Hello everybody I'm new to this forum!! And have a couple questions!
Here it goes:
Last year around summer time I started waking up early and not going back to sleep yet was sleeping a good amount of hours and it wasn't a concern since it was not interfereing with daytime activities , it went on like that for months until November when it got worse.. I started having a really difficult time falling asleep or not sleeping at all..(I slept for 2 or 3 hours max that whole time) That lasted for about 1 month, and then when I could finally fall asleep still with difficulty, I started to wake up very frequently! And that's what brought me here! Now it is still a challenge to fall asleep but when I do I wake up every hour to two hours and fall back asleep to wake wake up again in one hour, a lot of the times I have noticed that I wake up from dreaming,not nightmares, but normal dreams. I don't wake up scared or disoriented, I just wake up normal. But I've been reading dr google a lot and have read that many people have nighttime seizures and never knew about them, could a seizure be a trigger to my many night time awakenings? I saw a neurologist who thinks this is anxiety but I've had anxiety issues before and they've never robbed of my sleep! I have an appt to see a sleep specialist in march, and that's why I'm posting here in the mean time to see if some one can relate to my issues or has words of wisdom!! Thank you very much..
