karly, im sorry you are having a rough time at the moment. i have panic disorder with agoraphobia so i know only too well what you are going through.
so i'd like to share a few pointers with you.....lets call it 'panic 101'!!!!!!
firstly, even though you may think you are not triggering those feelings of panic....believe me you are.
panic can be triggered by a thought, image, feeling....anything really that you attach meaning to.
for you it is seems like your panic can be triggered by lying still, so anytime you lay still or are still, your body will automatically remember those panicky feelings and they will reappear.
one thing about us 'panickers' is that once we begin that cycle of panic our bodies become almost super sensitised to the least amount of stimulus....thats why we get agitated so quick, cant concentrate, or even queue!!!!
i know its easier said than done to tell you to 'ignore it' because thats not gonna happen!, so all i can tell you is to just allow those feelings to pass and try not to attach any feelings of fear or panic to it. let it just wash over you. or even try distraction....i often try to count back in 7's from one thousand. if you have to get up, find something else to do....this is to help block any unconscious links you may be making with the panic feelings.
try to establish a night time routine; take a hot bath and add a few drops of lavender oil, listen to some soothing music..........if you are anything like me then reading wont help because the mind wanders and you will end up reading the same line over and over again.
the key to breaking the panic cycle is to dispel the fear feelings and examine your thoughts around it.
it takes some time but it will get better....or you will get better at dealing with it. i have learnt the hard way.....panic will be as fierce as the power you give it. read up on 'panic/anxiety attacks'......in this instance knowledge really is power! and will help to demistify what is happening physiologically.
take care karly...i hope you get some peace of mind.....and most importantly rest.
feel free to pm me if you, im here if you need me.
