Issue You awake to feel as though you canno't breathe.Don't recall having a dream of any sort.... Best Tip Sleep apnea. Seriously, there is a fairly good chance this isn't psychological. :) If you can afford it--and there are ways to get public aid to cover the costs--get a sleep survey done, and see if you end up with any breathing obstructions. It might be something as simple as the body position you sleep in, or whether or not you blew your nose before going to bed. Really. This problem is almost as common as snoring and not that hard to detect. Source(s): Try: http://www.google.com/ Keyword Search "Sleep Apnea" and/or "Breathing disturbances during sleep". Maybe you'll Feel Lucky too. :p If that doesn't do it....try the *same* keywords at *any* of the following: http://www.popsci.com/ http://www.sciam.com/ http://www.sciencenews.org/ Others That has happened, but I aspirated my own saliva can't say that I have its called sleep paralisis, everyone usually gets it sometime in thier life,(its when you awake partly but your body is still immobile and cant function Sleep on two pillows, a little propped up. If you don'[t have asthma or other respiratory problems, it sounds like you're anxious about something or someone. If you also can't move, you're likely experiencing sleep paralysis. During sleep, your brain paralyzes your body, so that you cannot act out your dreams. Sometimes you wake too quickly--before your body is operational again--and feel paralyzed or as though you're suffocating. It's a common phenomenon that's nothing to worry about, though it can be annoying while it lasts--which should be no longer than about a minute. If you know you are breathing fine while you sleep, don't worry about it. But you might want to check if you're experiencing sleep apnea. Sleep apnea is caused by not being able to breathe right while you're asleep, usually because your soft palate relaxes and closes your throat, and you have to wake up to get a proper breath. You can ask your doctor about various ways of keeping your breathing passages open. (For a start, those anti-snore strips you stick on your nose seem to reduce apnea.) |
