I keep waking up thinking that im choking?!


Question: I keep waking up thinking that im choking.?
I have had this dream many and many of times, but choking on different objects.

It can be a bottle lid, 5p, bit of wood a Fly anything and it freaks me out. I will wake up gasping for air, grabbing my throat and trying to swallow. I will physically get up and drink pop hoping it will stop. in the end im that tired I go back to sleep and that's it.

What I don't get is. when im a wake I still think its real. and it scares the hell out of me.

Why is this.?Health Question & Answer


Answers:
Well maybe you have Sleep Apnea and are literally choking and gasping for breath during sleep, and that effects your dreams (like sometimes we hear a phone ringing and in our dream a phone rings etc, matching up with real time)

Investigate that possibility please as the condition is dangerous

All I can say is I have a similar problem. I feel as if someone is holding the back of my neck. I feel a lot of pressure and paralyzed. I cry out for someone to help but I'm mute. Then I wake up, but it feels so real I don't want to sleep anymore.

Every so often I get this dream. I hate sleeping but the longer I stay up late, the more of a chance of having this nightmare.

Strange thing is no one can help me. All the doctors have no answer other than it's a dream.
But I feel awake when this happens, sometimes seconds of just closing my eyes.

Good luck!Health Question & Answer
