Having Trouble Sleeping?????

Posted by Defiant on December 22, 2004 at 07:57:22:

I'm not sure if this is going to make sense but here goes. Lately I am having trouble sleeping because about 10 minutes after I fall asleep I have the same dream where I can breath and collapse. I will then wake up and be aware that it was a dream but still can't breath for a few seconds. While all of this is happening I feel like a shock is going through my body specifically in my jaw and head.

After this happens I can't fall asleep for another hour or so and this is starting to affect my sleep because I don't even want to go to bed so this won't happen.

Any help or suggesitons would be appreciated.
