Hi everyone, I am a newbie something has been happening to me in my sleep & it is scary, I figured maybe someone in the group would know. Okay here goes I fall asleep start to dream & then I start to hyperventilate I keep on trying to catch my breath I am totally aware of this & it always happens when I am dreaming, it is scary because I cannot catch that breath. If anyone can help please I would like your advice, also this does not happen everynight, maybe twice a week.

Hi Pacots.

First a few questions:

Have you been diagnosed w/ apnea?
If so, are you currently using a CPAP machine?

If you have not been diagnosed it could be apnea or another disorder but to be helpful we would need a bit more details.
