Specializes in Psychiatry

At midnight you can: breath in slowly & deeply through your nostrils. Fill your lungs with air (but not to the point of discomfort). Hold for a count of five then slowly begin to exhale through an open mouth. Repeat at least 12 times, longer if you need to. If you ONLY have anxiety when you have been sleeping then talk to your doctor about seeing a Sleep medicine specialist and a sleep study (polysomnogram).
