it sounds like you are having panic attacks in the middle of the night. ativan is an ok temporary solution, there are other medications that can help with this like zoloft, paxil, etc.
I will usually try a heart monitor to make sure nothing else is going on, but it really sounds like panic attacks.
Thanks for posting.
Thank You for your reply. Is there any way to reduce the panic attaks without taking medications like zoloft, paxil etc?
