In reply to developing psychosis or panic attacks?, posted by porkpiehat on June 27, 2016, at 17:27:33

I agree that it's panic and panic induced derealization. I don't know why this happens so strongly at night, unless your anxiety levels are very high. Do you have a sleep disorder like sleep apnea?

> I've been having incidences of almost psychadelic (not hallucinatory just trippy in feeling)feeling that I'm losing control/going crazy and nonsensical thinking lately.

> I've always had night terrors that were very similar but abate within a few minutes after waking. Lately this feeling of being extinguished/slipping out of my body/going insane will continue for an hour or more after I wake up and as soon as I drift back into sleep it recurs immediately, along with an electric feeling on the left side of my brain and body.

> Lately this feeling has intruded into waking hours. I don't know how to quantify this feeling that "I'm losing control/my mind/reality" and "his face looks funny I almost don't understand it." But it seems to respond pretty quickly to even low doses of klonopin.
