sounds more like a panic attack. You can have those even though you’re not particularly feeling anxious. I’ve heard of many people suddenly waking up with a racing heart and trying to catch their breath. it’s related to anxiety . you could always talk to your doctor about it .

Sleep apnea is a possibility. I have sleep apnea and wear a CPAP which takes care of it.
so if that keeps happening, you could speak with a Doctor Who specializes in sleep disorders and possibly schedule a sleep test. that may or may not be what’s happening. but at least you could find out. that type of doctor could give you a pretty good idea of why this is happening.
they see patients all the time that experience the same thing. Take care
