Sounds like sleep anxiety, you obsess that much about heart pounding and not sleeping that you don't sleep because of your heart racing.
I suffer from it myself, you can't force yourself to sleep, you associate bed with heart racing and not sleeping, so guess what - You don't sleep because of your heart racing!
When I don't think about, not thinking about not sleeping and heart racing, I sleep!
Hello, I know you posted this quite sometime ago but I have started experiencing this at night and your description fits me to a tee. Heart pounding, sinking feeling...did you every figure out what was causing it? Thank you!
Same story here. Go to toilet, **** as much as you can and empty your stomach. It really helps.
I have experience the same thing. The worst thing is i cant sleep for 7 nights. Im totally lost and confuse
I also have this issue and my mom thinks I just have really good hearing. Sometimes when I'm in my resting state my whole body moves along with my heartbeat.I've been diagnosed with anxiety and depression and I think that's the main reason why I have this. Doctor said he didn't hear anything out of the norm but being me, I'm getting really angry about it and I want it to go away. I can't take it anymore
Many thanks for your comments, I exactly took your advice (having shower at 7pm, no any electrical or electronica equipment after shower, books only) after two nights stay-up with pounding heart beat. at first book night , I still had one or two times pounding heart beat during sleep. but it was so great that I didn't stay up nearly whole night ! then, I added some massage, and try to practice a little bit Tachi, it looks better and better. next step, I will add day exercise in!
