  • Answer:

    Is this what you're looking for? http://www.anxietycare.org.uk/docs/sleep.asp#panic It's a little over halfway down the page There are also things like night terrors which are like nightmares but you can be up with your eyes open and not aware at all because you're still dreaming. People also get sleep paralysis sometimes and this can cause panic because you can't move and sometimes you still see things that you may when you are dreaming, like monsters.

Sleep panic disorder? I know there are different types of sleep disorders: narcolepsy, parasomnias, insomnias, hypersomnia, etc. Panic disorders are related to anxiety/stress disorders. They are usually differentiated from anxiety disorders by onset (panic attacks occur very quickly) and severity (panic is more disabling than anxiety) Sleep panic sounds like night-terrors. I think night terrors are a type of "parasomnias". Sleep walking and bedwetting (enuierisis or something) may be other parasomnias. Sleep apnea may have a panic/anxiety component due to either body mechanics (the body wakes itself up due to the sympathetic nervous system innervation as a result of apnea). You should research subjects like: psychopathology of sleep disorders, parasomnias, cataplexy (although I think cataplexy is a symptom of narcolepsy). There are many different types of sleep disorders. Panic disorders are a separate diagnosis. Complex post traumatic stress disorder, acute traumatic stress disorder, ptsd and some stress disorder not otherwise specified (NOS) may also have sleep-panic states due to retraumatization and night mares, night terrors, dreams, etc
