Have you ever tossed and turned in the early morning hours? Have you ever had your heart suddenly pound, your breath catch, and found yourself swept by an inexplicable terror? Is this uninvited guest arriving in your sleep familiar to you as well? We call this nocturnal terror a 'nocturnal panic attack.'

You feel suffocated and your chest tightens as if you might die, yet the hospital says nothing is wrong, leaving you feeling even more at a loss, right? You probably even lost sleep over the anxiety of wondering, 'Am I going crazy...?' It is okay; you are not the only one going through this.

Even when you repeatedly tell yourself that everything is fine, your heart may pound deep inside, and an inexplicable anxiety can quietly creep in. It feels as if your heart is drumming to an anxious beat. In a busy daily life, dismissing these signals as simple stress might cause the body to cry out even louder.

Have you ever experienced a moment when your heart suddenly felt like it was going to burst, your breath caught in your throat, and cold sweat poured across your entire body?

How can we understand and soothe this unpredictably racing heart?

Have you ever experienced your mind suddenly going blank, stumbling over words, and slurring right before an important presentation?

Have you ever felt your heart suddenly drop, struggled to breathe, and felt overwhelmed by anxiety, wondering if you were the only one suffering like this?
