich makes my attacks come on an genereally making them worse.
But to the point im so scared of night time now because my mind is always over active fom day time worries that im never tired at the appropriate time for me to go to bed.
So as i lay in bed trying to get to sleep my anxiety kicks in and makes night-times hell for me.Or even if i do get to sleep i'll wake up in a state of terror and its really upsetting for me being only 18 i feel im so young for such fright and depression.
I just wanted to know is there anything i can do at night to take my mind off of the Panick and the heartbeating fast.
I need sleep because im getting so tired over it. Please help me as im used to living a happy life and for my life to change from happy to being depressed coz of this is upsetting and i just want to be normal.
Thnx
