Funny sensations when going to sleep
Posted , 8 users are following.
Hi everyone
I don't know if any of you have suffered with this :
When I go to bed I don't sleep but the horrible thing is hard to explain.
I have a swimming head,ears hissing,headache and when I start to relax I get horrible feelings like : frightening feeling in chest,I think I might of drifted off but it's a dream,not knowing what room I'm in for a bit,twitching muscles and an overall weird feeling. I can't just go to bed and not have these feelings.
I know it's vague.
I'm suffering with awful gerd too that keeps me awake.
Thanks

I had this when my symptoms were in full swing. It is to do with a change in your hormone levelscas you drift into sleep, I think progersterone, so is physical. It is terrifying I knoiw, but doesnt last long in the " journey" for want of a better description. I fiund slepping propped uo with pillows helped or even sleeping in a big comfy armcgair, upright! I cant explain why. Also you can learn to allow yourself to fall into the feeling and not to fight it. This helps with a lot of thise symptoms.
You will come through, there ius an end to it all. I am nearly out the otherside completely. It makes you a much stronger woman. Best of luck and much love to you xx

It was awful, I couldn't cope with the lack of sleep, so my doctor prescribed sleeping tablets, which helped alot, but she would not prescribe them for longer than a couple of months. She then put me on fluxotine (prozac), which I'm still on and these have completely erased the issue - I am sleeping again normally and my anxiety during the day has disappeared. I actually feel like a normal (ish) human being again!!

The newest thing is my chest going tight and the pit of my throat burns. I'm 3 weeks into HRT so hopefully they will kick in more now
