I always get very easily startled, specially when I sleep, any noise (a telephone ringing, a voice, a dog barking) will send me into panic mode, making my heart beat very fast. Then this symptom is followed by fear of dying of damaging y heart every time I get startled.
For the last two weeks I had my mum in and out hospital and I have been very worried about her. Yesterday my daughter had surgery and we stayed in the hospital overnight. Last night I was extremely and my daughter fell sleep early. The nurse was in and out changing drips, and one of the times when she opened the door and walked in I got startled and because the room was dark I felt very disorientated and afraid, my heart was beating very fast I though I was going to have heart failure. I tried to calm down but then for the rest of the night I felt jittery and edgy the minute I started fallen sleep again I kept waking up startled with a very panicky feeling. I feel very alone with this problem, I would like to hear if any of you have experienced something like that or similar. Thanks.
