Its a revolting horrible feeling that comes and goes. I have managed my mental health pretty well over the last few years but night time its horrific. I have vivid dreams, night sweats, feel horrible and this can effect my mood in the day and sorry to day pretty negative in the morning.

I am not overly concerned or have anxiety about anything I am far from neurotic and at the moment not depressed but this 'revolting fear' is so disgusting you cant explain it.

I am not on any meds as I never really got on with them plus the side effects. I have a tight chest and shoulders today I am pretty energy less and feel rubbish.

Any advice or help appreciated.

So what is it about night time which makes it feel worse?

Could this be panic attacks? This would fit with your description of it coming and going and the sense of foreboding that goes with it. Sometimes stress is masked from us and then comes up in vivid dreams and episodes like this. I am not surprised that there is some overhang the next day.

Do you feel able to go to your G.P?
