Do you have a panic attack and can’t sleep? What is a panic attack? Those that have had a panic attack describe it as a highly intense sense of anxiety or worry which overcomes them for no particular reason. Having a panic attack can last up to 30 minutes and start with a feeling of defensive uneasiness which is a sign that one is imminent and often occurs during normal situations. My mother was just sitting at home when she had a panic attack and thought she was having a heart attack as she experienced nausea, shortness of breath, sweating and heart palpitations. These symptoms can create further panic which intensifies the attack. People can suffer from panic attacks differently by their intensity and duration as well as with people who have an underlying mental or physical condition to those that are perfectly fine.

If you can’t sleep due to heart trouble it may be may be caused by the following conditions; anxiety, illness, high blood pressure, low blood pressure, an arrythmia, hyperthyroidism, heart failure and congestive heart failure. A new study found that heart failure and coronary heart disease in middle-aged and older men is linked to obstructive sleep apnea. When men suffer from obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) they are 58% more likely to develop heart trouble over eight years compared to those without OSA. The study at Boston University School of medicine monitored 1927 men and 2495 women over 40 years of age. All participants were free of heart disease at the start of the study.

I’ve often asked myself that very question. If you have children and work many parents get less sleep due to all the added stress in life just trying to pay the bills, getting the children to and from their daily activities and dealing with aging parents. Their sleep isn’t a priority because families have busy schedules and trying to get the children their right amount of sleep is more important than their own. So how much sleep do you really need?

My sister Rose suffers from insomnia and can’t sleep. She has tried many sleep remedies such as counting sheep, reading, warm milk, sleep music, self-hypnosis tapes and even over-the-counter sleep medication, but to no avail she lies in bed tossing and turning as her husband is snoring logs. She’ll call me late at night crying “I can’t sleep and I don’t know what to do.”
