Dormir loin de chez soi

J'ai remarqué que les trois dernières fois où j'ai dormi loin de chez moi, je me suis réveillé en me sentant nerveux, ayant toujours des frissons ou des nausées, puis je commence à paniquer complètement. J'ai dormi lors d'un événement avec ma fille ce week-end et j'ai fini par faire les cent pas dans la salle de bain pendant 30 minutes en attendant que l'Ativan fasse effet. J'ai réussi à passer à travers, et cela n'a pas dégénéré, mais je dois voyager pour le travail cet été et je m'inquiète déjà d'avoir ces moments là-bas.  Quelqu'un peut-il m'aider ou a-t-il vécu la même chose ?

Looks like you're anxious about staying other places than home, therefore you have those anxieties and this might cause the panic attack and anxiety disorders when you're not home. There are some anxiety coping strategies that you could try, but I see you've got ativan (lorazepam-benzodiazepines​) prescribed from your doctor. Try not to worry about this too much, check for side effects of what you taking and maybe talk to your doctor as it might not be right for you?

​Take care,

Yes!! Me too!! Actually, my first panic attack happened when I was staying away with work. I know what this was now but at the time I actually thought that I was going to die. I'm very reluctant to sleep away from home as I feel safe there and also struggle to stay at home without my partner - I think that I'm worried that the same thing will happen and I won't cope without someone to talk me round. My councillor has suggested that I need to keep trying to stay away, at first with my partner or friends and gradually build up to staying somewhere close to home but on my own. She has said that the more you don't do something the more the fear can build up around doing it, like a vicious circle which makes sense.

Je suis d'accord, cela a du sens. C'est un sentiment terrible à avoir quand on ne se sent pas en sécurité chez soi. J'ai récemment vu une publicité pour une couverture anti-orages, similaire à la veste pour chiens, lol, c'est une couverture lourde qui est censée avoir un effet apaisant. Je pourrais essayer ça. J'ai aussi envisagé de demander à mon médecin un somnifère à prendre uniquement les nuits où je pourrais avoir un sommeil plus réparateur pour ne pas me réveiller dans la peur.

Hi,

It has been helpful for me to read your message.  Over the past 8 years,  I have often experienced great anxiety about sleeping away from home. It often makes me hesitate about travelling or making different plans.  I have spent a lot of time being very judgemental towards myself and feeling alone in this fear.  It has been a relief for me to know that I am not the only one.
