I have dreams where I stop breathing and when I wake up it feels like I actually!


Question: I have dreams where I stop breathing and when I wake up it feels like I actually stopped!?
When I go to sleep at night, I often have dreams where I am drowning, or some other thing that would render me incapable to breathe!. If I wake up from these dreams, I feel like I actually DID stop breathing!. My mom has been diagnosed with sleep apnea and, yeah!.!. I'm not sure if I have that, or if it's just the dream thats making me think that!. I also have extreme trouble getting to sleep!.
Any help!? :(Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Maybe you need a sleep steady done!.
They are really easy!. Just tell your normal MD what you think is going on!.
Tell him sleep apnea runs in your family and you think it might be happening to you!.
Your body will wake you up some so that you will breath again!.
Doing the over night study would not hurt!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

the only thing i can suggest, is to go to a doctor!. They'll diagnose you!. But in a way, that does sound like sleep apnea!.
but it also sounds like depression!.!.!.!. im not sure!. Ive had a few dreams like that, and i have a type of anxiety disorder!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

go to a health center that specializes in sleep disorders!. they will be able to find out what the problem is!. doesn't sound like it is an asthma attack!. could be sleep apnea!?Www@Answer-Health@Com
