Hi there,
Can anyone tell me if there is a common cause for having adrenaline rushes whilst falling asleep? They started happening a few nights ago and I haven't slept properly since. They can persist for hours, until finally I might get off to sleep and get a couple of hours at most.
Are the rushes of themselves dangerous? I am now starting to worry about having them, a vicious cycle has started. It seems my mind is afraid to let me sleep and wakes me with a rush whenever I try to. How long can someone go with very little sleep?
Does anyone who has had these know how to get rid of them? Is it adrenaline/cortisol or the just the feeling of a hormone release? I do suffer with anxiety but this is a completely new thing.
Many thanks in advance for any help or advice
