Panic attacks - anyone suffer?

I get a dead arm quite a lot at night - sleeping on it funny - wake up and think I've stopped breathing/having a heart attack - not funny at the time but looking back it amuses me I have to lift my 'dead' arm out of the way often and it feels like it doesn't belong to me

There's a name for that - 'drunk's palsy'. Got to be a bit careful, in the long run. Getting pissed and numbing one arm on a regualar basis can cause it to eventually die off if you're not careful. Try to go to sleep facing the other way, and maybe hold a pillow to stop you rolling over.

nott suggesting you're a pisshead, but you can never be too careful...

As for feelings of doom, I generally refer to it as THE FEAR. I will have a guaranteed dose of THE FEAR in about 12 hours time, and I'll be grinding my teeth to a fine powder as I try to stop myself running from the room, screaming and gibbering.
Unfortunately, the evening me hates the morning me, so I'll keep drinking more than is healthy for a Sunday until I stagger off to bed at midnight and rise at 5, feeling saturated in horror.

Chin chin.
