Waking up at 4am every day...what is this!?

[Ditapage]

For the past few weeks I wake up at 4am without fail, feeling shaky and panicky and can't fall back to sleep until I calm down. Sometimes I feel my heart pounding and out of breath. It's got to the point where I dread going to bed at night because I know how terrible I'm going to feel in the morning.

Anyone else? Is there a connection with anxiety and depression and 4am?

[GirlAfraid23]

I wake up at various times in the night, sometimes after very little sleep due to insomnia.

Yes there is a connection with early waking and depression.

Maybe try some rescue remedy/herbal sleeping tablets?
